She’s done an OUTSTANDING job and she’s run an outstandingly KICK-ASS campaign!

It actually is exciting to imagine her in action, seated at the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office.

not the sort you get from a habitual liar, and/or someone who can't keep their stories straight.

I voted yesterday, and I did so feeling as good about doing so as ever I have.

Though, as a demographically average voter, I think she could have earned a round of cheers by asking the media why the fuck they don't ask Trump about his racial and class-oriented meanness before putting her on the spot to backstop Joe's very honest and succinct comment. She didn't go to the fact that the freaks Biden referred were the monied and professional politically motivated Trumpers who plan to reap massive capital career gain on Trumps filthy coattails. She should better have enjoined Biden by condemning the low motivations of those who endeavor to take profit from America's dissolution.

This interview was a misstep. The media is ginning for a Comey moment, and she looked too tired to catch the lift from appropriate voter reactional chemistry. Who here doesn't 100% agree that Trumps mainline supporters are the "garbage" we need most to encapsulate with extreme prejudice? That's what Joe was saying, and we ALL know it!

It's way past the "observe the process-praise Garlandianism" moment. If you got a line to the campaign, tell them to shape the fuck up and quick. Pleading for some friends, my grandchildren. Trust Biden's instincts. Do not widen a non-existent/yet perceived divide between she and Joe.

CNN especially is culpable for this horseshit because many progressive people still ingest their crap like it still means anything.

However, for I would love for her to have said what she said at first, but followed by something like, "Get back to me after you've challenged Trump on the countless racist, misogynistic, anti-democracy comments he's made & continues to make."

Then ended it decisively, as she did.

Maybe the Trump part first, then her pledge to continue working for all Americans. Then the," Thank you" and walk away.

Admittedly, she handles things better than I ever could, so I accept that my idea might be wrong.

Go Harris - Walz!
