I keep hearing Republicans saying Democrats are only getting behind Harris because she's not white, Diversity Ethnicity Inclusion thing

Conveniently ignoring the fact she's already Vice President of the United States and second in line to the presidency for almost 4 years now.
And prepping people to marry the word woke to her for however long she's relevent.

Kamala was chosen because South Carolina's Democratic Party leadership demanded a woman of color be choosen in return for them backing Biden back in 2020. So by default she was the DEI choice. That's literally how it went down as described by Democrats themselves four years ago. We can start digging up old clips if you want.

I honestly think they could of compromised and just looked for a better black candidate who wasn't evil, who had charisma and a vision. Who didn't smoke pole as her sole means for climbing the political ladder back them in San Francisco. Someone people could look up to and respect and not be accuse of slave labor practices by prisoners forced to unfairly labor for her. That sort of person.

@Dignaga The Right would make up those lies about anyone Biden picked.

Conservatives say this about any woman in a position of power. Biden could have picked AOC or Omar, it would have been the same thing.

@BohemianBabe Omar and AOC didn't screw their way into higher office. Kamala did with Mayor Willie Brown.

Honestly, worst sexual thing AOC did was use porn terms in a feminist setting. Worst Omar did was marriage fraud (which is bad but she likely knows not to run for president).

Neither did Kamala. But if Biden chose Omar or AOC, the Right would find a sexual relationship they had with a man at some point, and they'd say that's how they got their power.

See? Y'all already have something ready for them in case they ever run for president. So much of Fascism is just sexual insecurity.

A president steps down. He endorses his vice president. The party gets behind her.
I'm not sure why that situation would be so unbelievable. Whatever color she is.
