Really starting to miss when you were banned from more things. Like this is a super long reach into irrelevance even for you.

It's a political candidate who is still in the race. How is this a reach? Did you watch the interview?

I didn't, and won't, because she's just as irrelevant now as she was in the last election.

Orb Mom makes some good points. It's an interview on ABC News.

Dude, self help book lady from the 90s who has never held any office, never done anything remotely useful politically, and has literally dropped out of this race twice already has nothing useful to contribute.

Oh wait. That's why she speaks to you, isn't it. That sense of "making your voice heard" even though neither of you has anything useful to say.

She's a registered Democrat. Does her voice not matter?

From the interview:

"I think the Democratic leadership completely underestimates the level of disgust that Americans are feeling due to their cowardice, due to their hypocrisy. You know, the issue is not just crisis; it's crisis management. And they are failing at crisis management," Williamson told Phillips.

"If [Biden] doesn't want to give up the delegates, he doesn't have to. It's called an intervention. It's called Hakeem Jeffries and Senator Schumer and whomever else walking into a room with the president, with the First Lady, with Hunter – whomever – and saying, this has got to stop. You are risking our victory in November," Williamson said.

Where is she wrong?

In the sense of determining election results, her voice does not statistically matter. No one with half a brain takes her seriously enough to listen to anything she says.

She's wrong in thinking (and I use the term generously) that Jeffries, Schumer, or "whomever" can have an intervention with the POTUS like he's an addict on a bender. She'd probably know how ridiculous that sounds if she'd ever, you know, done anything useful politically.

If Biden is not replaced, Trump will win. Period. You know I've been saying it for months now.

Oh so you're shifting away from the entirety of this article and anything dipshit the woo-woo self-help author says to...what, exactly? Restating your delusion that if you just complain loudly enough and stupidly enough on a website barely anyone reads, that somehow that'll make entrenched power step aside for...well, I'm sure you'll all think of a name later?

Did you suddenly realize that sinking effort into defending this irrelevant dipshit might make others realize how dumb and likely dishonest your opinion is? Yeah bit late there.

Grow the fuck up. Replacing Biden happens if Biden is dead. Either he wins now or it's over. Maybe consider focusing on the fight that actually exists instead of the one that was never a real possibility except in delusional peoples' heads.

Or keep trying to divide the democratic base like you're doing here. I assume that's your real goal, and also why you can't manage to make any arguments that hold water.

Williamson has some great policies including reparations and universal healthcare but you won't listen to her ideas anyways.

Replacing Biden happens if Biden is dead. Either he wins now or it’s over.

So that's it? Trump wins because of Biden's ego and refusal to step aside? Got it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

She has nothing, because she is irrelevant. If she actually cared about those things, she'd run for a position commensurate with her experience, which again, is nothing.

Your take is pointlessly nihilistic and divorced entirely from reality, so I guess you're consistent there at least.

You really hate Orb Mom huh? Sheesh. I would share some clips with you of her ideas but you refuse to hear it so...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Waste as much of your time as you like. Or just wait 'til dipshit announces that she's dropping out for the third time and post that. Maybe she'll stick with it.
