"How to lose an election but make bank on selling a book"?

It is exactly a way to funnel funds to a candidate. Buy books by the crate, just shred them, repeat. The right wingers have been doing this forever and Dems can’t turn down money either

Yeah but she’d damn well better not be the candidate again.

Oh hell no. Voting blue last time as damage control was a strategy I could buy into. This time? Give us an honest, open, messy primary or plan to lose.

How campaigning with war criminals should have worked volume 2?

I wonder if it’s going to be another “tell all” book where they make money selling the info that they should have given us as it was happening.

Out of everything she can do, she does this. Yikes. She wouldn’t have made a good president.

Even Tim Walz has been out doing shit and helping other Dems get elected. She disappeared and wrote a book?

To be fair, she's wealthy enough it's probably a Ghost Writer

With raving cover-flap blurbs by Liz & Dick Cheney, Alberto Gonzales, Adam Kinzinger, and Anthony Scaramucci!!

She can go ahead and have this title for free: "My Struggle: Snatching Defeat from the Jaws of Victory“

Stand up to Trump and speak out about what’s going on or make a book to sell??? Hmmm choices.

This is capitalism she's could do both and make a killing.

You must stand up to him and organize against him and by the way you can get a signed copy of My book by scanning the QR code at any of the exits on your way out this evening.

“My campaign as a woman in a misogynist country.”

Or maybe

“Sorry my estrogen was more of a negative than fascism and genocide. Please accept my apologies bros.”

Harris lost because her campaign sucked - not due to her ovaries. Harris was more interested in suburban Republican voters than Democrats in her own base. She did little to differentiate herself from the unpopular & sclerotic Biden administration; and her surrogates effectively told people who wanted universal healthcare and Palestinian liberation to go fuck off.

As opposed to the cheese puff's gang that told people who wanted Universal Healthcare and Palestinian liberation to fuck off

You see the problem, then.

Bullshit.

Trad wife and Christian culture are tacitly accepted as is the fascism. Her gender played a major role, it’s absurd to anybody observing Americans to see it otherwise.

Wow way to infantilize this person. All you see is her gender, huh?
