Kamala is Superman now? I'll give libs thinking Trump is Lex Luthor because they have scared themselves into believing Donald Trump of all people is smart or capable. The amount they over estimate this elderly nincompoop is genuinely insane.

Kamala also isn't fucking Superman cause Superman goes around doing good and helpful stuff. Superman would also fucking never run for president and being from not even earth kinds disqualifies him but that's beside the point. The fundamental metaphor of Superman is that he as one dude embodies what we could all accomplish together, the guy has said so pretty blatantly on many occasions. Aside from when they bring aliens into it and whatever (it's superman, he'd fomr everything so I'm going for core character here), if we got our shit together superman wouldn't be necessary. Maybe to save some cats stuck in trees cause flying or whatever but you get it.

Yeah, I was trying to explain to someone that Harris, as a reasonably smart and competent cop, has far more potential to cause harm than Trump could dream of. She actually knows how the US's police state functions, speaks cop, and can presumably wield it more effectively than Obama, Trump, or Biden. She's also, like, relatively young and in good cognitive health.

Re: Aliens lol isn't her border policy something like "kill them all and let god sort them out?"

You reminded me of the town hall where newsy Steve martin asked her about whether they need a border wall and the discussion went something like: 'trump was bad at it.' 'But do we need it' 'Democrats are better at building it. Remember how much of a liar Trump is?'
