    We take everything aside, I sincerely want to ask her what’s her playbook? She can be as right-wing as she wants, but corporations will STILL see her as “the enemy” and will band together to make life worse for poor people as a form of protest. What is her strategy? because porky didn’t play nice during Biden’s term and won’t play nice during her term.

      but corporations will STILL see her as “the enemy” and will band together to make life worse for poor people as a form of protest.

      Once she’s in (or trump, really) Porky will continue to complain vocally about anything left of anarcho-capitalism. The time they’ve already spent controlling info and framing all issues rightward has been the engine behind America’s supposedly “center-right” constituency.

      Not that ya don’t already know this but there’s no new strat here, her strategy is the same as the DNCs, to set heavily means-tested policies juuuuuuust to the left of center and then capitulate rightward ad-infinitum. Then just over 3 years into her term she’ll start talking bout how those promises Biden she made won’t come unless she’s reelected in a blue wave.

      The only thing im not sure of is who the Dems and media will elevate to boss baddie once trump is grifting the worms. Is DeSantis enough of a R bugaboo to recreate another election to “save democracy”?
