    She’d better start at 150%, going out the gate guns blazing, sights focused on being louder than the Republicans are used to.

    The Dems are too soft spoken; they need to be more fierce, especially against the trump party of the last few years.

      I hate to engage in stereotype, but I really hope Kamala Harris plays up the black woman trope of being vocal and adamant about calling out the bullshit they know everyone can see. We’ve had too many white male presidents who embody the white male trope of failing upwards.

        That would be really interesting and fun to watch. But cue the “You see this angry black woman 🖐️, typical black woman, we all know it 🫲🫱, totally unhinged👌, imagine the damage she would do, clearly 🫲🫱 unfit to be president.”

          The hands really sold it for me holy shit that’s hilariously awful.

          I don’t think that kind of response will sway any voters toward Trump who were otherwise undecided, and might push more black Trump voters (I doubt there are many of them left) to switch to supporting Kamala instead

          You say that like this isn’t the game plan no matter what Harris does. Why concern yourself with what Republicans will do when you already know it will be the option only a huge piece of shit would pick?

        I think in this case it would be flexing her DA skills.
