Imagine Kamala launching a shitcoin then rugpulling people. These people would probably ask for her head. But then she would never do that nor people buying the shitcoin since they don’t follow a cult leader and are not* dumbasses

Imagine if Kamala had been married 3 times with kids from all 3 different fathers?

u/Hamonwrysangwich 1d ago

She didn't, and MAGA referred to she and Biden as "Joe and the Hoe" anyway.

u/MadRaymer 1d ago

They didn't stop there. They were calling her Heels-up Harris, BJ queen, and a few other things I don't even feel comfortable typing out. There's zero evidence she "slept her way to the top" yet they believe it, because in the MAGA mind there's simply no other way a woman could achieve a position of power.

I think sometimes we forget that in addition to how openly racist much of America is, perhaps even more of it is openly sexist. There's no way to test this theory, but I think if Trump's 2024 opponent had been a black man with exactly the same qualifications Harris had, that opponent would have won (though probably just barely).

Its exactly this. MAGA women saying that she slept her way up is COPE because that's what they all had to do. I feel bad for them as fellow humans but holy shit yall fucked my country up.

u/EnfantTerrible68 1d ago

Oh, we women are well aware of that, unfortunately.

Everyone knows the OG throat goat was Nancy Reagan.

u/Papayaslice636 1d ago

Also the argument that women sleep their way to the top never made sense to me. If they could get to the highest positions of society, government, business, etc just by sucking and fucking a few guys (or a lot of guys) then women would be in charge of literally everything by now.

u/ELLinversionista 19h ago

Logic doesn’t work with these people. They just couldn’t comprehend that women could be smart and hold positions of power so they come up with these shit

u/Sorge74 1d ago

Not only did she sleep her way to the top, but she impressively did it while being ugly and maybe a biological man. (Hate it here, I don't think this)

u/lonnie123 1d ago

I think there was something about her having a relationship with someone in the government while she was a prosecutor?? … but her role in politics was an elected role in CA so I’m not really sure sure how that helps get her votes anyway

2

u/Zalophusdvm 1d ago

For full context it wasn’t just “someone in government.”

https://www.reuters.com/article/world/fact-check-kamala-harrisandwillie-brownhad-a-relationshipover-adecadeafte-idUSKBN26Y2RJ/

But you’re right, she still had to get elected in her own right and they only dated briefly 30 years ago…it certainly wasn’t a case of “sleeping her way to the top.”

2

u/Hopsblues 1d ago

Michelle received similar treatment.

2

u/Zalophusdvm 1d ago

So, the insidious nature of this crap is that it is actually based on a kernel of truth.

Early in her career in public service KH DID date a much older VERY powerful, at the time, man in local San Francisco (where she started) and CA politics. Ie Willie Brown

https://www.reuters.com/article/world/fact-check-kamala-harrisandwillie-brownhad-a-relationshipover-adecadeafte-idUSKBN26Y2RJ/

But, that was 30 years ago now. Even if we assume the worst and WB did help KH because of their relationship….that’s AT WORST, sleeping your way to the starting line…not the top. And, as you say, there’s absolutely no evidence for even THAT being true.

But she did date him…so it’s easy to spin people’s imagination up from there and feed them racist and misogynistic propaganda.

u/ELLinversionista 1d ago

Trump is nowhere near the textbook morally good person. Also, calling someone a hoe shows exactly how these people treat women. Like I wouldn’t use that even for sex workers since it is such a demeaning word. Oh let’s not forget these people are protecting women’s sports. The Hypocrisy and Idiocy go hand in hand with these people.

2

u/Corona-walrus 1d ago

Trump is actually the antichrist. Have you seen or heard that one yet? It's really quite compelling. He's the mortal incarnation of the explicit type of person we've been warned against following

3

u/EnfantTerrible68 1d ago

It’s a definite possibility 

2

u/GodSama 1d ago

And you have to ask yourself the moral standing of all the churches who support him.

u/apathy420 1d ago

I tend to believe these people peaked in high school, because that is some shit angsty high schoolers would spout off. Having no real understanding of how the real world works but think they do, and are pissed off about everything.

2

u/Hamonwrysangwich 23h ago

I don't know if I'd call it "peaked", more like their emotional development stopped at an early age. I went to school with a lot of these kind of people, and honestly if I hadn't left and gone to college there's a good chance I'd be like them, too. If you live in a mostly homogeneous small town for all of your life, that echo chamber becomes mighty loud.

u/KaiserJustice 1d ago

Some who’s other parent was an immigrant who wasn’t a US citizen yet

2

u/EnfantTerrible68 1d ago

Just like tRump?

u/Notsurehowtoreact 1d ago

They straight up gave her shit for being "just a step-mother." They are ghouls. 

3

u/EnfantTerrible68 1d ago

Isn’t Melania also a step mother?

4

u/Notsurehowtoreact 1d ago

Marla Maples was too. 

6

u/BabyStingrayJesus 1d ago

And one of those kids was conceived via extramarital affair.

2

u/EnfantTerrible68 1d ago

And he wanted to have her aborted 

4

u/Jrylryll 1d ago

She dated someone 30 years ago and they can’t get over it.

2

u/3-DMan 22h ago

And repeatedly "joked" about dating her son

u/MoonBatsRule 22h ago

I have had people tell me with a serious face that there is no way that Trump is grifting because he already is a billionaire, so he doesn't need the money.

2

u/ELLinversionista 19h ago

Those people are stupid. Like it would be such a rare instance if a billionaire stopped trying to make more money. Like that’s how they became one in the first place. Human beings are never satisfied and never happy. You could be a billionaire and still envy the other super billionaire.

u/RightClickSaveWorld 22h ago edited 22h ago

They blamed her for tricking people into thinking they were going to get a Beyonce concert. I've heard Centrists upset about that. Even though no such insinuation or expectation that a concert was happening.

2

u/ColoRadBro69 1d ago

Kamala Harris is a serious person.  You expect things like ethics from her, a crypto scam would be frowned upon. 

Donald Trump isn't a serious person. The world holds him to a lower standard because he's a lower person. 

I'm not saying it's fair, I'm saying it's what's going on.

u/ELLinversionista 1d ago

Trump not being a serious person and he’s the president? Most of the USA being fine with a clown as president shows how “unserious” these voters are
