      They didn’t just pay trump

      They paid the only other option too, knowing that what she would have to do for the money helped Trump’s chances more than donating to him directly would.

      Kamala and the DNC were obsessed with raising money, but none of them know how to spend it to get votes.

      They got blinded by the dollar signs and we’re all fucked. Doubly so if we don’t use the next four years to plan for 2028. If current DNC leadership won’t step down for a new direction it’s time to start a new party
