Harris has cosponsored bills on de scheduling marijuana (including Cory Booker's MORE act) so...

But as pointed out Biden's the one who's anti-weed.

Considering how she backed off on (correctly) calling him a segregationist I think she�ll fall into line on this.

Of course it means something. It shows that Biden and Harris don't hold grudges and are willing to work with each other despite their differences, which squishy liberals like.

Also of note:

She correctly called him out on being a segregationist and scampered away from it the next day, she has a spine of wet sand.

Unwanted touching is not sexual assault. It's actually one of the reasons why I, as a woman, would like to see some of the older and more clear terminology employed. Biden himself admitted that his standards for personal space and touching needed to change, but that is not the same as saying her saying that he is guilty of or admitted guilt for rape.

No, I�d say it is.

But online leftists say she�s a cop

I wonder how much Trump�s stupidity and bad messaging will now push people towards Kamala.

She is a cop though.

Some guy touching my hair is obnoxious but it's not rape. The only reason to try to equate those things is to manipulate the experiences of women for personal political ends. No woman who has experience both would say that they are the same.

Joe Biden has done way more than that though.

Hot take: Being a District Attorney and Attorney General does not make someone a "cop". You can argue that she hosed up many times in her tenure in those positions and is too harsh on crime but the public at large does not associate her with being a cop or supporting cops in the most recent protests.

I�d say bragging about being the Top Cop of California does.

Counterpoint: gently caress cops. gently caress cop adjacents. gently caress cop enablers.

Maybe she�s changed, but she feels like a hollow suit politician so I doubt it. Still, I agree with most people here that her as VP doesn�t really change much in this race.

She backed off on calling Biden a segregationist, why should anyone believe she�s changed?

If someone lifts one of my long golden hairs off of a chair and jerks off to it later, that still doesn't mean I was raped. Where are you were raped is not actually a matter of whether you emotionally feel like you were raped, it's a matter of whether a specific action took place.

Kamala Never agreed with the premise that she believed Biden was guilty of digital penetration, which is what you were claiming that the article says, when it does not. She was talking about a completely different action.

You especially do not get to define what is and isn�t rape given your posting history.

I don't think many even vaguely left people are super happy about the pick.

However, I confess that the strategy of picking the centerest centrist and then letting the Trump campaign sell her to the left isn't a bad idea.

Do you really think it will work?

If it doesn't, it won't be due to lack of trying on Trump's part.

I just don�t think �we should use fascists to sell centrists to leftists� is a very healthy strategy overall.

It's a guy who looked at information, considered it, and then changed his mind. That's actually a good thing.

No, when it comes to abandoning abolishing ICE it�s actually really bad and deeply loving immoral.

You're assuming the Dems are voting based on specific issues and not "gently caress the rude man in the White House."

If there's one thing I'm not worrying about tonight, it's depressed Dem turnout.

What happens if Trump sues his way to the Supreme Court and they throw out enough mail in ballots and stop enough recounts to hand him the presidency?
