Candidate. We are here, right now, talking about a situation born directly from your inability to discern that fact. I'm guessing you likely found a reason to NOT vote for Kamala, because your Purity was offended by some piddly thing you heard from "Fair-And-Balanced News". Keep your eye on the ball and look for the best chance instead of the un-attainable Ideal. This is how we got here.
Pay attention. This man is trying to Lead. If we continue to be infatuated with the shiny shit in the gutter we'll NEVER crawl out of it.
Then again, I could be wrong. Perhaps you're the Candidate we need, and you can put yourself out there and do and say all the Perfect things we need to Save Us All.
In the meantime, it might be a good idea to find community and promote UNITY in our Party so we can prevail.
They WANT us to squabble over the shit they dribble out. Don't take the bait.
Don't take the bait.
