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?

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.

Kamala is also a Soros cock sucker.

There are people on Twitter who think that Pence won't destroy Harris during the VP Debates.

And there's plenty of shit to hit her on. Gabbard was actually going easy on her. Her record is abysmal. She tried to keep a man who was declared innocent and ordered released in prison for the rest of his life because he missed a filing deadline. It took him 4 more years of fighting to get out. She's power-hungry trash and her record reflects it.

Are you saying that a Debate between Kamala and Pence will end with with Pence giving Kamala some conversion therapy?

And none of that stuff will ever hit the MSM unless Trump makes it a point to hammer on that early and often.
 
What was Pence's criminal justice record when he was Governor of Indiana, anyway? I'm not expecting anything particularly mindblowing from an establishment conservative christian republican but it'd be hilarious if despite that he was still better than Biden and Kamala.
 
Smug Cat powiedział(a):
I'm hard LOLing at the people in the replies going "Wow I can't believe he accused him of racism after he just picked a black wammen for VP!!!?!?!?" The absolute pretzels these people will twist themselves into, now they're unironically saying having a black friend makes you not racist :story:

Trump has flatly said that Harris was the pick he was hoping for. That may or may not be true given Trump's predilection for making shit up, but if it is, they've probably got 10 attack ads spooled up and ready to go against her.
 
Lodoss Warrior powiedział(a):
Damn, went for the jugular just when Sleepy Joe was taking a victory nap.

This is more evidence they were waiting and hoping for Biden to nominate Haris. She was the perfect weakness, and this was the perfect time.

The funny thing is it's not even a Trump campaign vid. That's from Som3thingwicked, another pro trump memelord. Kinda surprised he hasn't gotten the Carpe Donktum treatment and been banned from Twitter for being too effective; after this little stunt he probably will be.
 


Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin offered Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., some advice about running as a vice presidential nominee -- as the California Democrat becomes only the third woman ever to do so.

“Congrats to the democrat VP pick,” Palin said in a post to Harris Tuesday. “Climb upon Geraldine Ferraro’s and my shoulders, and from the most amazing view in your life consider lessons we learned.”

Palin, who ran on the ticket with former congressman John McCain during his presidential candidacy in 2008, shared some of the knowledge she gained from her experience – largely telling Harris to be wary.

“Out of the chute trust no one new,” Palin wrote in an Instagram post Tuesday evening.

“Fight mightily to keep your own team with you - they know you, know your voice, and most importantly are trustworthy,” she added in a post that in included six sections of advice.

Palin also addressed things she specifically learned from the trail, such as an “OTR - an orchestrated campaign stop” and “Ropeline” where she met with Americans to shake hands, hold people’s babies and all together meet the public.

“Every single handshake and holler and hug and smile melted my heart, energized my soul, and gave me the utmost hope in the greatest country on earth,” she wrote.

Palin also reminded Harris to never “forget the women who came before you,” including herself and former Rep. Geraldine Ferraro, D-N.Y. who was the first female to run on a presidential ticket for Vice President in 1984.

Ferraro ran with Walter Mondale who served as Vice President to Jimmy Carter. The Mondale-Ferraro ticket were defeated in a landslide election by President Ronald Reagan and his VP George H. W. Bush in November, 1984.

Ferraro was not only the first woman to run for the Vice Presidency, but also the first Italian American to do so.

Harris, who served as California’s Attorney General before entering the Senate in 2016, is running for VP as the third female candidate in U.S. history, and the first Black and South Asian-American candidate.

Palin also instructed Harris to “have fun!”

“This IS the greatest country in the world and hopefully you’ll be blessed beyond belief, like I was, with meeting new people from all walks of life and see just how great it is,” the former Alaskan governor said.

Palin, a Republican, and the VP candidate on the McCain-Palin ticket, participated in a debate shortly before the 2008 election against, then-VP candidate Joe Biden.

The 90-minute debate started with a friendly encounter as the two shook hands and she asked if she could call him Joe. According to Palin’s memoir, she didn’t realize her mic was hot.

Palin hinted she might share more advice or stories on her candidacy in future posts.

“More to come...including one of the funniest things in my life, right before my debate with Sen. Joe Biden... stay tuned,” Palin said concluding her post by alluding to the her first encounter with former VP Biden.

Biden announced Harris as his running mate earlier in the day.

“@JoeBiden can unify the American people because he's spent his life fighting for us. And as president, he'll build an America that lives up to our ideals. I'm honored to join him as our party's nominee for Vice President, and do what it takes to make him our Commander-in-Chief,” Harris said in a tweet Tuesday.

