I mean, as much as he's right about Trump, "all talk" and appointing Walz is literally what we've gotten from Harris so far..

Don't get me wrong, I'm encouraged and cautiously optimistic by her talk, especially her being the first ever presidential candidate to mention security and self determination of Palestinians in a speech and I'm delighted by her wonderful VP pick, but let's not start celebrating her accomplishments before she actually accomplishes them..

In a way, having anyone other than trump is an accomplishment in itself. Better to stay where you are then to move a thousand steps backwards.

Absolutely. Both of my cats are more competent than Trump and one sometimes misses the litter box.

Not to mention that he's actively malevolent and would have much more help from COMPETENT monsters this time around.

Yeah, during one of her first speeches after Biden stepped down 🙂
