Will Ed Kowalczyk be supporting Kamala Harris? Options

[dangum]

In previous presidential elections Ed Kowalczyk has supported Barack Obama and Joe Biden by performing at Democratic Party public events. Do you think the this will continue in 2024 for Kamala Harris?

Chad Gracey's political stance is on the opposite side. Do you think this is counting against Chad being invited back into Live?

Do you think it's a good idea that Ed/Live support any particular candidate? Can it do more harm than good?

I'd be interested to know how you rationalise / explain away Trump's insanely long list of - let's be polite - indiscretions, many of which individually would've ended any other politician's career. Somehow, as a mind blowing collective, it's still not enough to convince many Trump supporters that there's even the slightest thing wrong with him. Is it all just hand waving and notions of the lamestream media etc? Do you have any sense of irony when you tell others they're burying their heads in the sand?

I'm more concerned about the current administration's insanely long list of indiscretions. Also, there's more to the opposition to the current administration than just "brain dead Trumpers blindly swallowing Trumpisms whole." I mean, when "trusted news sources" are bashing the crap out of one side of ______ and not showing any impartiality whatsoever maybe they shouldn't be so trusted?

Politicians have all had their say, but they're still the ones we elect to provide direction to the country (in the US at least) because a lot of people (most?) don't have the aptitude or ego for the job. Democrats and Republicans... both sides think they are always right. It makes zero sense to let one side or the other have unfettered authority and power from now on just because they think they're right.

The Democrats have had the last four years to run this country into the ground with bad policies in regards to our border, economy, embarassing foreign military presence (or lack thereof), etc etc. Maybe if/when the Republicans regain some power in Washington it'll be 50 different shades of the same thing, but we have to keep ebbing and flowing until we get it right. Because no one side has a monopoly on purity, virtue, or truth.

Trump may not be the "hero" we deserve, but the one we need. Or maybe it's the other way around. But Kamala Harris is neither, imo. She's an integral part of the current problem and is in no way part of the solution.

Anyway, that's all I have to say about it. If people will keep it semi-cordial and want to continue the political talk with me then my DMs are open. Otherwise I'm done with the politics.
