  • Donors did everything they could to keep Biden in. Even after Biden ‘beat medicare’ in his debate with Trump he got backing from the establishment.

    The establishment ditched Biden solely because had no shot at beating Trump. No matter how much he was the perfect ghoul puppet, if he can’t win there’s nothing for his donors to control.

    Both parties are trying to sell votes to the highest bidders. Their goal is to sell out as much as possible while still winning the election. But they are now straddling so close to that line that they need to make compromises.

    Many immigrants tried to vote Democrat in 2020 only to be met with “build the wall”. Muslims loyally voted Democrat and were met with Genocide in Palestine. When politicians don’t get punished for going against their voters interests they only learn to keep doing it. After all why should they listen to their base if they keep voting for them

    Don’t think that’s the perfect fit either, it’s more suited for someone accidentally saying a full sentence admitting their crime. Like Trump accidentally admitting he lost the election.

    While israel is condemning their warrant, they are not admitting they are guilty.

    Not at all. Harris is as much of a corporate ghoul as Biden.

    2019 - ‘More AIPAC Than J Street’: Kamala Harris Runs to the Right on Foreign Policy

    In her very first foreign policy vote in January 2017, for instance, Harris sided with President Trump in criticizing the outgoing President Obama’s refusal to veto an otherwise-unanimous, very modest, and largely symbolic UN Security Council resolution on Israeli settlements. Among other things, that resolution reiterated previous Security Council calls for Israel to stop expanding its illegal settlements in the occupied West Bank, which violate the Fourth Geneva Convention and a landmark ruling by the International Court of Justice.

    Sadly the people at the top of the party are those receiving the shady money. I don’t see a path to fix corruption by voting for the people most benefiting from corruption. It is a catch22.

    There wasn’t even a real Democratic primary this time around. Just the establishment appointing Harris and telling everyone to get aboard.
