    Please, any unironic Kamala supporters, could you tell me how this is a win and not a condemnation of her ‘platform?’

        Project 2025 was created by the Heritage Foundation. The Heritage Foundation was a policy adviser for the Ronald Reagan presidency. In 1981, the Heritage Foundation published a listed of over 2000 policy recommendations for the Reagan Administration. By the Heritage Foundation own admission, Ronald Reagan was able to implement over 60% of the Heritage Foundation policy recommendations during his presidency. Ronald Reagan and Project 2025 are cut from the same cloth.

        “Scotus overturning wade and enshrining presidential immunity happened while the dems were in power and had ways to stop it but didn’t. The dems have proven that they either dont care about project 2025 or are purposefully helping it along.” ~ Commiejones

        Oh also, biden should’ve packed the court in the first two years. Democrats don’t give a shit about Project 2025 and they’re going to do absolutely nothing to stop it as they have always done absolutely nothing in the face of the “evil republicans!!!”. They sat there and let Obamacare get ruined lmfao.

        Even now Biden has essentially unchecked power. If Trump and project 2025 is so SCAWWWY then why not fucking outlaw it?

        Oh wait, because Democrats want it too. Might wanna take a look at all the donors for it…

        Centrist Democrats are useless. Right now your party is busy attacking PSL and Greens and still not doing a damn thing other than begging for money as your party always does. Womp womp.

          Remember when the SCotUS was considering the president shouldn’t be convicted of crimes while in office? Biden could have walked up to any GOP fuck and shot them in the face with zero consequences. Yet this power is only being used to not convict Trump of all the crimes democrats are in a frenzy over.

            I really don’t believe SCOTUS would have let Biden get away with that. They wrote that decision is such a weasely way that it gave Trump practical immunity, but allows them to decide when it applies to other presidents.

            Still I agree that if Democrats actually cared about things they’d consistently force SCOTUS to overturn popular policies, if only to show the public they’re simply unelected political actors.

        Do you to think Ronald Reagan or his supporters actually oppose the policies within Project 2025?

        I’m not saying you should vote for Trump, but the worst people supporting Kamala Harris isn’t the win they seem to think it is.

          Remember that dems are centrist worshipers as well and so love getting endorsements “across the ideological aisle” even if those ideologies destroyed working class American lives.

            Lol I never forgot. Those ideologies also destroyed queer lives, lives in the middle east, and lives in the global south. The memory of the US is about 3 seasons of television long.
