    Unless she was on Epstein island raping 12-13 year olds like Trump was, I don’t care.

    Trump is a convicted felon and pedo and shouldn’t even be a nominee. America is beyond absurd.

          That’s probably the actual kompromat Russia has on Trump: while he was being pissed on by underage hookers he was also laughing.

            I honestly feel sorry for Trump. I mean don’t get me wrong he deserves all the bad things he gets and more, but he must be fundamentally very unhappy and lonely. I can’t imagine seeing everything, even his “friends” and family, transactionally. He bought his wives (maybe only metaphorically?) and he pays to cheat on them, his business ventures are all frauds and grifts that are waiting to catch up to him.

            There are some wealthy people I feel a little twinge of jealousy for from time to time (especially being 4 months unemployed), but Trump isn’t one. I will always consider Trump to be worse off in life than I am. He’s like Gollum, a spiteful creature who can’t help but destroy himself in pursuit of a treasure that drives all happiness from his life.

            I am dreading seeing some of the bullshit they’re gonna cook up to attack her.

            It’s gonna be a horrible mix of racist, sexist and God knows what else.

                Yeah but these are all weaksauce and they know it.

                Frankly impressed they haven’t come up with anything real. Honestly, we leftists have done a better job maligning her so far (pro cop, carcéral system, etc), but that’s not going to keep anyone away from the polls that wasn’t going to pass on Biden anyway.

              “She’s a DEI harlot” is essentially what they seem to have settled on so nothing that doesn’t simply point out their blatant racism and misogyny

                I dont like Harris, but as a candidate thats going to draw the nastiest comments out, we couldnt do better than her. Just imagine how many minority votes they’re going to lose by openly being racist fucks. Also not only will she appeal to women way more then Hillary ever did, she gets to champion making roe a law

          I’m so out of the loop on the coconut thing. What’s even implied by that? squints eyes Is that a fucking brown on the outside white on the inside thing??? That’s fucking gross if that’s what it is.

            This is a stupid link to it but here you go: https://youtu.be/ZiRSLYV1X4A?si=kwAusX_Q-6cZig6d

            I, too, have been atomically dissecting that meme to find the racism, and you know I won’t rule out that when the GOP makes a joke about that actually is what they mean, but it appears to be a thing fans of Harris also meme about.

            She was telling a folksy story of growing up and she recounted how her mother had asked if the kids had just fallen out of a coconut tree. It’s a cute alternative to “were you born yesterday” or something like that.

            I dunno, it has big “what doesn’t everyone say ‘porch monkeys?’” energy.

              That’s an adorable anecdote. They are attacking her with that?

              Imagine being the guy maintaining all of those ChatGPT/Twitter bots, waiting on instructions and desperately trying to get some kind of attack going.

                It’s adorable and the whole quote is about society as well. Heaven forbid we have a president who understands some philosophy.

              I was apparently born in a barn, according to my mother. Now that I’m old I can be heard yelling “Close the door!”

            I looked it up this morning and I still don’t get it. She said something kind of weird about coconuts in a speech once and… that’s it?

            This short video explains the coconut reference.

            Basically, it comes from a speech she gave in May 2023 at a White House event about Hispanic excellence. In her speech, she also touched on how the democratic party can better support young leaders by understanding the context they grew up in.

            This led into her personal anecdote from her mother, saying:

            “My mother, she would give us a hard time sometimes, and she would say to us ‘I don’t know what’s wrong with you young people. You think you just fell out of a coconut tree?! (Laughs) You in exist in the context of all in which you live and what came before you.’”

            This basically took off and got mixed up with the whole “pill meme” terminology. Those that wanted Biden to pass the torch to Kamala started saying they were “coconut-pilled” and the rest is history.

        He walked in on naked teen models in their dressing rooms. He grabs women by the pussy. He visited pedo island multiple times with underage girls on the flights, where he is credibly accused of molesting the girls including slapping them around and playfully arguing with Epstein over who deserved the virginity of the girl they just gang banged - all of this in court documents from long before he was a political figure. He commented on his own daughter’s developing body and said he’d date her. He is guilty of rape. He has been accused of some manner of sexual harassment or assault by a dozen different women - some of it taking place in public. He assaulted his ex wife both sexually and violently.

        Is any of this new information to you? There is a very consistent pattern of behavior here that goes all the way back to the 80’s. He has shown us who he is all along.
