The person running for office is a politician? Say it isn’t so!
I wonder why this article is being released before the election, rather than later when the cooling of support isn’t extremely likely to lead to a strategic disadvantage? 🤔 Oh well, it’s probably just a coincidence. 🤷♂️ Definitely no ulterior motives here. 👍
Nothing wrong with being a politician when you’ve positively contributed in other capacities earlier in life. Career politicians from the start are the problem.
I don’t think anyone doubted this. Harris/Walz is a pro-politician anti-fascist ticket. I think we’re just looking for a sense of normalcy.
And JD Vance isn’t really from Appalachia, but Tim Walz doesn’t hang out with Donald Trump, Peter Thiel, and Curtis Yarvin, or degrade women who don’t have kids, and isn’t creepy as fuck, so what’s your point?
Nothing in the article is negative except for a quote from a conservative saying he’s “full of shit”. Got ‘em?
Paywall’ed.
Fyi the internet archive has paywall free versions of most Atlantic articles
Would you eat a turd or an old sandwhich you found in your bag?
Both are rotten, but one of them is much much worse.
What is that supposed to mean?
I think the meaning is fairly obvious; an imperfect ally is better than an all-out enemy. If you wanna do politics, you need to learn who you can safely ally with, who your actual friends are, and who will always be your enemy.
Edit: oh wow, look at all those comments on ML. I wonder why this person would object to lesser evil rhetoric favoring the democrats.
