When you say you are going to pick the very best candidate for a position, and it ends up being a women that you share her qualifications with and she is head and shoulders above other candidates, more power to her. When the hiring entity says they are going to hire a woman, then 1/2 of the candidate pool is instantly eliminated. So what are we supposed to think? If the hiring entity comes out and says that they are going to hire the best man for the job, I would immediately say that is discrimination, eliminating half of the candidate pool and quite possibly eliminating the best possible person for the job. So yes, I am totally convinced that she was a DEI selection, and not the best possible person for the job. Yes, she has had some good positions, but not an impressive list of accomplishments, IMHO.
In what scenario does any of this you said pertain to Harris? The selection process for VP never is stated as picking the best candidate. It's selecting the person who gives the ticket the best chance to win, by catering to a certain electorate or winning a certain state and balancing out the ticket etc. That is exactly why trump selected pence, to cater to the evangelicals. It's why Obama picked Biden, to appeal to white voters. "Best qualified" is not part of the occasion. Harris certainly was qualified and she brought other benefits which paid off.
Harris was not a DEI "hire" for her senate seat either because she was elected. Jackson has nothing to do with Harris and is a whole different discussion. I agree, Biden should have just nominated her without stating that he was going to pick a black woman. Just do it.
The danger of throwing out DEI is that it automatically puts the USER of that term in the position of seeming to think that a minority could never just be an imminently qualified person and that it MUST ONLY be because they are a minority and couldn't POSSIBLY get picked for any other reason. Because Republicans who use that term only use it to denegrate minorities. It's dog-whistle shit. I don't believe you hold that belief, so I would ask again if you still think harris qualifies as a "DEI" hire for VP?

The Arizona rally today. Kamala had a rally in the same spot, un(fortunately) she needed to black out the upper deck.
Hannah Montana outdrew Trump maybe we should let her be president because of crowd size

So Hannah Montana should run for President?
What about TV ratings . Does that matter ? RNC vs DNC?
So when Taylor Swift endorses Harris will that matter? She draws more of a crowd going out to eat than Trump ever has at a rally.
Trumps hiding behind bulletproof glass now. And he’s a fat POS who’s never fired a gun in his life, and pussed out of the military with fake bone spurs. He’d throw his whole family in front of himself to avoid a bullet. You are F’ing delusional.
I know.... both men reek unselfish and defenders of freedom...if I was in a stuck in a fox hole with Harris and Michelle Obama they would show bravery those two cowards never would.
Harris letting both of them take a bullet so she can be president demonstrates great wisdom and makes it clear she deserves the presidency. Taihtsat
He’ll be secretary of health & human services. First act will be dissolution of the CDC, followed by decertification of anyone who’s actually been to medical school. Replace vaccination schedules with guidelines on how much a patient should be bled for various ailments. We need to make sure that, just like our laws, our medical treatments reflect what the founders would have done.
She endorsed “anyone but Trump” long ago.
There’s a new group “Swifties for Trump”. Have you seen it? I noticed it when the TDS crowd came after Patrick Mahomes wife for liking a tweet.
Crazy that someone who’s gonna get taxed substantially more under D policies is still supporting the D candidate over Trump. Wonder why?
Nice straw man from creepy Larry. Notice how Leisure Suit Larry didn’t name anyone that was allegedly calling Elon an idiot? That’s because 9 years ago no one was calling Elon an idiot. Although back then in Silicon Valley many people knew that Elon was wacko.
Today however anyone paying attention knows without a doubt that Elon is a nutter and a certifiable idiot for, among other things, what he’s done to Tesla and Twitter.
It’s bizarre and fascinating how right wingers want to shake up US government while simultaneously worshipping at the feet of the billionaire class who are the ones largely responsible for effing up our government in the first place.
What is the point ? Was she set to speak there?
And is the point if Kamala does pull off the upset that dems cheated cause of crowd size?

So you want Trump to start WWIII to juice our economy like WWII did. Neat.
1) Trump is too much of a pussy to do that
2) The only thing Trump will do, yet again, to try and boost the economy is more tax cuts for his fellow billionaires.
That’s no article. It’s RFK Jr the kook fellating Trump for a role in his administration. He reached out to the Harris campaign too with hopes of a Harris cabinet position in exchange for his endorsement. They told him to pound sand.
Actually Kennedy is wrong....the time period MAGA is talking about is the 50's. Booming economy, middle class growing. Out of WW2 (or the first world war to Trump's knowledge), limited war in Korea...then the meat and potato's of the grievances...you can figure it out. BTW....tax rate on the wealthiest 49% and they were doing just fine, and not pissing and moaning about "their money".

So not only did you fail science and math you failed history too. MAGAs: our best and brightest burned out 3 watt lightbulbs.
Well what happens when Trump either leaves office or dies? He is the only person that can make america great again, and inflation lowest of the largest economies right now, high stock market, low unemployment, violent crime going down. I guess I am wondering what he will do when things don't go his way, like the last pandemic. He knew what was coming to America, and for his own self interests, it was one or two cases, and then he will reopen the economy on the day Jesus rose. He would have won 2020 if he didn't lie about the most important thing to happen to our country in years.
No... government men and women telling you and I he is a danger to our democracy
The stupid thing about MAGA is it’s just a recycled message from every presidential challenger to an incumbent (in this case party). “America has been shitty the last four or eight years with (insert name/party) in office. We’re gonna make it better!”
