[–] FrowingFostek@lemmy.world 20 points 2 years ago (5 children) TFW Hillary isn't a woman permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 10 child comments replies: [–] MrVilliam@lemmy.world 27 points 2 years ago (1 child) Clinton didn't call trump out on being a weird little freak during debates. Harris will. If he tries to creepily follow her around like he did to Hillary, Kamala will stop, turn around, and be like "wtf are you doing, you gross creep? Quit following me. See, this is what I'm talking about. He's a predator. He doesn't know how to conduct himself. He's too antagonistic and weird to be trusted to keep tensions low and Americans safe. This sex pest belongs in prison, not the oval office. No other world leader behaves in this manner. I don't know why my secret service detail is even allowing this convicted felon to be this close to America's Vice President in the first place, especially while he's practically foaming at the mouth. Why are you so angry? Just retire and go golfing already. Stop forcing Melania to make public appearances to reinforce the illusion that the third time was the charm just so you can take credit for Nazis ruining the country some more... Anyway, back to the question..." I firmly believe that "will you shut up, man?" was what won 2020 for Biden. Kamala Harris needs to keep her cool like 98% of the time and then allow her frustrations as a fellow human in this absurd time to leak out past her diplomatic filters 2% of the time. It just needs to be firm and calm, and she needs to not apologize afterward when Fox News tries to pretend that she's unstable or "hormonal" or whatever misogynistic/racist framing they come up with. I hope she would double down and say "the man's an asshole. I'm not apologizing for him being an asshole. If you want an apology, go bother him for one." permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Today@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago Omg!
