    I mean. I’m a policy guy, that’s what I look for in a candidate.

    But realistically, the more Kamala stays away from policy the better.this isn’t the beginning of a game where it’s zero to zero and anything can happen.

    Dems have the ball on our own 20 yard and we’re up a field goal with 10 seconds left.

    And it’s still first down, no timeouts left.

    Taking a knee and running out the clock for the guaranteed win is the smart move.

    Kamala isn’t trying to win an election, she’s trying not to fuck up an almost guaranteed win. So in this very specific set of circumstances, not only can she win with just vibes, it’s her best bet.

    Now after she wins…

    That’s when she needs to go policy heavy, and have plans drafted up so that they day she takes office, all the shit that was too progressive for Biden gets done. Deregulating weed alone would kill any “Kamala the cop” nonsense, start public fights over housing pricing, taxing the wealthy, universal Medicare, all that shit.

    Even if the stuff she needs legislation for, coming out swinging like that and pushing for votes to be held so that it’s clear who’s stopping what would easily carry over to midterm games.

    Just fucking rinse and repeat till we get the numbers. Voters don’t need to see wins, legit effort is enough. She just needs to fight for the people loudly and proudly so everyone sees it.

    Dem incumbents usually lose seats in the midterms, because voters feel abandoned right after an election.

    Kamala is 20 years younger than Biden, she can put in the effort. Pull out the ole “fireside chat’s” even, every week address the nation with an update on what Dems want to do, and who exactly is stopping it.

    But em on fucking blast, media will run with it.
