If Kamala gets the nod b/c of her ball breaking talent, I'm real good with that!
the more people who can take the Trump "team" the better. Joe can rise above it all and be reassuring and reasonable and calm everybody down. But they'll need an ass-kicker on board and if that woman is Kamala, I'm cheering!

(63,926 posts)Joe will be superb at making his (and the country's) case. Maybe his team feels that a good ass kicker is needed on the team and have decided that she is the one.
I dunno, I just get that feeling.
I could be wrong and he'll choose my first choice, Susan Rice. But that was yesterday. Today I'm wondering if that oops with the talking points note in Joe's hand is a way of "announcing" it early and letting us figure out what it might mean.
Of course, I've been wrong before on these matters so

(31,134 posts)what is necessary with these criminals.
I believe we DONT need that talk right now.
I was on record LONG AGO that while I support Joe big time my fear was he would let them off the hook. And his latest comment about us coming together as a nation kind of tells me my fear was well founded.
HOWEVER given the condition we are now in, if letting most of them off the hook is the price we have to pay to get a patriot elected, so be it.
I wont like it AT ALL, but my option is to be KILLED by the GOP who is ACTIVELY trying to kill me and you as we speak.

No one likes that they will not see jail time. My sentiments are similar in that if this is the price to be rid of him..then so be it
I take solace in the fact that he is dead flat broke and his name will mean nothing when he is no longer IMPOTUS

Like Reagan,
Like Poppy Bush,
Like gwb/cheney, rummy, etc.
Like the Wall Street bankers.
This is how/why we are currently suffering this trDumpie horror show.
If criminals suffer no consequences for their crimes they have no compunction to curtail their criminal ways. Their crimes will get exponentially worse and worse because every intersection they encounter gives them a green light to swiftly proceed. Never do they see a red light impeding their swift passage.
We are fools to think trDump's admin will be the last Rethug admin. After Biden is done the Rethugs will be back to run our government. If we do not nail these criminals, lock them up, and bar them from ever again serving in government many of these same criminals will be back again to join succeeding Rethug admins in the future.
If we don't slam these Rethug criminals to the floor real hard they will be back to haunt us again and again. We must come to terms with that fact.
Playing nice with ruthless vipers and criminals is foolishness that will lead to the demise of our Democracy.

Eliot Rosewater
(31,134 posts)who assures me she has way too much baggage.
No, she doesnt. What she DOES have however is a brain bigger than any random 200 cons combined and experience taking down CRIMINALS, and they do NOT like that.

(43,049 posts)if Joe is OK with it, the rest of us should be, too.
I'm drooling at the thought of her on the stage with Pence. The only downside may be him getting sympathy votes after getting his ass so reamed.
And every time the tangerine wankmaggot opens his mouth, she'll be crouched like a tiger to tale him down.
Tiger Mom Kamala-- nice ring to it for President in a few years.

(31,134 posts)has lost his mind the last couple of years.
If baggage he means she was tough on criminals how could CONS twist that to be bad?

(7,814 posts)So would any number of elected Democratic office holders.
Secretly I'm hoping she gets the AG spot. She would be even more fantastic at holding the current thugs responsible for their crimes.
