Some of the above constitutes quite reasonable criticism, IMO, but some less so.

To me, the biggest concern about VP Harris is not that she once took some fairly far left positions. Rather, that she changes all the time and I don't feel like she has any sort of cohesive ideology, other than trying to get elected. Now, does she need to have a "cohesive ideology" in order to be a good President? Probably not. A grab bag of moderately left solutions is at least on the right track. What she needs is to surround herself with good people and to be a good decision-maker.

There was definitely a feeling of euphoria when Biden dropped out: It was so depressing to see Trump literally dodge a bullet and there was Biden... gettin' COVID. And I think voters under 30 or so were having a really hard time relating to the two old candidates.

But that euphoria is going to die down. Let's see what else we got.

Will the former Leftists, now de facto tRumpists, be upset when tRump's Secretary of Defense Tom Cotton assists Bibi killing every Palestinian in Gaza, green lights the cleansing of Lebanon and advocates for tossing Gaza Invasion protestors in the United States off bridges?…..or is that simply acceptable collateral damage in achieving their end game?

Do they realize that tRump subscribes to no political philosophy? He simply shotguns promises in the hope of getting the most votes possible and then once he's in who gives a f@uck?

Do you think Isolationist for a Day tRump knows Tom Cotton is a war Hawk…or even cares?

tRump's gots some real estate developin' to do in the Middle East and Russia with those brain trust boys of his and he can't be concerned with any politic'in or political philosophisin' that ain't directly related to the money make'in get in his way.

republicans are just plain weird.

How long until we are told that Kamala Harris was born in a log cabin that she built with her own hands? Will the BS Tsunami about her presidential campaign break all records? My Youtube NYPost video https://t.co/BORnMb4Vhy

Kamala nominated today by "virtual vote" without having placed a single policy position anywhere on her website. Just a personal bio, fundraising solicitations, and merch. She really is a "historic" candidate -- historic in the shocking lack of scrutiny she's been subjected to pic.twitter.com/jePlgUA98O

No scrutiny? She's been the VP of the US for the last 4 years!

I assume James Bovard won't vote for Harris or tRump.
