I honestly thought it was a bad idea to pivot to Harris but I was happily proven wrong. There’s so much excitement and energy surrounding her. Like a breath of fresh air. Glad to see it.
She got behind the “defined the police” movement until she was added to the Biden team and had to back his administration’stances.
A former prosecutor who called out how overfunded police agencies are sounds like someone with pretty decent perspective from both sides. She understands both the value and shortcomings of law enforcement.
I’m getting tired of all this calling Harris a cop. She was a prosecutor but you’re equating her to ACAB.
Prosecutors are how you hold bad cops accountable, by prosecuting them. Do you condemn the prosecutors who put George Floyd’s murderers behind bars? (They were amazing!). Do you condemn the prosecutors who are holding accountable people like the Jan 6 insurrectionists, trump, bannon, giuliani, etc?
Who do you expect to do these things or do you not care if justice is done? I’m sick of this double standard.
I think people get too tied up with this idea of the “perfect” candidate
No candidate was, is, or shall be perfect.
Every politician that you have the opportunity to vote for will have some aspect of their past or their platform that you (or other voters) will disagree with in some capacity. And I fear that this need for perfection in their candidate is fertile ground for others to manipulate people’s attitudes towards not voting for an imperfect but otherwise good candidate.

Woot woot!
She’s not perfect. Like she’s a cop and such.
Still, she’s not raping folks. She’s not grabbing them by the pussy…
It’s bad. But all y’all better get on board. It can be a whole lot worse.

I think this is a strawman, given how much excitement there is for Harris, who is an acceptable compromise candidate.
