      Why do you think Liberals made fun of Trump parading Tusli Gabbard around? I believe Liberals were right to make fun of that.

        We make fun of Trump and anyone who supports him for being a terrible person and a genuine idiot. Vance used to denigrate him too, now he’s the running mate (and notorious couch fucker) so we rip on him as well.

        We like Kamela since she’s not a terrible person or a generally raving lunatic/narcissist.

        Do you see the difference in these two situations?

          Ignoring that, there’s basically one democrat that decided to turn into a jackass, while Trump is so toxic there’s a long list of party liners (for decades in many cases) openly endorsed a minority female democrat candidate.

            I’d buy into that point if I saw even a fraction as much effort put into pushing out Xi, Putin, or even Netanyahu as I ever do people arguing against the nominee for the US democratic party. Hardly a word against the ones actually doing the killing and war crimes, but lots of blame for a US presidential candidate…

              Xi, Putin, and Netanyahu aren’t US politicians. They don’t represent me. Harris does.

              I will happily call Putin and Netanyahu war criminals, but I don’t know how I can affect them over here in the US. (I don’t know enough about Xi to say that about him.)

        Tulsi Gabbard was ridiculed for being a Russian plant long before she was running for Trump. The ridicule is because she never was serious about any Dem policy and it was obvious.
