Propose all the deals you want. If you refuse to use leverage, they’re just suggestions.

What would have been the purpose of committing to do that in a political campaign? She was determined to end it. As POTUS she'd have had many options to do so & it would be an error to give her opponent ammunition to use to call her weak or pro-Hamas or any of the things the current fuck wads do.

You have probably noticed by now that a lot of people don't give a fuck about anyone darker than beige. To expect her, as sitting VP, and in a campaign, to essentially promise to overturn 80yrs of US FP, as crap as it's been on that issue. Did you feel the Orange ass was legitimately pro-Pal?

Of course not, but it’s again the assumption of the false dichotomy that kills us. Better things aren’t possible, but vote for us anyways you say, while pointing at the cudgel if we don’t. I’m tired.

Well how did it work out for you? Seems results speak for themselves. Do you seriously believe a Democratic President would have been as bad as Felon47? Most of us would prefer not to have only a binary choice, but we work with what we've got at a given moment.

Honestly it's been really obvious you didn't want to accept what she was putting out for you & those concerned about that situation. Listen to her speech again in hindsight with an open mind & see if you can't admit you stubbornly dismissed her.

Ive tried over and over. Self-crit is a pretty big part of being a principled organizer. All we ever heard was an uninspiring pledge to do more of the same. We petitioned her to meet with protestors over and over and she refused. She owns her loss, not us.

Did she now? Guess someone got it wrong then.

What would have been the purpose of … winning the block of voters she needed to win the election? Look, it’s a nice day. I’m going for a run. Life is too short for this.
