    I feel like this was their talking point regardless of who got picked, just like Trump constantly says Kamala had the most radical leftist record in Congress…lmao

    The only thing that would’ve changed if she picked Shapiro is that they would’ve constantly made fun of him for sounding like Obama… which was hilarious when the Daily Show pointed it out… but Fox would’ve taken it to extreme levels because its exactly the sort of “sleepy joe” storyline they’ve been looking for to keep the MAGA name-calling/bully contingent placated.

      They called Biden and Hillary fucking communists…

      It’s actually a good thing for progressives, because when we do actually run a progressive, they don’t have anywhere else to go.

      They’ll say the same about anyone with a D by their name, so we might as well run progressives.
