Kamala on Cobert. What could have been...

This is moving.

Kamala Harris feels the pain we feel. Not just from her loss, but from the trauma and abuse our country is living through.

I cannot even understand in the slightest how people could choose the Orange Conning Psycho Rapist over this intelligent, qualified and compassionate woman. It still makes no sense to me.

It has to be something (or some things) illogical and based on emotions like that because it is not rational behavior. It makes no sense because it is nonsensical.

I appreciate her candidness. We don’t need ppl sugar coating things right now, we need Americans to realize what a dire, horrible situation we are in. Not to make them feel hopeless, but to make them feel like a fight is needed. Because it is. Now. Not tomorrow. Now.

History repeats itself: Democrats build and rebuild and Republicans destroy. Some things never change.

That's why I couldn't believe so many thought Trump would be better than Harris!

That's why I wear this "Don't blame me, I voted for her" shirt every day 👇

Snails do not have IQs in the way that humans do, as IQ (Intelligence Quotient) is a measure designed specifically for human cognitive abilities. Snails are simple creatures with a different type of nervous system and brain structure compared to mammals.

They exhibit behaviors that suggest a level of learning and memory, such as navigating their environment and responding to stimuli, but these behaviors are not directly comparable to human intelligence. Researchers often study animal behavior and cognition in different ways, focusing on aspects like problem-solving, learning capacity, and adaptation rather than using IQ as a standard measure.

I am heartsick thinking what could have been, should have been, and might have been. She is the embodiment of the values, ethics and democratic principles this country once stood for. Dear God, how this country has fallen.

I thought the same. What if?
And after seeing the NewsMax clips on the Daily show Daisy aired, of Megan Kelly (white Jesus beeeeeeatch) et all masterbating to the blue jean commercial while ranting about libs hating blonde blue eyed women with boobs, I needed to see Kamala’s (Madam President) smile and intelligence.
It is mind numbing to try and think of all the hell that would not be here now.
The National brain rot is emitting toxic fumes. Why I still wear a mask. 😷

of INDIFFERENCE. She is right, in that the system is broken and the only ones who can fix it is not some savior party leader, but those who've allowed, if not enabled it: the PEOPLE.

It's up to we, the people.

We must never stop fighting for what is right and just.

MVP Harris is going to be a powerful voice.

When Biden stepped down, at first I thought all was lost. But then Kamala Harris came right out of the gate, with so much enthusiasm and heart that I thought we had a good chance with her. I was excited by her campaign and looked forward to voting for her. I was so disheartened, disappointed and disgusted when DJT won the election. I couldn't believe it.

I realize we live in a racist, sexist country but I thought enough people saw DJT for who and what he really was (and is to this day). Especially after his first four years! Who the hell thought he would be any better this time? Who?

I really and truly believe something went down. For him to win EVERY swing state? After he stood at podiums and babbled gibberish as people were leaving his rallies in droves while Kamala Harris was filling every seat with overflows at every campaign rally she held? When I heard him say "We have the votes" and then he did that jerky, arm-bending movement he calls "dancing" for the rest of the rally, I knew something was up.
