Bill Clinton said this two days before election day in an interview with CNN.

What pisses me off is some Dems (majority white) are now trying to suppress how we speak and how we think to win white working class voters back. That’s BS 🧵

H/T .@magi_jay for sharing this with me

What we need to figure out is what do Democrats really stand for. Are you for equality and equity? Do you embrace diversity? Are you okay with standing up for the lgbtq community especially trans and non-binary people? Are you going to protect or abandon marginalized people????

The R party is beholden to Trump but Dems should be beholden to our values. R’s are punking Dem elected’s about “Wokeness” “DEI” & all this nonsense. Flip the narrative. When you stand up for us that is when a new coalition will form but right now too many seem scared of R’s.

The white-lashing we just took is a painful reality check. The post obama-era has been hell. Biden brought back sanity and calm but American’s love chaos and foolery.

In 2020 the Elders knew only Biden could take Trump out, and they were right 🧵

Biden resisted leaving the race because he felt he could beat Trump. He was “forced” out because of the debate, media frenzy, and his own party wanted a change (not me). He believed in his VP and passed the torch. Joe Biden did what he thought was best for the party. He is a good man.

I think VP did all she could to win with only 107 days but we have to accept that grievance politics, racism and misogyny is more appealing to some than joy and/or even policy. We are 0-2 w/ overly qualified women going against Trump. Majority of Americans wanted an incompetent male President.

The discourse is getting crazy, multiple things can true:

1) Biden is a great President!
2) He had a bad debate, Dems panicked
3) The media was ridiculous
4) Drop out brigade began but simmered
5) Pelosi’s Morning Joe answer was a 💣
6) Biden intended to stay in
7) He got COVID

8) While sick, drop out brigade continued, polls tanked
9) Nancy & them thought VP should be challenged if he dropped
10) Biden made the FINAL decision that Saturday, he dropped out Sunday
11) VP and Biden made calls, secured endorsements and the delegates

VP is the nominee!

Politics is like a bloodsport, very few are loyal.

Could Biden still have won? Yes!

Did the drop out brigade pressure to drop? Yes!

Was his campaign at full speed? It was okay but boring.

Is it better now with Kamala? YES!

We need to win…time to move on..

4 weeks ago there were people who thought Kamala Harris should be challenged if Joe Biden dropped out, including Pelosi and others, and this was well reported..

But you know why this didn’t happen — Joe Biden endorsed Kamala immediately and the Dem party followed his lead

🧵

Joe Biden not only secured his legacy but also showed his loyalty to Kamala Harris, his VP and friend. He knew she was ready.

With the announcement, Kamala made her calls, Joe made calls, endorsement flowed & there was a new sense of excitement in the midst of sadness.

Using a sports analogy — Biden was the older MVP QB who was hurt (by the debate), the media said he sucked, teammates (congress members) wanted him to retire, his stats plummeted and he finally said you know what I am retiring at the end of the season.

President Joe Biden exited the 2024 election as the nominee with 107 days to go. He immediately endorsed his VP Kamala Harris; she raised $200M and secured enough delegates in 48hrs.

VP Harris pick is likely not to fit the norms of past elections, here is why..🧵

VP Harris will have 3 full weeks vs 3+ months to vet someone.

In the last 40 years Dem VP’s selected have worked in the Senate (Benson 1988, Gore 1992, Lieberman 2000, Edwards 2004, Biden 2008, Kaine 2016, Harris 2020) with one exception Ferraro 1988 who was a congresswoman.

This year will be different unless Senator Mark Kelly is selected. Tim Walz was in the House for 12 years prior to becoming Gov and Pete has been a cabinet secretary for 3.5 years. The rest are Govs/former AG’s.

Beasher, Cooper and Shapiro have never worked in the federal gov’t.

The media focusing on polling a year in advance should have been a sign of things to come. If it wasn’t this debate, it would have been something else. Their goal has always been to sow doubt in voters minds about Biden.

My question is why are certain Dems feeding into this? 🧵

I see a bunch of white Dem men, never trumpers + 2 TX Latino men (Castro and Grijalava) being the weak links helping the media by saying Biden should drop out. You are only helping Trump and really don’t give a damn about us. It’s very opportunistic and shows your weak character.

Glad Fetterman is being loud in supporting Biden. Clyburn has done the same although some tried to twist his words.

The Govs including my own, Newsom and others support Biden. And Sheila Jackson Lee has been vocal on social media as well. Thank u!
