i just said its not a good look. obviously him not doing that is better. but id be shocked if he actively campaigned against his mother and honestly if he did it would indicate hes a true piece of shyt to people and wouldnt be taken seriously. at least i wouldnt take him seriously.

and im glad you admit youre biased in favor of kamala because its pretty clear other people in here are as well and their never-ending affection for her is clouding their judgment

well my judgment is that taking all factors into consideration, kamala is the best pick

warren and the socialism label is not what this ticket needs. you can already see how trump is tripling down on biden raising taxes because its literally all hes got

I just read a pretty detailed article on him from 2018 that covers a lot about him and the family dynamic:

• At the time of the article he had by his and his mother’s words a perfectly functional relationship with no animosity and seemingly close
• He at the time was more a conservative than Trump supporter.

Considering that was close to two years ago he may not be be supportive of Trump today.

I didn’t dig further but based on the article he’s more conservative than Trump supporter and a touch of a trying to counter balance liberal culture at Stanford.

CHICAGO — Tammy Duckworth is no longer an afterthought in the Democratic veepstakes.

The Illinois senator and Purple Heart recipient has landed squarely in the conversation after a high-profile clash with Tucker Carlson last week and her advocacy against politicization of the military in the weeks prior.

The attention hasn't escaped Biden's vetting team. It has stepped up information-gathering on Duckworth recently, scrutinizing her legislative record and talking to her colleagues, according to three sources familiar with the matter.


A contingent of Duckworth-for-VP backers, including high-dollar donors and a politically active veterans group, has intensified efforts on her behalf in the past two weeks, pushing her as the best choice for Biden’s running mate.

“I’ve been working my rear end off, trying to get Joe to look at her favorably,” Joe Cotchett, a longtime friend of Biden’s and prominent West Coast Biden bundler, told POLITICO. Cotchett said Duckworth’s no-nonsense response to Carlson has further elevated her prospects.

“If you put Tammy Duckworth on the ballot, a lot of veterans are saying to me, ‘Boy, she represents not only the Midwest but she represents what our party is all about,’” Cotchett said. “Having no legs, to me, is an attribute in this insane election year. It brings to the table a veteran who has been severely wounded that’s speaking out for women and veterans and showing that she’s someone who can take on ‘Cadet Bone Spurs.’”

Susie Buell, a prominent Democratic megadonor, is among those firmly in Duckworth’s camp. Buell backed her home-state senator Harris for president during the primary, but called Duckworth her top pick for vice president.

“I think Tammy is amazing and she would be a great choice,” Buell said. “She certainly has shown her devotion and commitment to country. She is indisputably experienced and prepared. Who could not get behind her?”

John Atkinson, a longtime fundraiser for Duckworth, described a “fury” of recent interest in the senator’s prospects for vice president.

“As this thing gets closer to the selection and as Sen. Duckworth’s profile gets elevated, there’s a lot of excitement among donors,” Atkinson said. “Universally it’s, ‘She’d be fantastic for the ticket. She’d be great.’ The common theme is that as Trump continues to try and politicize our military or wrap himself in the flag to suit his political fortunes, or to attack the Constitution she fought to protect, Tammy is in a unique position to challenge him aggressively and authentically.”

Vote Vets, which promotes progressive candidates for office, is pushing hard for Duckworth to be named Biden's running mate.

“She’ll be a great partner on the campaign trail,” a narrator says in a video entitled “Duckworth is Ready.” “Mike Pence won’t know what hit him.”

VoteVets Chairman Jon Soltz said the group will step up its advocacy for Duckworth as Biden nears his decision. Soltz argued that Duckworth's personal qualities are in line with Biden's but that she also has demonstrated an ability to appeal to swing voters. He cited her outperforming Hillary Clinton in more conservative Illinois counties in 2016.

“Tammy Duckworth is loyal. She did not attack Joe Biden” during the presidential primary, Soltz said. “Tammy has a very good relationship with Joe Biden and has had a relationship with him for many years.”

Tammy Duckworth bursts into VP contention

 

[Outlaw]

didnt even know this

shes OUT imagine that fukking distraction during the campaign?

Nobody cares about Susan Rice. She ain’t gonna make anyone more enthusiastic. The bad optics and distraction ain’t worth it

 

[Piff Huxtable]

i don't really care about a black VP

I'd rather have a black judge in her 40's replace FlabBG on the SCOTUS

 

[Reality]

im not even arguing in favor of picking her. ive said before im neutral at best. its just ridiculous to say that her son is going to dissuade voters from going biden

I don't know why it's ridiculous. She's 1. a black woman and 2. would be a heartbeat away from the presidency w/ a VP who's already in his 70s. White moderates are going to be critical already because of point 1, and hyper critical because of point 2. These are the people we need to vote Biden instead of sitting out this time. Republicans will concern troll Benghazi again just like they did the emails and Benghazi in 2016. We've literally seen this play out before.

 

[the cac mamba]

i wonder if tulsi is still available

 

[NY's #1 Draft Pick]

Newsom has too many skeletons.

Trump is the king of skeletons in closets. I don’t think people are going to give a shyt if it’s a white man

 

[Warren Moon]

I think its down to Harris, Warren and Duckworth. Susan Rice and Val Demings are on the B list. Susan Rice wlll likely be Secretary of State. Val Demings should either run for Governor, or Rubio's Senate seat in 2022.

Why are black men pushing Warren. White women dont even want her as VP. and her VP poll numbers start looking terrible once breaking out segments in battleground states.


We off that popular the coastal cities love me bullshyt , its win it or nothing at all. She aint a winner where it counts

 

[Warren Moon]

If Demings is the pick we're going to see a lot the skeletons in her closet from her time as police chief come out:

When Val Demings Stood by Police Officers Accused of Excessive Force



She defended a cop who broke an 84 year old's neck and a cop who pushed a woman down the stairs of a nightclub. Any police chief is going to have baggage that will be picked apart by BLM and the left. Is that the smartest pick in a time during this national argument about police reform?

She got the process changed. Dude didnt break policy so she stood next to him. She got the policy changed so it would never happen again

 

[Warren Moon]

She got the primetime spot 2 weeks before the announcement . Bidens team approved for her to do it.




Please let this happen

its not a good look. ok, never said it was.

now riddle me this

what is the profile of a voter who will vote trump instead of biden because of susan rices son "campaigning"? please enlighten me

Could be enough to stop an independent from voting at all that was otherwise going to vote Biden. Just as bad
