I don’t give af what their reasons are Dick Cheney is one of the worst people on the planet. It is easy not to stand by him. But I’m fine with voting third party this point. I don’t want to be allies with liberals who will throw anyone under the bus to retain comfort.
“I don’t like that one of the worst people in the world is advocating for a candidate, and I’m not going tk vote for that candidate because of this- even though *the other candidates is objectively far worse than the guy I hate”
Is how I interpret that.
Throw your vote away if you want. Just don’t whine here when trump wins because of you.
Trump’s rise is literally because of Dems lack of action results for poor and working class people. Harris is closer to him on Policy than anyone else. Even Trump said so at the debate, and she is still building the wall. You guys don’t have Trump as much as you claim.
You literally just posted a topic about Trump beating Harris in a battleground state poll. And another about good news for Trump. Along with a stream of other posts that seems curated to talk about bad signs for Harris.
You don’t just post random political news from across a range of topics, you post stuff that talks about Harris being weak.
If you were confident Harris would win, why would it be interesting that a poll showed her down in a crucial state? Why would it be interesting that fewer Democrats are registered to vote? She’s supposedly got it in the bag, so none of these things would matter.
I think Trump winning is a very real possibility. It looks a lot more likely than 2020 and that was a razor thin victory.
A reasonable political observer does not have enough information to make a prediction either way at this point. It’s not even a “probably Harris will win, but Trump still has a shot”, it’s an actual toss up.
Yeah having his daughter who defended all of his bad actions on your events isn’t standing by him and he going on about how honored she is. Liberals will literally work with fascists. Malcolm X was correct long ago. Vote for who you want best of luck.
No, this is a situation where the dems need to get as many votes as possible, and you’re underestimating the voting power of old people.
The dems are accepting the Cheney’s support specifically to wake up some moderate, old conservatives who would otherwise vote reflexively for trump simply because of the R after his name.
This isn’t an ideological move, but a purely political one. Politics is not always tasteful. Ideological purity is useless against actual, real-life fascism, and it’s a strategic move. Reality isn’t always rainbows and unicorns.
It isn’t ideological purity. The only people who give up ground is Dems that is why the GOP can dog walk them while going on about space lazers and weather control. There should be some limits when it comes to people like Dick Cheney getting a pass. I’ve done the whole vote for the lesser evil. I’m good. I’ll do what I can locally and vote down ballot for in local elections.
When Trump can come out call Harris for adopting his policies and she has nothing to say back. I’m good. I don’t support right-wingers even with (D) next to their name.
genocide jill is perfectly fine with genocides except for the one that’s hot in the news right now.
by the way, those people are who are being genocided in the genocide hot in the news right now? they support kamala harris.
you don’t care about genocide. especially that one. because if you did you would be voting for her. it’s either you hate israel or you just refuse to vote for a black woman or you want to vote for trump or some combination of the 3.
It could be Harris if she decides to change course She wants to earn support and the ball is in her court. She can do things for the mythical centrist Dick Cheney voter. Then asking for her to follow international law and stop being active in genocide isn’t much.
This whole topic is the same people who make excuses for why the Cheney endorsements are good (or at a minimum irrelevant) saying how David Duke’s endorsement should make people supporting Jill Stein think twice.
Jill Stein is a grifter and a spoiler working to advance conservative causes, but the hypocrisy here is breathtaking.
There’s a very clear difference: Stein is a well-documented, intentional spoiler who’s funding comes primarily from Republican mega-donors and Russian interests, and who recently said out loud her purpose isn’t to advance her party but exclusively to block Harris.
Her track record makes that endorsement poignant.
If she was sincere and didn’t already align with fascist interests, we wouldn’t care what Nazis say about her.
Horrible person endorses candidate I like: “you can help who endorses you, it doesn’t mean anything about their values”. Horrible person endorses candidate I don’t like: “see, if you support them you’re in bed with [the KKK/war criminals]”.
If she was sincere and didn’t already align with fascist interests, we wouldn’t care what Nazis say about her.
If Harris was a progressive peacenik who didn’t seem open to aligning with neocon foreign policy, no one would think anything of welcoming Cheney into her campaign.
It’s the same exact reasoning, just reformulated for whether you like the candidate in question.
And anyone who doesn’t agree with the echo chamber, is a “Trumper” or works “for the Russians” or my personal fav, “posting/commenting in bad faith.” lol

Correct!
Trump’s not gonna win tho.
You literally just posted a topic about Trump beating Harris in a battleground state poll. And another about good news for Trump. Along with a stream of other posts that seems curated to talk about bad signs for Harris.
So? It’s political news. And it doesn’t change my mind: I think Trump will lose.
Do you think Trump will win?
You don’t just post random political news from across a range of topics, you post stuff that talks about Harris being weak.

I post political news articles that I find interesting. Has nothing to do with the fact that I think Trump will lose.
So you said him winning is a possibility. But do you think he will win? I don’t.
A reasonable political observer does not have enough information to make a prediction either way at this point. It’s not even a “probably Harris will win, but Trump still has a shot”, it’s an actual toss up.
Ok, well I guess I’m an unreasonable political observer, because I don’t think Trump will win. :)
You don’t know that.
Do you honestly think he is going to win?
I honestly thought he wasn’t going to win in 2016. I was wrong.
This election hinges on a hair. Everyone who’s not got a bridge to sell you is saying that, and you think you can predict the outcome?
I’m not buying any bridges. I don’t know who’s going to win, and neither do you or anyone else.
Yes, I am predicting the outcome: Trump won’t win.
Feel free to save my post for proof.
There’s a resort in Arizona that once bought a bridge. Maybe you can sell them another…
Edit: I think you know it’s too close to call which is why you’re doing your damndest to get any one to not vote for Harris.
Doesn’t change the fact that I don’t think Trump is gonna win.
Lol like you’ll be here after the election
Do you think all my favorite socialist issues will go away after the election?!
Nobody is ‘standing by him’. Hitler liked dogs. Am I supposed to hate dogs because Hitler ‘stood by’ them?
I couldn’t give less of a fuck who the Cheneys support. Their opinions don’t factor into my choices at all.
Yeah having his daughter who defended all of his bad actions on your events isn’t standing by him and he going on about how honored she is. Liberals will literally work with fascists. Malcolm X was correct long ago. Vote for who you want best of luck.

We all know who you really want in power. Transparent as fucking glass.
A person who isn’t backing genocide and with an agenda for working class and poor people. Pretty lowbar.
genocide jill is perfectly fine with genocides except for the one that’s hot in the news right now.
by the way, those people are who are being genocided in the genocide hot in the news right now? they support kamala harris.
you don’t care about genocide. especially that one. because if you did you would be voting for her. it’s either you hate israel or you just refuse to vote for a black woman or you want to vote for trump or some combination of the 3.
I’m black why would I vote for Harris just because she is black and an active member of ongoing genocide? We’re not monolith.
And who is that?
It could be Harris if she decides to change course She wants to earn support and the ball is in her court. She can do things for the mythical centrist Dick Cheney voter. Then asking for her to follow international law and stop being active in genocide isn’t much.

LOL, no there isn’t.

Harris has not “aligned with” any Cheney or other neocon. Stop pretending that you don’t understand how electoral politics works.
Yep! Insane hypocrisy around these parts.
And anyone who doesn’t agree with the echo chamber, is a “Trumper” or works “for the Russians” or my personal fav, “posting/commenting in bad faith.” lol
