Kamala is and has always been a shit tier candidate.
Can we finally admit that her entire campaign amounted to gaslighting people into thinking she’s remotely leftist?
…and she’s going to try to run in 28?
She’ll have better chances running as a republican at this point.
Politicians need to learn to not comment.
Kamala wasn’t involved in national politics at the same time as cheney. When cheney was last in office, Kamala was the district attorney of SF, an local office that only deals with the laws of California. No plausible working relationship between the two. They were not even interacting with the same laws. They worked in entirely different levels of government. There is no need for any statement.
Regardless of politics, any statement like this will sound disingenuous. If she knows Lynne, Liz, Mary, and the entire family well enough to have them in her thoughts, she could tell them directly. Calling someone to wish them the best in a hard time is a commendable act. Making a public statement telling other people that you care about someone else is just weird.

Stuff like this reminds me why they lose to fascists. When they like to say the proto-fascists are practicing politics correctly it really waters down their message and what is at stake.
What the actual fuck.
Fucking disgraceful.
It’s literally just a boiler plate acknowledging a current situation post.
Fucking hell you guys.
Cheney was an absolute cunt, but he had one saving grace: he supported gay marriage.
He and his daughter put their necks on the line to support her. So I can only expect something like this.
She could have left out the middle paragraph, and this still would have been a mature, reasonable response without the praise.
Yeah. “We’re sorry for his family that he’s dead, regardless of who he was as a person, that’s gotta suck for them.” Totally fine.
“And here this embodiment of literally everything wrong with America, directly responsible for the deaths of thousands, instrumental in weakening the norms of integrity and public interest for his own financial gain and helping in some small way to lay the foundation for our current debacle, a punchline of corruption and slaughter, infamous in the news and reviled in public life, he’s got my vote though! You see I am not willing to deal in uncomfortable truths even when the public can see them unanimously” could have been omitted.
regardless of who he was as a person, that’s gotta suck for them.

Hmm, yes, interesting. Shall I post what Harris said when Sinwar was killed?
Yeah if he loved America he wouldn’t’ve violated one of its founding tenants across the globe
To be fair, her wording is written very politically. You could say it of pretty much any top political figure – good or bad – and have it be true
Cheney caused a lot of death and suffering. Sometimes it was through his actions as a leader, other times his incompetence with a gun. He was dedicated though, spent much of his life in politics
He was dedicated to personal power and enrichment
Yes, that’s exactly what I mean. Dedication doesn’t have an inherently positive connotation
All you had to do was say nothing, Kamala.
Why do liberals not realize that the right will NEVER vote for them no matter how much they pander, and everyone else hates them because they have no moral or ethical compass.
they are the right
Because liberals are right-wing.
Because they want bribes.
Jeez, democrats seem to really like Charlie Kirk and Dick Cheney.
I wonder why they’re having trouble with Muslim voters…
And Democratic voters
Oh no they can just insult, scold, and abandon their voters and they will still come home. You don’t understand, Democratic politicians are entitled to the votes of minorities.
But, but, but … no matter the politics of their candidate clicking their heels and saying the magic words “vote us to stop the other guy” has always worked as their main electoral strategy.
Obviously with such a magical and infallible electoral strategy, this election loss can only be explained by there being something wrong with the voters themselves as that strategy makes the quality and politics of the candidate be irrelevant!
This x1000. Ain’t even gotta be Eid al-Adha, Muslims stay the scapegoats for Dems.
She’s still playing that “let’s meet in the middle” charade that didn’t do shit for her during her campaign?
Right when seeing a smashing victory by a progressive candidate too. Truly unaccountable
A true believer
I was always taught never to say anything about the dead unless it’s good. He’s dead. Good!

I think that was well crafted.
- No mention of “good” or any other positive in connection with his work.
- mentioned dedication to his work, which is the minimum you can say without insults
- “thoughts” without the “prayers”, that is a really nice slapp :D
I’m sure there is more in there that i missed, but this is basically a “good riddance, finally” in terms that can be understood as polite.
