- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

I love Buttigieg, would definitely vote for him, but this would make me anxious. We already have black woman running and there are a lot of people in swing states that have a problem with just that.
I just want to be sure that the fascist criminal will lose.
But he's a veteran. Would they vote for the cop + veteran ticket or the felon + coach fucker one?
Time to show their true colors.
It didn't work for John Kerry when he ran against a draft dodger. I guess being a combat vet wasn't enough? Having been a cop would tip the balance?
Well, we all know that the salute-the-troops, thank-you-for-your-service crowd are just playing pretend.
We all saw what happened when their nominee insulted a purple heart recipient and past POW, and everyone just cheered.
Well they elected a football coach over a former DA. You know, a literal "law and order" type.
Never underestimate conservatives' ability to put their biases over their alleged morals.
GOP/Conservatives hate veterans. All of them do. They like to wave the flag and pretend, but they elected a literal draft dodging bitch who openly mocked Gold Star families. A big part of P2025 is the destruction of the VA and VA Compensation.
Don’t let any Republican voter act like they are pro-veteran or military.
Trump even called them "losers" and "suckers" IIRC.
And then votes for him. If someone votes for Trump, you get to throw it in their how they voted for someone that called veterans “losers”.
I just got to do this to the out laws talking shit on Harris. “So you voted for the draft dodging bitch that called veterans losers? Must suck to suck.”
The latter
Couchfucker > futtbucker
My take as well. We need to win this one. I love Pete, and would happily vote for him for president of he were the nominee, but a black woman and a gay man on the same ticket is just going to be too much for a lot of voters. Plus, I think they need to select someone from a purple state who can help bring in important votes.
Kamala Romney
Making America pick between fascism or whether or not they would rather a futt bucker, is a risky spicy gamble
