Kamala dancing at Pride in a rainbow vest

[quote]This gun-toting, supporter of bigots just goes from pander to pander.

Fixed.

She’ll throw us under the bus whenever it is convenient for her.

So would any other politician running for President, but she's from the San Fran area, I'm sure she's been supporting us a lot longer than many other people in this Primary.

She personally performed the wedding of Kris Perry and Sandy Stier, the female couple in the Hollingsworth suit. If you've ever watched the Case Against 8 documentary, there's great footage of her, in transit from Sacramento to San Francisco to do it, where she's on the phone with the LA County Clerk, who was confused about what to do with the male couple, Paul Katami and Jeff Zarrillo, when they showed up for a marriage license.

She firmly told the woman to shut the fuck up and do what she said.

She's not even African American.

Was her sugar daddy, Willie Brown, there?

Those dance moves suggest she is definitely, positively, without doubt NOT black.

[quote] She firmly told the woman to shut the fuck up and do what she said.

I'm sure that's the language she used.

I'm just blocking anyone suggesting she's not black, whether they're joking or not

Fake news bullshit.

r5 is technically correct, but if he means AA as in a descendent of a slave, then no she isn't. Black voters know this, just like they knew it for Obama. She still gets treated as a biracial woman when she walks down the street, so the experiences are in many ways the same. As Biden proves, black American's aren't hung up on the race of candidate, we want to know who has history of helping us. Same think can be said for every other group in America.

[quote]I'm sure that's the language she used.

Of course that's not what she actually said. It was, however, exactly what she conveyed.

Lol R9.

This thread has been good for adding people to my ignore list. Can tell Kamala is the new figure for attack of the moment, all these Trump juniors descending to repeat the right wing talking points.

Ugh, the election season trolling always the worst.

Any critique on her dance moves?

More from the same day:

Kamala tries hot sauce when seeing black people:

She reminds me so much of late life Garland there...

Was she listening to Frank Ocean and Lady Gaga along with Tupac in the 1980s?

I would be happy if she were to become our president. There is just something that feels put on as with most politicians. That's why someone like Pete appeals to me. I think he is the most, what you see is what you get. And what I see is impressive and seems sincere.

I panda bear suit would have been more appropriate.

R19, I didn’t like Pete, but now I do. And I used to like Kamala and now I don’t. Funny how that works.

I absolutely love the videos of the candidates putting on their Ebonics accents when addressing black crowds. Does that WORK? I’d like to believe people are smarter than that, and know when they’re being talked down to, but maybe not.

of course the usual suspects on DL are hating on a black politician and add in female that makes them hate harder.

disgusting bigots you don't own this board

Kamala is amazing and she's doing great in the polls now so go fuck yourselves as no one else wants to

I really like her when she lets her guard down - she otherwise comes across too stiff.

I guess to concern trolls anyone caring about a group of people to which they don't themselves belong is "pandering." That's a very...Putinesque point of view. Split everyone apart so the MAJORITY of our country can't throw out the orange traitor occupying the White House.

I have a suggestion for those who support Kamala Harris: show her the respect she's due and don't refer to her by her first name only, as if she were a child or a puppy.

r25 Erm, what now? We routinely use Hillary, Bernie, Pete, Tulsi, Beto, and Marianne (though that last one is split right down the middle).

It has nothing to do with respect; some words just flow better in people's minds and mouths and/or are more recognizable than the surnames, and that's why they prefer them. It's also about branding - "Kamala" packs a bigger punch than "Harris". It just does.

MARY r25!

This is really not a hill you should die on. "OMG, how dare people online refer to politicians by their first name!!"

It's the same shit as that fight around the terminology for concentration camps a few weeks ago. It's a distraction from debating actual issues, nothing else.

She dances like she wants to speak to the manager.

R28, That's just the over invested, nursing their dame fetish.

So, anyone who thinks she is not the best candidate or believes she's not what she presents is a racist anti-female? Very Trumpian, Harris suporters.

Kamala Harris has more baggage than an American Tourister factory.

Everyone has baggage when you dig deep enough. Even someone non-divisive like Inslee, I'm sure. And if you spin that baggage well enough, even the smallest things can become hugely embarrassing. Though all those rapes didn't stop Trump, so... who the fuck knows anymore.

Marianne Wiiliamson is a better dancer:

R33, Trump was already the nominee when his worst allegations surfaced. Kamala has a number of others to buck to even become the nominee. Do the Dems really want to risk running another woman candidate against Trump?

Kamala was caught parroting the now dominant and still false "Trans Women of Culluh started Stonewall!" bullshit this week. Ugh, can't straight people use Google or hire someone over twenty-five to look into this shut?

