    I haven't seen a party flip this hard since all the racists joined the Republican Party after Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act and Nixon implemented the Southern Strategy.

    I don't know. Leslie might've done some good. At the least, it would've been fun and you wouldn't have seen Austin turn into the corporate hell hole it's become...or it would've been delayed to some extent.

    The thought of these 3 being in charge of making decisions for our country is the stuff nightmares are made of for women, children, the LGBQT community, pets, and anyone with brown skin.

    Yeah, I don't see him as being qualified to be running for president, let alone governor. It made a lot of sense that the number of his supporters dwindled after Harris entered the race. I think a lot of them were just people who were looking to vote for someone besides Biden or Trump.

    But I'm just talking from the standpoint of optics, and in that sense, the Trump campaign played this well. Holding a big rally to make the announcement (the fireworks were a nice touch LOL), and the fact that this endorsement is from a Kennedy, regardless of his actual qualifications, I think that took some of the sheen off the DNC for a day.

    Same thing kind of happened with Biden stepping down soon after the RNC, but I'm not sure how intentional that was, compared to the Kennedy endorsement.

    Kennedy initially enjoyed 15% support in July, riding solely on his family name. Before Biden dropped out, this had plummeted to 6%, then further to 5% after he dropped out, and has been slowly dwindling to 4% since. The Kennedy name magic has clearly faded, and I doubt it'll make much difference anymore. His reputation took another hit when reports surfaced about him seeking favors from both candidates in exchange for his endorsement. I'm glad he's out of the race and can't play spoiler anymore. It's also good he's not affiliated with Harris's team in any capacity. In the end, it seems fitting that one weird guy is endorsing another weird guy.

    Yeah I don’t think it’s costing the DNC dearly.

    That means slaves. Republicans are trying to reverse gay marriage and make slavery legal again. Reversing women being able to vote would probably take until Vance’s term.

    Actually, all it does is prove RFK running in the Democratic primary was a joke
