    I had to pause before her inevitable catchphrase. I feel like it would be a catalyst to send the rest of my day to the shitter.

    Clapback queen! It worked so well last time!

    Edit: Kalamazoo is a funny name. I hope this is the speech that gets put into communist history books in the future, so children can snicker about it in the corners of the classroom (this is not an invitation to start a school strugglesession)

      Around here people often abbreviate it to K-zoo. It’s the home of Gibson guitars, the outdoor shopping mall, and the curb cut:

    Me applying for a job:

    “I didn’t come here to listen to any of you, I came to tell you all how it’s going to be. Here it is, you are going to choose me and I am going to handle all this shit. #BratSummerXanax”

    “Did you just say a hashtag out loud?”

    “I’m speaking.”

    Notice how her emphasis is on “bringing the hostages home” and not one word of sympathy for Gazans suffering an actual genocide with the help of her administration.

      It’s wild how she can stick to that message when Israel has made it abundantly clear that they don’t give a shit about arranging to get the hostages returned.

        I believe we must give enough arms to Palestine to make up for 70 years of arming Israel, just so things are fair.

      She’s more concerned about Hamas not putting the genocidal settlers who killed their families and stole their houses up at the Ritz than she is about some lowly Palestinian children being murdered

    her poor father. He probably did his best, but some kids want to rebel, and for a Marxist becoming president of the US is a pretty big rebellious faze.

    her best chance to win is that she is an empty suit for the MIC, her downfall could be that she’s a human void to the point that even the machine finds her useless as a front. If anything is going to get them to give trump another turn despite his incompetence and volatility it’s her lack of ability to draw attention away from the soulless vampirism of the machine in a way that even he accomplishes as a sort of lightning rod

      That was what i was wondering. What’s the point of going to Michigan if you’re going to be like, “We’re not talking about Gaza right now.” Obviously a lot of people in that state care about foreign policy so maybe you should talk about it? If not, just give up on Michigan and go somewhere else lol.