Former San Francisco mayor urges Kamala Harris to 'politely decline' VP slot, aim for AG instead

Former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown urged Sen. Kamala Harris to "politely decline" a spot on Joe Biden's ticket if the 2020 presumptive Democratic nominee chooses her as his running mate.
www.foxnews.com www.foxnews.com


Former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown has urged Sen. Kamala Harris to "politely decline" a spot on Joe Biden's ticket if the 2020 presumptive Democratic nominee chooses her as his running mate.

In an op-ed headlined "Brown: Kamala Harris should say no to vice presidency" published by the San Francisco Chronicle on Saturday, Brown, who has openly discussed his past extramarital relationship with Harris, urged her to reject the vice presidency and request instead to be considered for the role of attorney general in a Biden administration.

"Harris is a tested and proven campaigner who will work her backside off to get Biden elected," Brown, 86, wrote. "That said, the vice presidency is not the job she should go for — asking to be considered as attorney general in a Biden administration would be more like it."

Brown, who has acknowledged dating Harris early in her political career, continued, "Historically, the vice presidency has often ended up being a dead end. For every George H.W. Bush, who ascended from the job to the presidency, there’s an Al Gore, who never got there.

If Biden wins in November, "the Democrats will be moving into the White House in the middle of a pandemic and economic recession," Brown wrote. "The next few years promise to be a very bumpy ride. Barack Obama and the Democrats saved the nation from economic collapse when he took office, and their reward was a blowout loss in the 2010 midterm elections.

"On the other hand, the attorney general has legitimate power," he argued. "From atop the Justice Department, the boss can make a real mark on everything from police reform to racial justice to prosecuting corporate misdeeds. And the attorney general gets to name every U.S. attorney in the country. That’s power."

Harris has long been considered a frontrunner to join the Biden ticket, but her record as a prosecutor and her contentious debate exchanges with the former vice president during the primary can be seen as liabilities.

Speculation that Harris might be Biden’s choice increased last week however, after notes that Biden held in his hand during a news conference had Harris’ name scribbled across the top, as seen in a photo from the AP. The senator’s name was followed by five talking points: “Do not hold grudges.” “Campaigned with me & Jill.” “Talented.” “Great help to campaign.” “Great respect for her.”

Brown said that as attorney general, "just showing up and being halfway sane will make the new AG a hero," taking shots at "the department’s current disarray under William Barr."

"Best of all," he wrote, "being attorney general would give Harris enough distance from the White House to still be a viable candidate for the top slot in 2024 or 2028, no matter what the state of the nation."

Jason Nichols: Biden's take on African American voters and 'diversity' was not wrong

Joe Biden was largely correct in his statement about Latino/a/x communities
www.foxnews.com www.foxnews.com


As an African American, a senior lecturer in the African American Studies Department at a major university and a person who teaches a U.S. Latino/a/x Studies course, I can tell you that despite his clunky communication Thursday presumptive Democratic Party nominee Joe Biden was largely correct in his statement about Latino/a/x communities being more diverse than African Americans.

Biden came in for strong criticism because of remarks he made while being interviewed at the convention of the National Association of Black Journalists and National Association of Hispanic Journalists.

The former vice president was asked whether he would “re-engage” with Cuba if he were to become president.

He answered, “Yes, yes. And by the way, what you all know, but most people don’t know, unlike the African American community, with notable exceptions, the Latino community is an incredibly diverse community with incredibly different attitudes about different things.”

He continued, "You go to Florida, you find a very different attitude about immigration in certain places than you do when you're in Arizona, so it's a very diverse community.”

On Thursday evening he tried to give context to his comments in a series of tweets saying,

“Earlier today, I made some comments about diversity in the African American and Latino communities that I want to clarify. In no way did I mean to suggest the African American community is a monolith—not by identity, not on issues, not at all. Throughout my career, I've witnessed the diversity of thought, background, and sentiment within the African American community. It's this diversity that makes our workplaces, communities, and country a better place. My commitment to you is this: I will always listen, I will never stop fighting for the African American community and I will never stop fighting for a more equitable future.”

First, in looking at Biden’s remarks it is worthwhile to note that he said “African American” not “Black.”

Black is a broader umbrella term that includes people of Sub-Saharan African descent all over the globe.

Most people think of African Americans as the descendants of enslaved Africans in the United States as well as the descendants of Black immigrants who were themselves born in the country.

Former Rep. John Lewis, D-Ga. was African American, but so is Barack Obama, former Secretary of State Colin Powell and Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif.

Foreign-born Black immigrants tend to identify more directly with their country of origin and call themselves Haitian American or Nigerian American, for example.

