The idea that that the process of jettisoning Biden & choosing someone else will go well -- will be allowed to go well -- is a deeply deranged fantasy. [ David Roberts ] (threadreaderapp.com)

Their opponent is a felon, rapist, accused pedophile, with a record of taking away women's rights.

Kamala is sometimes rude.

You see how that doesn't really compare? Especially given she doesn't have to sell a policy agenda of her own, she just has to lay down how she's going to keep Biden's winning agenda on track.

Also a fake progressive and a former chief cop who lengthened the sentences of penal slaves because the state was saving money forcing them to fight fires and who was notoriously overzealous in prosecuting cannabis crimes and has not apologized or even admitted fault on either.

You're right that she's still a fucking saint compared to Trump and whichever crazy person he'll choose as VP, though.

I do, but unfortunately not everyone does.

She'd be by far the lesser evil, but it wouldn't be a done deal, since much of the electorate are fickle idiots who believe the horserace narrative of the media and have the memories of gnats. She probably couldn't afford to be too closely associated with the very unpopular current president during the campaign to replace him.
