Unless they just decide not to run primaries there's no shot. She couldn't even win her home state last time and dropped out to save herself the embarrassment

Unless they just decide not to run primaries

... Again

Maybe she can put out another staged video of Obama talking down to black men for not wanting to vote for her.

straight up dropped the day before California's deadline to have your name removed from the ballot

[–] blipblip@hexbear.net 21 points 5 hours ago

Damn I didn't remember it was that blatant lmao

[–] GoodGuyWithACat@hexbear.net 4 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

She didn't have name recognition back then and the party didn't have a reason to rally around her. Now, especially if she becomes governor of California, she's the path of least resistance.

[–] Runcible@hexbear.net 9 points 3 hours ago

Name recognition is important but she's also the only Democrat to have lost the popular vote in my lifetime so worth considering a blank slate is better

[–] glimmer_twin@hexbear.net 6 points 3 hours ago

the path of least resistance.

Smh so much for #resist

HAHAHAHAHHAHA IT WAS A DEBATE! IT WAS A DEBATE! AND THERE WERE JOURNALISTS THERE COVERING THE DEBATE. AND IN A DEBATE WHEN YOUR OPPONENT FOUGHT FOR SEGREGATION YOU CAN'T WIN THE RACISTS OVER. SO YOU PRETEND TO BE SLIGHTLY LESS RACIST

you don't understand having a strong and lethal military is the cornerstone of right and left wing ideologies

Someone arguing about how she lost when pointing out she ran on a mostly gop lite platform

[–] TommyBeans@hexbear.net 24 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

The dems will run Harris because they want to lose in order for them to not be at the helm for WW3.

[–] TheLepidopterists@hexbear.net 21 points 5 hours ago

Democrats will do literally anything other than demand that the genocide end.

[–] brain_in_a_box@hexbear.net 21 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

I'm starting to wonder if they ran her in 2024 because they wanted to not be at the helm of the continuing genocide

[–] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 17 points 5 hours ago

That would be more plausible if chuck and others weren't out saying they were just in power to make Israel look good/do PR

[–] BigMacHole@lemm.ee 28 points 6 hours ago

They Learned a LOT! AND if you Donate a Couple more Dollars they'll Learn even MORE!

[–] kleeon@hexbear.net 39 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

awesome. hope she loses again

[–] plinky@hexbear.net 23 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

she would eat shit in primary tbh (if it happens)

[–] crusa187@lemmy.ml 8 points 3 hours ago

Last one that wasn’t a proven sham was in what, 2008? Not holding my breath for Dems to be democratic any time soon.

No. She CANNOT win.

[–] conditional_soup@lemm.ee 27 points 6 hours ago

Controlled opposition alright

[–] eldavi@lemmy.ml 38 points 7 hours ago (3 children)

-- and the fact that she literally did nothing to stop a genocide won't factor into it at all.

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 10 points 4 hours ago

Yup somehow that's still our fault.

Watching liberals barely contain their glee about what's happening so they can say "we told you so" even though nobody thought they wouldn't do that has really reaffirmed my belief it was the right move.

[–] brain_in_a_box@hexbear.net 26 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

More then that, she actively supported a genocide

[–] Sinisterium@hexbear.net 15 points 5 hours ago

She was the second highest ranking us official during the start of the recent gaza genocide. She was already an accomplish when she ran for president.

[–] AernaLingus@hexbear.net 19 points 6 hours ago

Deeply unserious

[–] miz@hexbear.net 45 points 8 hours ago

lol do it. she will eat shit even harder

[–] RangerJosey@lemmy.ml 36 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

I'm not against her specifically. I'm against her nonsense DNC appointed policy. Running to the right had never once been a winning strategy. The entire Schumer Strategy is a unmitigated failure.

Run on progressive policy and you cannot lose. It took the entire Democratic machine to stop Sanders.

The DNC is a Corporation. It's full name as shown in court documents is the DNC Services Corp. They are controlled opposition. If they lose, it's because they chose to. It is a conscious decision on their part. They have the numbers. The analytics. The polling. They know how to win. They know how to keep control indefinitely and they actively choose not to because their own interests as a corporation line up with republican fiscal policy. Tax cuts and empire. Those are the frontline policies that matter to them. It's why they appear toothless. It's why Schumer is sending "strongly worded" letters to Chump instead of rallying democrats to play hardball. It's why they're all desperate to stop David Hogg from going after those do nothing democrats.

I'm not against her specifically.

Why not? Her history as DA and AG is terrible, even if her policies weren't outright absurd she's proven herself to be irredeemable and untrustworthy.

[–] Owl@hexbear.net 29 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Given the pool of candidates the dems want to draw from, is irredeemable and untrustworthy really all that specific?

[–] RangerJosey@lemmy.ml 18 points 5 hours ago

No. Not in the slightest.
