He and his daughter put their necks on the line to support her. So I can only expect something like this.

Noooo but muh purity test! We need to take what we can get! The DNC should have banned Mamdani from running so that Kamala could run in New York instead and if you think that's a bad idea that's just because you let your delusional perfect fantasies be the enemy of ~~the good~~ , well, ~~the okay~~ , er... the...

it’s not a “purity test”.
i wish she wouldn’t have been cheated when she won the presidency, but she’s a terrible person and terrible representative.
Dick Cheney led us into a multi-year war in Iraq based entirely on lies and made millions of dollars from it… he’s responsible for thousands of murders, ruining millions of lives, and damaging billions of lives.
“muh purity test” it’s not… it’s the “don’t praise war criminals” test
…. or maybe YOU have the WMD’s in your backyard?

This is why even democrats didn't want to vote for you Kamla, you need to do better than just being a corporate phony

Politicians need to learn to not comment.

Kamala wasn't involved in national politics at the same time as cheney. When cheney was last in office, Kamala was the district attorney of SF, an local office that only deals with the laws of California. No plausible working relationship between the two. They were not even interacting with the same laws. They worked in entirely different levels of government. There is no need for any statement.

Regardless of politics, any statement like this will sound disingenuous. If she knows Lynne, Liz, Mary, and the entire family well enough to have them in her thoughts, she could tell them directly. Calling someone to wish them the best in a hard time is a commendable act. Making a public statement telling other people that you care about someone else is just weird.

Yeah, we're definitely better off with her not being president. Much happier with what we got instead.

[–] Tyrq@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 5 months ago (4 children)

This whole fiasco might result in a much stronger and more socialist left flank all in all, so I look forward to more wins like mamdani, I guess time will tell

Meh, boiler plate "Thoughts and Prayers". It's as meaningless as a campaign promise.

[–] Adderbox76@lemmy.ca 11 points 5 months ago (8 children)

It's called tact. Adults generally have it.

[–] SphereofWreckening@lemmy.world 10 points 5 months ago

Cheney doesn't deserve tact. All he deserves is a piss-soaked grave.

Not surprising, her campaign was awful and as soon as she lost she was nowhere to be seen.

Stuff like this reminds me why they lose to fascists. When they like to say the proto-fascists are practicing politics correctly it really waters down their message and what is at stake.

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 10 points 5 months ago

This is what trying to meet in the middle with people who will never, ever vote for you looks like: you just alienate people who would normally vote for you by sounding like a freaking moron space alien.

[–] CaptainBlinky@lemmy.myserv.one 9 points 5 months ago

Well at the very least, she lost the presidency and will probably never win it.

[–] Doomsider@lemmy.world 9 points 5 months ago

Ding dong the bastard is dead. He is probably responsible for more innocents dead than anyone else who has died this year.

The fact that we have to play nice when AOTUS is wiping his ass with the constitution and othering Americans for funsies is pretty ridiculous.
