    We’ll have non biased primary next time…

    Kamala has never stood a chance with those.

    The big danger is the astroturfing for Newsom and Pritzker. That’s where all the billionaires (including pritzker) are sinking their money, hoping to build name recognition early and counting on how ignorant most voters are.

    Sadly, it seems to be working

        $ and billionaire owned media

        People love to assume not being a Republican means you can’t be grifted. But a shit ton of media just hear CNN call them “fighters” for having PR people along shit on social media while they grab credit for anything positive that happens in their state.

        And that builds “name recognition”.

        If billionaires won’t stop telling you how great someone is, they probably suck
