I guess I'm a weird case because I do think there's a strong case to make that Harris is the better car. But people who say their only concern is beating Donald Trump haven't made that case and have instead made arguments that would be *fatal.*

clearly evident that a part of the democratic class thinks that this is just business as usual Donors, on the other hand, want a new centrist white man vehicle after Biden no longer can serve that role to the public (which is why they're backstabbing Kamala)

There's no longer any ceiling to how wackadoodle Republican lawsuits can go. As @elliemargolis.bsky.social has flagged, the sovereign state of Missouri, being unable to invade or embargo New York, has instead sued it before SCOTUS to try to aid Trump, because ... reasons.

Under Trump v. United States Biden has more constitutional authority to order the DoJ to maliciously prosecute corporations that use noncompetes than to bar noncompetes through notice and comment administrative rulemaking.

there’s a sort of absolutist logic to the idea that if he’s unfit to campaign now, he’s unfit to serve now, and that means now, right now, that i can (sort of) begrudgingly respect, but if the purpose of that is fidelity and duty to the country, you simply cannot handwave away the chaos that follows

At this point just let me know who is running for president: if it’s Biden, I’ll vote for him, if it’s Kamala, then I’m coconut-pilled. Hell, a cabbage outlasted Liz Truss. I’ll vote for the cabbage. But please, I can’t handle people who discovered politics yesterday arguing over this any longer
