I finally understand what “Vote blue no matter who” means. They’re all the same.

She’s taken AIPAC money, she’s drank the koolaid. She can’t go back now. Most of them have, we saw what happened to most of those who didn’t. Our politicians are all bought and paid for, dont ever forget that and let’s get rid of FPTP so we the people can end this corruption. And if that doesnt work, well, you’ll find me ravenous outside of Citizens United.

Edit: go ahead and downvote but at least look with your fucken eyeballs. AIPAC didn’t blow hundreds of millions on our elections because they dont matter. Theres a purpose there.

Its also that as Vice President she’s a member of the United States Cabinet and United States National Security Council. Who do you think has been making the policy in Bidens administration?

Anyone that convinced themselves she would 180 on her own national security decisions has been delusional.

She was never going to flip. This isn’t about her flipping. Its about the fact nearly all of our leadership will support Gaza being flattened, and the Palestinians being eradicated.

Write to and call your representative. That’s how politicians know you’re upset.

Has anyone here done either of those things?

Yeah, genocide support is a bedrock principle, unlike things she has flipped on, like M4A and banning fracking.

Those aren’t moves to the right. That’s just the status quo under Biden/Harris

This is who she’s always been. Find speeches of hers back when she was in California, they’re just as right wing as she is right now.

I’d be curious on examples.

Edit: Down voted but no examples given. Sad but expected.
