  3. Good its time for Harris to prosecute Trump on the national stage.

  5. But what about Manchin? Won’t anyone think about him? /s

  6. Damn. I thought I read it would take her until Wednesday or something? And they’ve raised $250 million ~36 hours. Insane.

    Where I’m getting the $250 million number from: https://www.cnbc.com/2024/07/22/live-updates-harris-democrats-biden-drops-out-trump-campaign.html

    And some more context on it from the article:

    > In the hours since President Joe Biden announced that he would end his teetering reelection campaign, Harris and the Democratic party have pulled in roughly $250 million in online donations and major donor commitments. … It is not clear yet how much of this money was given to House and Senate campaigns and how much went to the former Biden campaign, rebranded overnight as the Harris for President campaign.

    So $250 million total in donations + commitments, but it could be split between Senate, House, and the Harris campaign.

  8. The transition was picture perfect, they couldn’t have done any better. Biden is a real class act and will go down in history as one of the greatest presidents this country has had.

  9. That’s one for the history books. VP announcement incoming

  10. Get a good VP and let Trump destroy his chances by losing all control of his tirades.
    Mark my words, he’ll go full racist, misogynistic prick if Kamala allows it to happen. Poke the fat orange cheeseball, step back and watch the magic happen.

  11. I would have to hear the “coronation” nonsense for a few days now! Better make a drinking game out of it.

    The funniest thing is that Trump got shot (so much for being pro-gun rights ) but the media seems to have forgotten all about that. His ear wound hasn’t even healed yet. That must hurt lol.

  13. This has to be a record plus the earth shattering amount of small donations received in less than 2 days!

  14. There is no adequate way to describe my relief that the party has unified behind a single candidate. I was so worried about fracture and disarray and instead I feel both relaxed and excited!

  15. In other side news her book sales is up 60,378% in the last 24 hours. So its not just her campaign funds exploding but her bank account as well.

  18. Good lord, the Democrats have turned their horses about and are now collectively charging across the landscape, swords raised, like this is Minas Tirith or someshit. It’s like a logjam is cleared at last.

  21. My Son in law is 35. He is so apolitical it makes me crazy. He went down this morning and signed up to volunteer for Harris and donated some of his hard earned cash. Something is seriously going on.

  22. I don’t think anyone is seeing this as a coronation. I don’t think Democrats need to be careful anymore. It’s time to fully embrace Harris and run the roll call!

  23. She’s the woman who’s going to defeat Donald “Russian asset” Trump. Vote BLUE!

  25. My prayers (I’m not religious) about not seeing stupid Orange Methuselah in the news every headline have been answered. Thank you Kamala Harris.

  27. I think a lot of people just want someone under 65 and who’s cognitive abilities we’re not concerned about.

  29. Well that escalated quickly… Sweet ..

    Federal prosecutor versus a convicted felon and rapist.

    Easy choice

  30. Already felt like a fait accompli, but this much support, this fast feels meaningful

  31. FOR FRODO!

    But seriously good shit on Dems for getting their shit together

  32. The insane amount of enthusiasm that I’ve seen for her from democratic politicians and people on social media since yesterday is absolutely insane. The energy surrounding this is so exciting.

  33. I’m incredibly optimistic for November in a way I wasn’t in 2020. Polling is going to be volatile for a couple weeks as this new landscape is digested by normies; but, I think we have a chance to achieve the kind of victories necessary to address some big issues in the US and prove to voters that elections can bring meaningful and positive outcomes. We can’t suffer another 4 years of maintaining the status quo.

  34. With Joe Biden she United the Democratic Party behind her candidacy in 24 hours.

  35. How do I donate in a way I know it goes directly to her campaign and not to some third party promising to give her a cut? Never donated before. Gonna donate 200 a
    Month until Election Day. Can’t really afford it but also can’t afford not to.

    Gonna cancel psn and Xbox live and Hulu for a while and use my my money for something good for once.

  36. lol. So that took less than two days to straighten out.

    Got a trumper buddy. He was already declaring victory because it was too close to the election to run a campaign. He’s been quiet the in the last day.

  37. This engine is in full power mode with no fucks given to worry about.

    This is honestly starting to feel like the Obama Hope train. Bring it home Kamala.
