    She put people in prison for weed, some of which are still serving their sentence. She ain’t left of shit.

          Yeah, damning how she locked up fewer people than her predecessors and how the “she locked up 1500 people for weed” thing is a blatant lie?

              Oh sugar…

              Amidst the dichtomous choice that presents itself, I’m going to go out on a limb and say if you don’t like that, then you certainly won’t like what Trump has in store for you.

                It’s not about my vote. She’s unelectable. Putting her in as the nominae would be handing it to Trump. Same way the DNC handed it to him in 2016 by putting in Hillary.

                  Right, the most progressive candidate we’ve ever had is unelectable. For a thing the administration she was part of decriminalized.

                  That doesn’t make sense.

                    Right, the most progressive candidate

                    Exactly. She has to win not just in the deep blue progressive states. She also has to win the competitive states. She can’t just coast to a victory; She has to actually compete against Trump. ~~~~

                    If “most progressive” was something that the swing states voted for, they wouldn’t be swing states; they would be blue. “Most progressive” will win her the popular vote, and lose the election. Just like it did with Hillary.

                    Contrast with Mark Kelly, a solid blue candidate with a known record of being able to win in red states. Kelly would poach votes from Trump, turning the competitive states blue, and some of the red states competitive.

                    But they didn’t though? Gonna vote for Kamala either way but you don’t have to lie. At best the administration she was part of nicely suggested that we should reschedule it to a lower but still very criminal schedule 3. Please don’t give them credit for shit they didn’t even do, or promise to do.