R31 that's because her supporters are mainly SJWs (far left),and the SJWs are the left's equivalent of the right's Tumpsters (far right). Both extremes think in black-and-white terms.

Russian bitch trolls came out dancing to the USSR anthem today. Next in the homophobic float will be QAnon fugtards. Be prepared, people.

Why do we all have to dance?

I hope that when she defeats Trump on election night 2020, she'll dance onstage to deliver her victory speech.

That geschmatt is HIDEOUS

There must be something terribly wrong with me. Biden, Warren and Petey all have more smarts, presence and charisma than this broad.

I will, of course, be voting for her if it comes down to her versus The Orange-utan, but geez . . .

r5, White people are fkin PRESSED. PRESSED. Her black Jamaican father immigrated to this country. Them black folks in Jamaica didn't row their boats across the Atlantic. They came there as SLAVES. FALL THE FUCK BACK. Her mom is a dark skin Indian and her dad is afro, like 98% of all Jamaicans.

R43, Aren't you aware that Kamala Harris' ancestors owned at least 100 slaves in Jamaica? It's been researched and their are valid records. Would Ms Harris be willing to pay their descendants reparations out of her own pocket?

WE love Kamala. So glad that she will be the next president of the U.S. She's a little conservative for my tastes, but Kamala is our Queen.

Yas Queen! Get it, girl!

At least it’s not as bad as Elaine and her thumb dance.

R37, you have her mixed up with Granny Warren, who will give away anything if you'll vote for her.

Will black people still vote for Kamala if she picks buttigieg as her VP? Homophobia is strong against him yet they want racial justice. Things that make you go hmmmm.

r44, I'm sure my Irish ancestors owned slaves too. Including my black descendants of which we all share the same surname. WTF is your point?

Of course black folks will vote for Kamala if Pete's the VP nominee, R49. Maybe you should ask white men and white women whether they'll stop being ridiculous and vote against Trump, unlike last time.

I know know about that R51, a huge percentage of the black vote stayed home the last time instead of voting for Hillary. They let Trump win. There was a huge drop in actual voting compared to when Obama ran for president. What good is it if they say they like Kamala but don't bother to vote like the did the last time because they hate Buttigieg for being gay.

Again, I will point out, there is no way Buttigieg did anything on the level of Trump and yet he ranked ZERO votes from the last survey from the black community. The only explanation is the vast amount of homophobia in the black community that still exists behind closed doors.

r52 The blacks who stayed home are less responsible for this mess than all those white women who actively voted for Trump when the first female candidate was on the ballot. Sorry but it's true.

[quote]Again, I will point out, there is no way Buttigieg did anything on the level of Trump and yet he ranked ZERO votes from the last survey from the black community. The only explanation is the vast amount of homophobia in the black community that still exists behind closed doors.

No, the only explanation is that he's a new name in the field. But he has the money to grow now.

There are eight times as many white as black people in the US and blacks voted 90-10 for Hillary, but "they let Trump win."

No, white people (especially white men) let Trump win. Mostly because they're racist fools

I wanted a Biden Harris ticket but that will never happen now.

Black immigrants are different from black Americans. Very different.

She can't dance for shit.

Sorry R53, Black people know who Mayor Pete is, stop making excuses for their homophobia. They give him zero votes because they are homophobes. Not the first time that happened. Again, I will remind you black people voted to take away gay marriage in California not too long ago before the supreme court overruled them.

Kamala has always supported gay rights. Also, she's always been black.

Too much swiftboat bullshit in this thread and elsewhere.

Tulsi is probably the only candidate who didn't support gay rights in recent history, so that's not exactly an achievement on Kamala's part.

Blocking the thread poster - shit stirring troll.

I'm black,gay, and attended an Ivy League school and don't really support Mayor Pete. I don't see why I should. He hasn't done anything worthy of my vote.

R62, What if he presented you hole?

[quote]The only explanation is the vast amount of homophobia in the black community that still exists behind closed doors.

Do you even know any white people?

R63 He's not attractive at all, so I wouldn't care.

I'm also a black gay man and I don't support Kamala. I don't see why I should. She hasn't done anything worthy of my vote.

R66 I don't support Kamala either. The Democratic party is in crisis.

Anyone else heard that Michelle Obama is being quietly, yet strongly, pressured to enter the race?

Mayor Willie Brown wrote in print that he thinks Kamala would return the vest to the store after she wore it. He's saying she is insincere, cheap, gross, and not all that gay-friendly. He knows that she's a snake in the grass with a record to run from.

Kamala should wear the rainbow vest to the next debate. Might as well try to shake something up; her campaign is flagging.
