Jeez, democrats seem to really like Charlie Kirk and Dick Cheney.
I wonder why they're having trouble with Muslim voters...

And Democratic voters
Oh no they can just insult, scold, and abandon their voters and they will still come home. You don't understand, Democratic politicians are entitled to the votes of minorities.

She could've just not posted anything about his death
Between her and Ezra Klein, I'm starting to think politicians and pundits who don't really stand for anything are afraid they'll be forgotten about if they don't chip in their two cents on anything and everything.
All you had to do was say nothing, Kamala.
Why do liberals not realize that the right will NEVER vote for them no matter how much they pander, and everyone else hates them because they have no moral or ethical compass.
Because they want bribes.
Allow me to modify an old saying:
If you can't say something nice about someone , without lying, then you shouldn't say anything at all.
You can't say anything nice about Dick Cheney without lying so just shut up.
The nice thing is that he can't do any more harm now.
So Abe Lincoln was going to put Simon Cameron in his cabinet. Cameron was kind of a piece of shit, and so Thaddeus Stevens when he heard this got alarmed. When questioned about if he was really saying that Cameron would steal, Thaddeus Stevens thought for a minute and said, well, "I don't think he would steal a red-hot stove."
So the story got around because it is funny. Abe Lincoln in particular thought it was one of the funniest things he ever heard (also while he made Cameron Secretary of War) and told many people. So eventually of course it got back to Cameron. Cameron was pissed, and angrily demanded that Stevens take back the slur on his character.
So Thaddeus Stevens after Cameron had yelled at him said, "Well, he is very mad, and he made me promise to retract. I will now do so. I believe I told you he would not steal a red-hot stove. I now take that back."
She's still playing that "let's meet in the middle" charade that didn't do shit for her during her campaign?
If you're saying "Kamala Harris y'all" in 2025 and this response surprises you, then you need to seriously get your shit sorted out. She made it plain who she was last year. It's why she didn't get elected.
Go away Kamala
How does this surprise you? Kamala is a Depublican. That is basically just a Republican that wears blue and has 1-2 liberal thoughts in their head.
Still big business, still preaches about "reaching across the table" (to give big biz a handy j).
Biden was just as bad if not worse ... that MFer had the house and senate 21-23. Where is Medicare for all? Federal minimum wage? Women's reproductive right protections? Oh ... well that is weird.

Biden raised corporate tax by about a trillion dollars and spent it all on climate change and reducing income inequality by actually going to bat for the poorest people in this country, and y'all still spent all this time shitting on him. I get it. We needed a lot more. But this whole thing "Biden was a monster, I don't even know any good thing he did" is mostly just a creation of our media not really caring about poor people or vital issues (enough to see any of that as significant) any more than Trump does. He was way ahead of the curve in the blighted landscape of corruption and lies that is American governance.
It's fascinating to see her keep saying things that reveal the fatal flaw in her campaign. It's not that she listened to her advisors back then, although they did give her bad advice. Rather, she's lacking values that resonate with the majority of the American people. We all know that the old man was a terrible human being, and yeah, it is probably sad for his family that he passed away, but most of us would simply not say his name again. He earned no respect as a public figure, and we can treat ourselves with dignity by not bringing him up ever again.
Of course you also might want a trash talk him, because of all the horrible things he did, and that's okay too. I think either approach is fine, but the one approach that's not fine is whitewashing all the horrible things he did in his life.
It's literally just a boiler plate acknowledging a current situation post.
Fucking hell you guys.
He was the most vocal supporter of the state engaging in torture. Firstly it's an evil thing to do. But even if you don't care about that, as an American the 8th amendment prohibits cruel and unusual punishment, this is why they had to do it outside US soil. And if you don't love America or the rule of law either, then you should know that the experts agree it doesn't fucking help. Torture doesn't get you good information, it can be used as a population control technique, but it's a risky one that can really backfire, ask Ghaddafi.

Noooo but muh purity test! We need to take what we can get! The DNC should have banned Mamdani from running so that Kamala could run in New York instead and if you think that's a bad idea that's just because you let your delusional perfect fantasies be the enemy of ~~the good~~ , well, ~~the okay~~ , er... the...
I was always taught never to say anything about the dead unless it’s good. He’s dead. Good!
Moms Mabley
I think that was well crafted.
I'm sure there is more in there that i missed, but this is basically a "good riddance, finally" in terms that can be understood as polite.
She’s totally going to make another run at it. Still playing both sides.
"Kamala Harris y'all"

Polite words after someone kicks the bucket, whoever they may be, is politics, understandable.
That said, it does seem like she went out of her way to lay it on thick, didn't she? With a nasty synthetic aftertaste to it. She chose her words carefully and it looks like her kissing the boot of a fucking goddamned sick soulless monster.
Here's my obituary for cheney:
He shot a man in the face, then abused his tremendous privilege to avoid police questioning for 36 hours, after he'd had time to sober up, even as he got hundreds of thousands of people killed by kicking a hornet's nest in the Middle East, all for oil profit of his Halliburton and Clearwater buddies.
Rest not, but wallow in shit and eternal damnation,
Dick "Why Don't You Go FUCK YOURSELF?!!" Cheney
I think polite words are fine, but when she started praising him, that was simply inappropriate. Either she actually believes what she said or she was lying about the praise. Offering condolences to the family alone would have sufficed.
Kamala is and has always been a shit tier candidate.
Can we finally admit that her entire campaign amounted to gaslighting people into thinking she's remotely leftist?
Graham Platner said what Democrats should be saying- https://www.youtube.com/shorts/48HF6PyZaJM
Yeah, we're definitely better off with her not being president. Much happier with what we got instead.
That's standard politician that is.
Something in the world happens that does not involve them, or in any way require a comment from them.
Them: "oh I got to make a non statement about this".
This is why even democrats didn't want to vote for you Kamla, you need to do better than just being a corporate phony
