Tweety: Harris should stress she's 'not a member of the squad'

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Pundit Chris Matthews is encouraging Vice President Harris to distance herself from the policies of the liberal wing of the Democratic Party as she runs for president this fall.

Matthews, during an appearance on MSNBC early Monday, said Harris should lean into her personal story, saying “she has a chance to say, ‘Here’s who I am. I am a daughter of an Indian immigrant, a Jamaican immigrant, and I had a tiger mother. And I went to Howard.'”

“Why did you decide to go to Howard, why don’t you identify with the African American history in this country? People want to know,” Matthews added.

Harris, Matthews said, should also make it clear that she is “not a member of the ‘squad,'” a reference to a group of liberal House lawmakers including Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.).

1. agreed... they're already starting to use the "California slur"

[FHRRK]

11. The CA slur always cracks me up when coming from the Repukes

Now I did move to SoCal right out of college so obviously biased. But here is the rub, coming up on 40 years in CA, so getting close to retirement. A few months ago I ran the delta of, what if I took every damn cent I put into 401k's and bought CA property. Conservatively, I would have had at least 2.5x the amount of money for retirement. So CA housing is one of the best examples (positive) for free market capitalism.

Newsom does a good job of slapping people around on the CA slurs, Kamala has a basic template to use.

19. Wouldn't that enable MAGA slur use that they'll just use anyway no matter what we do?

[WarGamer]

21. Believe it or not... some parts of the country are really anti-California

I've been mostly here in CA since 1978...

Love it. I'm a homeowner and worked most of my career here.

But I've traveled a lot and have been told directly by management at corporate offices across the country (My former employer has around 10 US locations) to make sure I don't have CA license plates on my car if I've driven there...

Across the Mid-West and into the Deep South... not a lot of fondness for Californians.

And now that I think about it... the Pac Northwest isn't fond of us either. I spent a year outside of Seattle babysitting a production facility and people blamed Californians for the real estate crisis and home pricing.

2. The LAST person I want to hear from about Kamala

is tweety. Luckily he doesn't have a platform to trash her like he did with Hillary.

[Elessar Zappa]

3. Why would anyone think she's in the squad?

Matthews doesn’t have a clue.

[uponit7771]

20. Her skin is brown and MAGA will ascribe her to anything brown and negative they can. Still ignore him, we shouldn't ...

... enable MAGA slurs but lean into them

[LiberalFighter]

4. Matthews should STFU

[Electrolite]

17. Exactly. I thought he was done.

What a dipshit.

[hlthe2b]

5. Oh, come on Tweety. Does the media have zero responsibility to dispel lies? And what if she names Shapiro

as her VP candidate, is he now obligated to explain every aspect of his Judaism and whether/why he does/does not agree with every aspect as practiced in the US and Israel? Do we hook him up to a lie detector, just to be sure?

[Bev54]

6. The "squad" is in the house, Kamala never served in the house, she came from the senate

Why the hell would she even bring it up?

[blm]

7. That's stupid to go there.

[Cha]

8. Good Gawd.. VP is Not A Congresswoman in the House of Reps!

And, I don't know about the rest of the Squad but AOC has been very supporting Prs Biden and now Kamala.

[aeromanKC]

9. Whatever. I don't care. Just get elected!!

[Marcus IM]

10. Tweety should crawl back under a rock. n/t

[Sky Jewels]

12. Oh, he's still alive?

What a shame.

[LeftInTX]

13. What???

[DFab420]

14. Who gives a crap with he thinks about anything?

[yardwork]

15. Shut up, tweety.

Don't you have to go dust your W memorabilia or something?

[Xavier Breath]

16. Every time I start to think about missing him he reminds me why I shouldn't. n/t

[SocialDemocrat61]

18. Stopped listening to him

a very long time ago.

[ViewObsessed]

22. AOC is a national treasure!
