    I remain optimistic about Harris’s chances, completely honestly. But even if my optimism is well-placed, it is vital that we remember this bullshit, not only in the lead-up to the election, but in the days after it. Fascist cunts will try to pretend none of this ever happened. We have to remember it, and cite it, and push it forward every time one of them tries to convince some burned-out swing voter that both sides are ‘just as bad’ or ‘the mainstream media is in the pockets of the DEMS!’

      I hope you’re right. I have hope too, but it’s really only denial that there is a reality where Trump is a serious candidate. This is 2016 all over again, but with proof, plus he’s gone even darker

      I’m not optimistic, but only because I see how well trumps vile behavior is playing in the south.

      He’s playing them like a virtuoso pianist, and their advantage in the EC might make it enough.
