my incredibly dumb ridiculous political takes
I really dislike trump, he only does anything for his own glorification and greed, and makes rash, sweeping decisions that can impact a lot based on petty short-term personal grievances
however I have known too many people like kamala, and her behavior as a candidate was truly terrifying, not in terms of policies I wouldn't want to see carried out or anything like that, but just as a person with nothing behind the eyes, nothing genuine about her ever, roundabout avoidance for every question and empty cackling
she wasn't a real person, she was a shell who would be completely controlled by those around her, signing anything she was told to sign and saying whatever she was told to say
I would've rather had hillary as president than trump, from what little I saw of walz I would've rather had him as president, and I would've also rather had vance as president after his debate and podcast appearance
but in this specific match up I think I'm a little relieved to get the devil we know
I feel like the surrounding attitude is different from in 2016, that was a reaction to obama and kind of an embarrassing lashing out, this time around this feels more like "please help us, do something different, anything," which I don't think is a bad instinct from the general public, people are sick of a lot of shit that's been going on and there needs to be a realignment, the democratic party needed a moment they could go "ok, message received" and try to promote ideals more in line with what the average person cares about
no idea whether they will actually do that, or just double down yet again and call everyone racists and fascists...
