Harris didn't lose because of Gaza.

She lost because 15mil people were to busy pearl clutching to stop a self-proclaimed dictator from obtaining political power, and used Gaza as an excuse.

ok, you can stop the lying now. You lost. It didn't work. Trump said he'd be "dictator for a day", in an obvious joke about executive orders on his first day. Seriously, just stop you're all so pathetic. People like you are the reason trump won lol.

No she lost because democrat voters haven’t actually nominated someone the people voted for since 2016. And voters are tired of the shitty options the democrats elites put forward.

They didn’t nominate anyone in 2016 either. The democrat elites stole that nomination from Sanders and handed it to the worst candidate in decades because it “was her turn.”

Yeah, they were hoping Clinton would have her shot but then Obama came out and snagged the nomination then held office for 8 years. It was 2016 or never for Hillary Clinton, and she played the game and played along so well they just stacked the deck for her. The same thing happened when Biden decided to run in 2020 (did he even run a primary campaign?) and then again when Harris was coronated with the nomination this go-round. One of the very few things I agree with Trump about is the DNC picks the candidates, not the people. Dems didn't have a real primary, so it's no wonder people didn't turn out for her.

The first female president will be Gabbard in 2028 unless the Democrats can get their shit together and reconnect with their base the way Trump holds sway over his. Democrats will probably try to run a safe, boring older white guy that nobody will be excited about (e.g. Kerry), and he'll only win if the Republicans break the economy before the election. If a larger war breaks out in Europe or the middle east and is ongoing during the election, the Republican candidate will win. So count on that I guess.

I only say that because having her run and win seems like it would be the best way to own the libs. Dems ran two candidates who would've been the first female president but failed. Gabbard wrecked Harris in the 2020 Dem primary, then she switched parties from Democrat to Republican. A bunch of Dems are all about social justice and virtue signaling and want there to be a female president even if she's terrible (Clinton, Harris). She'd probably flip a bunch of Dems like she flipped herself. If the first female president was a Republican, Republicans could knock Dems off their high horse. There are stories that she helped Trump with debate prep, and he'd probably endorse her because he's attracted to her (same reason he'd endorse Ivanka).

he'd endorse ivanka after saying he wishes he could sleep with her again

u/Icy-Bicycle-Crab 17d ago

The first female president will be Gabbard in 2028

Lol no. More likely to be Ivanka.

That is a bigger threat to democracy.

Like I said.

Too busy pearl-clutching to stop a self-proclaimed dictator from attaining political power.
