It would be a tremendous loss in social credit though.

Some will say Kamala was a bad choice for the Dems because Tulsi 'destroyed' here, but that was just with the one primary debate and it's not like Tulsi ever got any sort of popularity herself. Kamala is mostly unpopular with blacks who vote along racial lines anyway and wouldn't be changing their votes to Trump just because she's the VP nominee. She's also been going through some sort of coaching regarding her body language for the past few months and isn't nearly as stiff as she once was. Which sorta pisses me off as I forgot to place some bets on her getting the VP nomination.
Kamala is someone that'll help appeal to whites who are the main swing voter demographic for the Democrats. Only other non-obnoxious VP they could have chosen was Buttigieg, but that might've turned off people due to his being gay.

He should have just picked Michelle or Oprah.

They don't have to change their votes to Trump. She's just another reason for more of them to stay home than would have done so if the choice were someone else.

If it's to gain back white voters that they alienated in 2016 then it would make sense that Harris was picked. They also still arrogantly believe that they have the Black and Latino voted secured.

It is secured, but enthusiasm is low.

I hope Trump finds out about this.

There's still a few of us in America who haven't knuckled under. In fact, I'd guess most of the laity hasn't, we just only have one conservative seminary left and most of the grads go Wesleyan or non-denominational. The Africans and Asians still haven't given in either.
I know it wasn't, because I remember the infiltration creeping in back in the 90s, but it just feels like it flipped so damn fast. I will admit being a traditionalist in the Methodist church kinda sucks. You have progressive heretics on one side and shallow megachurchdom on the other.

See, thing is, I never buy that. If there were an actual antichrist running around, no one would guess. It's like the Second Coming, Christ said he was coming back like a thief in the night. If you try and determine the date, you're wrong. Obama wasn't one, Trump's not one, if he's around, he's someone no one will ever think of as one.

The point I am making is according to the bible there will be a time Christian's will be persecuted and the Christian faith will be in irreversible decline. Supposedly that's the sign of the end times. Or an end of an era. Take your pick.

I know for a fact that most of the members of my Catholic parish (and just a whole continuum of more orthodox Catholics) are generally more conservative in their political stances, mainly because of the issues of abortion, sex workers and all the LGBT shit the left has been pushing for years now. They won't say it but I know the vast majority of my diocese is voting for Trump (or at least not voting for Biden). It's kinda obvious that you should vote for the candidate whose policies are more in line with your faith at the risk of basically being complicit in allowing sin to fester in society at large, even (almost especially) if the one that is not preaching the message of degeneracy is a cafeteria Catholic.

Yes, to an extent, but it's not the first time Christendom's had a rough patch. And it's a pretty weak persecution in the West. No one's even been lit on fire yet, I don't even know if we've hit French Revolution cult of reason levels of shit yet. Every now and then we need to be shaken up from our complacency. We become comfortable and weak. We start to love the World more than we should. Last time this really happened, a monk wanted to have a debate about some issues he'd noticed in the Church.
I'm not saying your wrong, just more the end of an era. I just think we're do for another round of housecleaning and that isn't always fun.

Are they wrong for thinking the black vote is secured? Many treat it as being a race traitor if you dare think of supporting Trump.
Democrats, and really most political strategists, have noticed the phenomena of how for Democrats the main swing voter demographic is whites versus with Republicans it's Latinos. It's why it was as weird as it was to Republicans that Trump went against illegal immigration in 2016 since they saw that as going against a major potential voting base. The Latino vote got proven more complex or at least different which fucked with a lot of these strategists' predictions, but considering Democrats haven't changed their general strategies or political positions I don't think it's unreasonable they're imagining the voting demographic groups to be the same as a few years ago.
In which case, the black vote is generally secure, and the main swing group is white voters. Kamala doesn't appeal to blacks who may have more sway in the primaries due to virtue signalling lunatics, yet when you get into the general someone like Kamala having a history of being the tough attorney general or whatever makes her more appealing to white voters who are wanting someone tough on crime at a time of riots. It won't work of course, seeing as Trump as president has been offering up the national guard to anyone that wants to quiet riots, but I think it still helps explain the logic of the Democrats picking her as VP.

Oh boy! Let's have a religious war right now over interpretations of the antichrist!
Somewhat more seriously (I am a drunken robot after all), I have seen a Catholic point out that per some verses, there are multiple antichrists in the world - thus why he loves to constantly call Trump "a dime-store antichrist."

Just what I wanted. End times spats are more fun than butting heads with Reformed/Calvinists. Great people to have at your back, but Methodists are something like the arch-nemesis and if the argument goes poorly for them, they do have a tendency to burn people at the stake.
Catholic guy isn't technically wrong, there is a strain of thought that there isn't one specific antichrist, it's more like an archetype that pops up. Obama's a better example than Trump, but neither really fit. Trump's not looking to be worshipped, Obama is, but he's just a narcissist and an empty suit. He just wants the asspats, I assume something about daddy issues.

I wonder how many times she has called him Cheeto Dick or any number of even shittier, more childish nicknames.
