She’s a radical far left progressive from California with avg intelligence. Ucla found of 109 senators she is the second most liberal.The more lunacy that comes out of her mouth, the more nervous the press becomes about losing in November

Some of crazy ish she said in 2019 during the primary is starting to come out. Wingnut leftist. Peak.The more lunacy that comes out of her mouth, the more nervous the press becomes about losing in November
Just stop. The reason Kamala would be president is the people who vote for her. Period! There are a myriad of reasons people could vote for her. Such as her mixed race, her gender, her liberalism, her manner of speaking, her $25k home ownership promise, student debt and medical debt cancellations, pro-Palestinian policy, and much more. Disliking Trump is down the list.Response to snarlcakes on the original post:
I don't disagree that Harris is pretty far left. But the conditions that will get her to the White House are a direct result of extremism from the far right and the inability of conservatives to maintain control of their party.
Why the hell didn't they keep Paul Ryan? He was a pure conservative and would have been able to beat Harris.
Trump is the problem. Get rid of Trump and MAGA and you'll have a chance to get your economic preferences back in charge.

Disagree. I don’t think she could organize a one-car funeral. Driving for Meals on Wheels is probably her highest and best use.She’s not bright enough for the job. Neither is Chadon state. Sad. Hopefully divided gov and little gets done. Pretty amazing to think think at one time the Dems had Clinton and Obama. Harris is fit to run a mid sized nonprofit
They’re becoming the real threatThe press will help guide her PR
I could name ten nonprofits off the top of my head she’d be perfect for at the local levelDisagree. I don’t think she could organize a one-car funeral. Driving for Meals on Wheels is probably her highest and best use.
Wow. WaPo from the rafters. Is there still enough sense among the electorate that they can’t be swayed by promises of free money?
They are a threat now.They’re becoming the real threat
I don’t know why price controls ever get political traction. Economists are, I believe, unanimously opposed, yet that seems to be a go-to position. Prices rise because of supply shortages. Price ceilings have proven to cause more shortages.Another great example of a policy from one administration going on to cause problems for succeeding presidencies is the Nixon Wage & Price controls I mentioned the other day (along with its Nixon-era doppelganger, the exit from Bretton-Woods).
There is absolutely no question that Nixon's ill-conceived price control policies caused all kinds of headaches for Presidents Ford and Carter -- especially as regards oil/gas. In fact, I'd go so far as to say they played a key role in both of those presidents losing their bids for another term.
Let’s recall the Johnson administration guns and butter budget followed by Nixon’s price controls.
She plans on fixing prices to bring down costs. That is f#cking stupid. The opposite happens. She’s beyond dumb.
Another. Bezos is not having any of this price controls malarkey.
And when you’ve lost renowned economist Bruce Pearl, you know it’s a bad idea.
Because they’re irresistible to ambitious and reckless politicians. The pitch sounds good to a lot of people when they’re struggling with inflation or supply shocks or whatever else might be squeezing their budgets.I don’t know why price controls ever get political traction.

I’ve long said that the only true tax cut is a spending cut.
I don’t know if this has been posted yet but here goes.Well, as political messaging, populism works. It always has.
A lot of people will see any opposition to this as greedy people trying to keep lower income people out of home ownership so they can afford a bigger house and a faster boat.
Americans aren’t unique. Politicians have been successfully peddling this nonsense for a long time.
Knowing Trump, I wouldn’t be surprised if he tried to outbid her.
I disagree because I count myself as voting for her as my only option to make sure Trump does not get back to Washington.Just stop.

Pearl is a proud Jew and very pro Israel. He wants nothing to do with Harris or the far left.
here's kamala.....IF she ever takes any questionsShe’s a radical far left progressive from California with avg intelligence. Ucla found of 109 senators she is the second most liberal.

Nope---I am saying he either,So you're saying ChicagoFarvaGoo is this generation's Ben Franklin?
I'll buy it.
Just insane, tbh....I get it with Trump. But some would rather see our country burn to ashes, than vote for him. From "causing Civil War Like condition" comments, to price controls, to this....Again, what a populist statement and approach, which she knows (as a lawyer) has no legal standing

It's not even populism - it's vote buying.
And guess which Party wants to do away with the Electoral College and elect a President based on the popular vote?This is along the lines of people saying we should institute term limits on Supreme Court justices (among other things) because they don't like the current composition of the court.
There aren't 38 state legislatures that are going to repeal the 17th amendment.
FTR, I would agree with your condemnation of democracy, if you're talking about a direct democracy. There's little question that such a nation would destroy itself. But we don't have a direct democracy. We have a republic, which is a form of indirect democracy. And it was created with very sensible limits.
What we need to do is seek to have those limits reimposed.
Paul Ryan didn't do anything in his 4 years as Speaker to indicate he'd be in any running for the Presidency. He faded so badly, he dropped out of politics altogether.Response to snarlcakes on the original post:

So there isn't property tax being paid on property until a first time buyer gets $25k to buy it?
She doesn’t have the foggiest idea how real estate works and every real estate deal trump handles is like 3 card monte 🤣🤣🤣So there isn't property tax being paid on property until a first time buyer gets $25k to buy it?
Can't wait to see these 2 debate.
