BREAKING: New reports suggest that the Pentagon may be preparing to deploy the 82nd Airborne Division to take part in a ground invasion of Iran. The Washington Post reports that this elite unit has been instructed not to participate in scheduled exercises, and is awaiting further orders. Will they be the first "boots on the ground" as Trump escalates the war with Iran to new heights?
A U.S. ground invasion would be absolutely catastrophic. Huge numbers of U.S. troops would die, unthinkable Iranian casualties would ensue, and the economic crisis would deepen. It would be just like George Bush's disastrous invasion of Iraq, but perhaps even more bloody. The U.S. public knows this — that's why Trump administration officials have lied about their intentions so insistently.
Now is the decisive moment. The people of this country need to take a stand before it's too late and Trump plunges us into yet another forever war in the Middle East.
Protests are taking place nationwide tomorrow as part of a powerful coordination day of action. Join a demonstration near you!

This man is a demon, it is true, but you can do better than using a misogynistic slur, come on now.
Just in time for war.
Serious purity testing here. What he actually says:
I'm transphobic!
This all seems very reasonable and fine. I’d vote for him.
Maybe Kamala Harris should have read the fucking room.
Any time! 
So, a lot of words to cover one basic idea.
What is the basic idea?
You have no current alternative to the Dems.
If dem voters think Newsom is a bad candidate, then what should the dems do?
But yes, you attacking me will certainly get those low information voters to fly to the polls.
The dems sure don't care about getting them to fly out to the polls.
Do you really hear yourself when you type these words out? I really want to understand. Do you not see what the Democratic Party analysts are saying? People turned away from the Democrats because they were unconvincing. The Democrats did not present themselves as the realistic choice to the people who mattered. Again, new voters broke for the Republican Party for the first time. Why did they do that? Why did Harris not capture new voters? Third party voters did not change the outcome of the election, that is not what the data shows. Why are you even talking about them? Why did Harris fail to capture the "politically disengaged and ideologically heterodox, aka low-information voters" who decided to stay home? Those people didn't even bother voting, they didn't vote for third parties, the system failed them and they stayed home. From the Vox article [emphasis mine]:
Taken together, all these figures paint a disconcerting picture for Democrats. The party has long wagered that time was on its side: Since America’s rising generations were heavily left-leaning — and the country was becoming more diverse by the year — it would become gradually easier for Democrats to assemble national majorities, even as the party bled support among non-college-educated white voters.
And it’s true that Democrats still do better with young and nonwhite voters than with Americans as a whole. But the party’s advantage with those constituencies has been narrowing rapidly. Last year’s returns suggest that demographic churn isn’t quite the boon that many Democrats had hoped, and can be easily outweighed by other factors. Meanwhile, as blue states bleed population to red ones, Democrats are poised to have a much harder time winning Electoral College majorities after the 2030 census [but don't forget, Trump won the popular vote in 2024 as well]. Given current trends, by 2032, a Democratic nominee who won every blue state — and added Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania — would still lose the White House.
How Democrats can arrest the rightward drift of young and nonwhite Americans — while broadening their geographic base of support — is up for debate. But pretending that the swing electorate does not exist, or that unreliable Democratic voters are all doctrinaire progressives, probably won’t help.
I'm not sure what you're arguing about at this point. The Democrats did not present themselves as the obvious choice. Voters did not see Democrats as the obvious choice. Democratic Analysts have shown, through their own analysis of millions of records and data points, that this election was lost do to a failure to capture demographics The Democrats have historically won. This is a failure of the party and their campaign, a failure of the message, and of the candidate.
If you are not going to seek out why this failure happened, then you are doomed to continue to fail.

The Democrats can never fail, they can only be failed. You can spend billions on a campaign and yet it's the constituency who needs to have done more. Pathetic.
Who was supposed to push hard for her? Also you can admit you were wrong you know.
