On this occasion, Kamala Harris used her own Web Domain compared to Barack Obama who for now uses the nickname under the .bsky.social umbrella

    Everyone please stop giving that woman news coverage. She is another neoliberal failure who should stay in the dustbin of history.

      If I thought this were notable, I would’ve been the one to make a post about it

        Primaries for dems have always been a vague formality. They’ve already decided who’s going to take the next ones.

            Exactly, that’s why she “won” the Democratic primaries in 2016. Same reason she didn’t win in 2008 - they already chose who was going to win, and she wasn’t it.

      Yeah but instead of pushing through a candidate who struggled to connect with voters, maybe we push for a candidate who has things going in the right direction between them and voters.

      Even if they win the presidency (if there are even still free and fair elections by that point), a candidate like Harris will depress voter turnout and leave America with a lame duck or Republican Congress like in 2024. You want fascists for 2032? Because that’s how you get fascists for 2032. And that’s if the country doesn’t get halfway there by 2032 entirely through Democratic inaction.

      There’s a chance he could lose, but before that, there are the primaries, and he must go through that process. But before that, there are the congressional midterm elections, and that’s when we’ll see the changes.

      But there are cases where a Republican president wins the election, but Congress is Democratic. If JD Vance wins, I’d like Congress to be Democratic and have a supermajority; it would be a way to control the election.

      Perhaps because Team Obama isn’t as active, as he’s now a former president.

      Harris is a candidate who could run for governor of California or for president again, so going to Bluesky is a way to stand out.

      Also, Team Harris likely received training on how DNS works in Bluesky from the Democratic Party.

      Must be nice to be a famous person, I can’t even get 2 likes on a post on Bluesky, but she can get 41k followers in a matter of hours :(
