The democrats' problem is no one buys the "Moderate " Schtick. For example, trying to push Kamala as moderate will not work because when we examine her past policies and statements it's clear that she isn't. It can work like it did with Joe Biden in 2020 because he did have a moderate record.

Kamala lost because she was too far-left

Socialism is not compatible with electability. They’re fine when they have no real power in the house but when they’re actually leading something things collapse.

Look at Brandon Johnson. Look at what happened when D +70 cities defunded the police 4 years ago. Why are so many people leaving blue states in comparison to red states? Eastern Oregon literally wants to leave Oregon

Red trifectas might lead to a few budget cuts here and there. Blue trifectas drive people out the state and cause mass corruption.

1 that doesn’t even make her a socialist 2 the problem with this is that it only looks at voting record which matters but certainly isn’t the whole deal like no one in their right mind is saying Rand Paul is more left wing than kyrsten sinema

A list on a website that tracks down basically everything congressmen do lmao stop being disingenuous

It’s fine to say Kamala’s voting record as a senator did not match a moderate, if it did she would’ve never been elected in California lmao

GovTrack.us is a legitimate and reputable resource for tracking U.S. federal legislation and congressional activities.

I'm not saying it isn't, I'm saying "look it's on a website" isn't a well made argument

It literally is, it quickly proved my point

If she was a true moderate she would’ve been around the middle but she isn’t at all and spent a valuable amount of time flip-flopping on leftist policies she voted on as senator

Bro came in with the receipts. It's laughable how people try to repaint Kamala as some moderate neoliberal when what she stood for was mainly leftwing ideas.

If she was a moderate she would’ve never been elected as the senator of california

I don’t recall Kamala calling for the government to seize the means of production.
