A lot of people are both pushing Harris on this issue, and warning that Trump would be far worse.
A lot of us who are worried about Trump getting elected, ie. me who is disabled and bedridden, if I lose Social Security I die, also don’t have the capacity to push Harris much as those who would suffer the most under a Trump term, tend to be the most vulnerable people in society.
No, you're not, unless you're a billionaire. Kamala doesn't even have policy positions on her website. It's just a short bio and a donation portal.
By pushing Harris I mean going out and protesting etc.
Protesting only works because it comes with an implicit threat. In this case the threat is "you will lose the election if you don't listen."
