If she’s elected president, Kamala Harris pledges to spend hundreds of millions of dollars on the wall along the southern border — a project she once opposed and called “un-American” during the Trump administration.

      The vast majority who want the wall will never vote D…

      And most people who would only vote D, don’t want the wall

      We keep fucking giving Republicans what they want, even when they lose

      Which depresses Dem turnout, and gets republicans in office.

      And the country keeps marching right.

        She has professional teams doing polls and assesing what people want. So maybe their assesment disagree with yours?

          polls and assesing what people want.

          Again, almost all Republicans want the wall, and some “moderates”.

          That may mean over 50% of Americans, but it’s not over 50% of people who would ever in any circumstances vote D.

          Which is why I said

          We keep fucking giving Republicans what they want, even when they lose

          Which depresses Dem turnout, and gets republicans in office.

          Like, I feel that I’ve already put that as simplely as possible, I can’t do anymore if you really don’t get it

          i cant think kf another reason

          The thought that a politician would do what her billionaire donors want and not what her voting base wants…

          That’s not something you could think of?

          It’s not exactly a rare thing man, shit happens frustratingly often, but it never even crossed your mind why a Dem.politican would go against their base is the half a billion dollars they just raised in a country where the do or limit is essentially a million dollars a head in 2024?

          Your mind just draws a blank when you contemplate why that could happen?

              You know trump gave so much money to Dems that Bill and Hillary showed up to one of his weddings right?

              Lots of shitty billionaires give millions of dollars to both parties to ensure what they want will happen, regardless of who wins an election.

              And this may shock you. But sometimes wealthy people are shitty and want shitty things.
