Let's pretend for one moment that he does die before the election, just for the funsies. What happens then? Will the nomination revert to option number 2, aka Bernie Sanders? Or will his running mate automatically replace him just the way Vice-President is supposted to step in after the Big Man in the White House chokes on a piece of matzo? Does he even have a running mate yet?
 
Watch the DNC try to spin her as the an staunch BLM advocate due to her skin color alone and completely memory-hole her history as a corrupt prosecutor and label anyone who tries to bring it up as a crazy conspiracy theorist.

She's hilldawg 2.0 with a darker shade of paint and without the billions to afford shotgun suicide dissenters.
 
The problem IMO with assuming that Harris is a 'bad choice' is assuming that low-information normies will know enough about her checkered past- which is questionable. At a skin-deep glance, she fills all the DNC categories, and is uniquely suited to target swing states, women, and suburbs- aka the purplish regions.

I fully expect an intensification of the already ongoing media-driven glow-up to further transform her into the candidate of the moderate suburban soccer moms, and the nullification of her past by obfuscation and full-scale 1984-esque revisionism.

As such, my gut feeling is that any sort of counter-narrative will be from Trump's ads, Fox News, and the VP debates. The internet will be a complete wasteland unless you know where to look.
That's essentially what they tried to do with Hillary. Trump will do well to remember the tricks he used in 2016, because they'll probably be useful now.

Except that checkered past was brought up in the primary debates, and was a major reason why she dropped out before the end of last year. It's not just the GOP that's going to be bringing it up, too-- the far left factions of the Democrat party are going to be in a perma-tizzy over it.
 
The question isn't about getting the black vote. It's about getting enough black Americans to vote in the first place.

It's why Trump's (and the GOP's strategy, really) primary strategy re: the black voting bloc is to disillusion them, and then attempt to collect whatever few voters they can as a "bonus".

That is the truth of it all. Only around 61% of eligible black voters actually voted in 2016, which is slightly lower than previous years. Doing the math of eligible black voters in the US, that's nearly 6,000,000 that probably didn't/don't vote. That number will probably stay, if not grow higher, as a result of this decision.
 
What are we looking at here guys? Can these braindead leftists sellout even further?
A rift that I don't think they fully understand, yet.

Look at it like this: Neither of the die-hards on either side of the fence care. Trump could appoint his socks as VP and Biden could appoint his front lawn; blue's going to vote blue, red's going to vote red. Neither of these camps are the majority, though, and even within their own respective parties there's a lot of wiggle room, and in the Undecided Middle, there's a chasm.

Does Biden appointing the literal, polar opposite of the point that BLM was even rioting over make a difference to the die-hard Democrats? No, they'll bend their brain into a pretzel to justify it because Orange Man Bad dominates every inch of their grey matter. They were never going to change. The people who aren't in that camp-- and there are a lot of those Democrats (Hello, I was one of them)--are going to look at this and raise an eyebrow; they're going to look at this and have second thoughts because Kamala Harris exudes the personality of someone hungry for power, even outside of her obviously horrible past. Even in the Left-leaning Hellscape that is Twitter, we're already seeing people grinding their teeth and trying to avoid exploding.

What's the potential damage here for Trump, that the die-hards aren't going to vote for him? That was never going to happen. Now, what's the potential damage for Biden? How many people might splinter off into third-party out of protest or just sit the vote out entirely due to a lack of faith? The majority of the country doesn't have mouth-foaming TDS, you can't rely on that as your strategy. Even inside of the microcosm of the Kiwi Farms: Look around. Find someone on the Left that's excited about this.

This does nothing to damage the potential voting blocs for Trump, and has a massive potential to cause a split inside of the DNC. The TV is still telling me that I need to be worried, but for some reason I can't stop laughing. I can't wait to watch all of these Antifa and BLM rioters pivot on a dime and start sucking Kamala's non-existent cop dick, though. Now that's going to be a riot. :coster:

This is a massive win for Trump, all he has to do is run adds for the next 2 months in any city in a swing state with 2 Things

Joe Biden talking about The 90s Crime Reform Bill, and putting Images of Kamala in her Cop outfit on the screen. He no longer needs to convince Black Voters to come over to the GOP. He now only has to convince them to stay home, and if Biden Pulls Black Numbers like Hillary did both Biden AND the down ticket lose.
 
