Some people will be miserable no matter who is running
I wonder if all those rampant anti Biden astroturfers are going to create new accounts to dump on Harris, or if they'll just continue on.
Almost as if the US democrats where assholes through and through (still better that the Republicans, before you accuse me of supporting Trump).
Lol nah, just Russian bots acting like Americans. "Biden is too old, we need anybody else in order to beat Trump!", "Kamala is too black/isn't manly enough/isn't black enough/is too womanly to beat Trump!"
Or maybe they'll push the angle that " was pushed down our throats by the political elite so vote third party/Trump to teach them a lesson!"
I mean, there are valid reasons to be anti-Harris, she's still a right-winger. Leftists aren't going to be happy voting for any right-winger by default.
Harris could take a firm anti-genocide stance, or promise something big and popular like Medicare for All, which would see increased voter turnout from the Left. However, given her track record, I doubt she would pivot in this direction, instead focusing on being a younger and healthier Joe Biden, essentially. That should make liberals more likely to turn out, so still a net-gain for the Dems.
It's really too early to tell.
Now that "Genocide Joe" is out, the Lemmy-Leftists LARPing as communists have gone mask-off and are just proudly pushing accelerationism.
It was always a front.
