    is why we can’t give in to defeatism

    No, we can’t engage in self delusion.

    and it’s dangerous to frame discussion with the notion that Harris is “on track to […] lose.”

    No, its dangerous to stand in denial of the evidence. Hopes not going to get you there. The evidence we have right now suggest we might not even have to worry about SC fuckery.

    The ONLY thing that can be done is to stop with this trite, delusional thinking, and to stop advocating for this candidate blindly. That kind of toxic blindness is why the candidate is suffering. Accepting less from your candidate means they don’t do as well on election day. We need to demand better from her because if she doesn’t do better, she wont win.

      Self delusion…? Supporting candidates blindly?

      Trump has no platform to support. It’s all hate and hypocrisy.

      The amount of mental gymnastics you go through must be tiring. Either that or you’re a disingenuous piece of shit.