Kamala might sound like a terrible choice on paper, but never under-estimate the twitterati's amoralism. They don't have principles. They don't have standards. They will do whatever it takes to win. They think themselves into logical pretzals all the time, be it the costings for free college, healthcare, open borders, crime and punishment--etc. They may claim to be free thinkers but they only get to feel smart by agreeing with the smart people on TV. When the smart TV people stopped talking about the Russia hoax so did they. When the TV said the riots were Trump's fault they said the same. When the talk show hosts advocated ground troops in Syria, where were their principles? There weren't any. Because defeating Trump is all that matters, and these people will defame and cancel anybody who questions that.
So when Kamala Harris is made the shadow President, these #VoteBlue advocates are gonna fall in line. They may grumble, but they've been trained to hate Republicans and will champion a brave brown/black womyn for what she is on a census form andwho she opposes and because the smart TV people said so, and it doesn't matter her record involves diligently cooking books and exploiting institutions as the AG to ruin thousands of lives. She has, in the last decade, done the very things BLM accuses the police of doing, and what liberals have smugly accused Republicans of wishing to do. It does not matter. They don't give a fuck.

But you already knew that. I mean, how couldn't you?
None of what you're saying here is "wrong," but this doesn't matter. The people you're talking about are either sure-fire Biden voters, or at best, people who might not vote. The thing is that this will not make those of them who might not vote decide to vote, but much more importantly, these are not the people who are largely affected here. The issue with Presidential elections is the swing states. It's not about twitter liberals, but moderates in swing states. Biden wins by doing two things:

1) getting more support from the base (more of the base comes out to vote)
2) more independents/normies vote Dem rather than Rep

From that perspective, it doesn't seem to make a ton of sense. Biden's not exactly the darling of much of the base, sure, but he's proved significantly more popular than Harris. The same is true with independents/normies. With all that said, I'm still not confident in the Trump campaign strictly due to his negative popularity with a large proportion of the voter base. Still and all, I find it hard to view Harris as anything but a net-negative for Biden. I am and live among midwestern whites, and I definitely get the impression that the prospect of a Harris Presidency is worrying to a large portion of them.

Oh they'll find out. Tulsi made sure of that. Her segment from the debate is a picture perfect ad for Trump lol.
 
The main benefit with Kamala is that it allows the media to deflect any and all negative comments towards Biden/Harris with RACIST! SEXIST! FIRST BLACK WOMAN PRESIDENT! And while she can be off-putting, she's still a relatively attractive woman so most will go along with this, unlike if it was some fat/ugly woman where there'd be more of a silent disdain that shows in the polls. Kamala might be an effective counter to Trump's bullying asshole shenanigans along with Biden being the senile old man and the media helping them out obviously.

As for appealing to moderates or the more extreme progressives, damned if you do or don't. I would never choose to try appealing to younger voters.

Really, this is all about the establishment getting their top prize horse Kamala in, and they know she likely can't win a primary in her life. It's probably been the plan since February. They saw a chance when fucking over Bernie again and they're going to run with it.
 
If Kamala assumes the throne after Biden croaks, can she still run for President twice more? Could she be a 3 termer? Or are the rules setup to prevent that?
There is technically precedent of it being counted a term.

As Theodore Roosevelt only ran for 1 additional term.

That said there isn't any actual supreme court ruling on it.
 
That is the truth of it all. Only around 61% of eligible black voters actually voted in 2016, which is slightly lower than previous years. Doing the math of eligible black voters in the US, that's nearly 6,000,000 that probably didn't/don't vote. That number will probably stay, if not grow higher, as a result of this decision.

It’s double that number. 30 million eligible black voters expected in 2020. Only 59% voted in 2016, meaning around 11-12 million black voters sat out.

I think the "racist"/"sexist" card is already well played out. The only people who screech and care about those terms are already firmly on the left, and the far-left already has no qualms about criticizing Kamala. I think with the current political climate, swing voters are getting fatigued with all the political correctness too.

What is a Biden/Harris ticket going to offer that's positive? What are they offering undecideds besides "we're not Cheeto Hitler!"? I mean, is a smarmy California senator really going to appeal to the voters of Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota?

Wow. He picked a double-token (Female, PoC), which is expected.

But he predictably fucked up and picked one who's both such a transparent Socialist AND so well-known for being a blatantly corrupt prosecutor that she was poison in the primaries.

He's REALLY banking on the double-token to carry him.
