Gonna pop my words into this bubble of Kamala confidence blindness—now with a new artificial ingredient: joy!—which cost HRC the election and may well do in the Democrats again.

Democrats so well trained to make sure they don't make any demands of their party. Especially the Comfortables with investment portfolios—certainly willing to not pay attention to the likes of Dick Cheney and Goldman Sachs behoind the curtain.

"It's better than the other side" should be their party slogan—and thus confirming you don't need much beyond the word slush they offer their voters every four years. Promises are to be broken might be another catchphrase. Ignore the working class and get the black vote after which time you can forget them. They'll bring this circus around again in 2028 etc.

Bend over, vote blue no matter how we manipulate the ticket (see 2016 Wasserman Schiltz, 2020 Obama), and don't ask for lube. We are the party fighting for Democracy. Snicker.

Harris sure did share her positions on Ukraine and the Middle East — things you can count on her continuing, the other stuff she'll ignore after the election — and why after 50+ years voting blue, at my advanced age I finally registered unaffiliated this year.
