We certainly got a theatrical primary this year.
I’m honestly a little shocked more people aren’t upset that party operatives essentially chose the candidate for us twice in a row.
They ignored us when we said Biden was too old and then waited until we couldn’t run another primary and leaned on the sham primary “where everyone voted Biden” and then when it became clear he WAS too fucking old and they could no longer hide it, they had party apparatchiks choose the candidate for us.
I am pleased at the momentum behind her because the alternative is outright fascism, but it’s clear Harris is a party choice, not a people choice.
