    The polling so far gives me doubt.

    I want someone who isn’t Trump to win this fucking election, I don’t personally care who it is as long as they can deliver. My concern is that Harris can’t and, if so, she should step back as well.

    This isn’t a time for “Well I gave it my all”. Have a plan to win or GTFO.

      I think she’ll get a huge bump when/if she’s the named candidate.

      Progressives are pretty experienced at holding our noses, especially if there’s plausible deniability about the candidate.

      I’m a lot more confident in her chances than Joe’s, and I think she’s the only other option the DNC will give us.

        The youth don’t traditionally vote for “Not Trump” - we need to actually excite the voters.

          What happened in 2020?

          Harris will be enough, just like Joe was last time.

          Because it’s easier to ignore potential disappointment than ignore an ongoing disappointment