People of Latin American origin are considered Latino the moment they arrive on U.S. soil.

While African Americans are not a cultural monolith, they do vote as a political one.

African Americans generally vote as a large special interest group across the nation, usually with Democrats. Just under 90% voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016 and 96% with Obama in 2008. More than 80% of African Americans have been voting to the left for several decades now.

One would be hard-pressed to find large regional pockets of African American Republicans. In fact, many African American Republicans often talk about feeling isolated from the rest of the community.

Latino/a/x voting patterns, however, depend upon region and country of origin.

Cuban Americans in South Florida are notoriously politically conservative and mostly align with Republicans, driven by their disdain for Fidel Castro’s brand of socialism.

Puerto Ricans in the Northeastern region of the U.S. are historically left-leaning.

President Donald Trump has been characterized as hostile to Latinos but still garnered 28% of their votes in 2016.

A staggering 50% of Cuban Americans cast their ballots for Trump. Many Cuban Americans see a distinction between themselves and their immigrant experiences and those coming by foot to the United States from Central America and Mexico. Trump received a paltry 8% of African American votes.

In addition, race is a big factor in American life. Latinos are incredibly racially diverse as nearly every race is represented amongst Latinos.

Some Latino/a/x have trouble clearly defining their race with the rigid racial categories we have here in the United States.

There has been a big movement to acknowledge the Black or Afro-Latinidad (another Black group that is mostly separate from African Americans) identity.

African Americans represent one single racial category regardless of phenotype or appearance. Though not all Blacks are African American, all African Americans are Black.

Lastly, immigration status is an issue that African Americans don’t typically encounter. Seven percent of non-citizens in the U.S. are non-Latino Black but they don’t identify as African Americans, thus do not add to the diversity of the “African American” community or experience.

Undocumented immigrants from Latin America largely identify as and with Latinos.

Also, the differences between Cuban immigration and say, Honduran immigration is often stark. While under 10% of Black adults are foreign-born, 47.5% of Latino adults were born in another country.

While diversity is usually a strength, there is also strength in unity and uniformity of purpose.

It is not an insult to say that African Americans are culturally diverse and inclusive but also form a singular, politically unified community.

Bernard Goldberg explains why he hopes 'detestable' Trump wins reelection ‘in a landslide’

Author and journalist Bernard Goldberg is no fan of President Trump, but hopes the Republican wins reelection “in a landslide," he wrote on his personal website Monday.
www.foxnews.com www.foxnews.com


Author and journalist Bernard Goldberg is no fan of President Trump, but hopes the Republican wins reelection “in a landslide," he wrote on his personal website Monday.

“There’s nothing about this man’s character that I like," Goldberg acknowledged before writing, "What I mean is that I hope the Republican candidate beats the Democratic candidate. And I wish the Republican candidate were almost anybody else ... I hope Joe Biden loses more than I’m actively rooting for Donald Trump to win.”

Explaining his dissatisfaction with the Democrats, Goldberg said he doesn’t believe “puppet” Joe Biden even knows what he stands for as the party's presumptive Democratic nominee and claimed that if the former vice president does defeat Trump in November, Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., will be “running the show” instead.

“We’ve been witnessing chaos and destruction in Portland and other cities run by progressive Democrats, yet no one in the Democratic Party will stand up and condemn the violence as if they really mean it,” Golberg wrote. “They’re cowards who fear a backlash from the hard left wing of the party. Stand up against rioters and the progressives will find a primary opponent to run against you.”

Elsewhere, the longtime CBS News reporter and former Fox News contributor wrote that “Democrats don’t share my values and they sure don’t care about people like me. People like me don’t want our tax dollars to pay for free comprehensive healthcare for immigrants who snuck into the country and are living here illegally."

Goldberg also claimed that free speech will be in “serious jeopardy" if the Democrats win this fall.

“So-called hate speech could become a crime. And they’ll decide what’s hateful and what isn’t,” he said. “If Biden and his progressive puppet masters take over, the cancel culture will be in full bloom. You think it’s bad now? Just wait!”

Despite his preference for a Biden defeat, Goldberg concluded, he can't bring himself to vote for the president.

"I know the argument, which I’ve heard a million times: If I don’t vote for Trump it’s the same as voting for Biden," he wrote. "That may be true, but that’s Donald Trump’s doing, not mine.

“And if Joe Biden wins, it won’t be because of me or a few million people like me. It will be because of Donald Trump,” he said. “He is a detestable man. And I hope he wins.”

Pretty based and I can respect his choice. Don't force yourself to vote for Trump but don't be fucking blind when it's obvious that the Dems are shits this election. Same thing goes for the inverse.
