          The Biden Administration did, she didn’t. She had a bunch of billionaire Tech Bros telling her to drop Lena Khan if she got elected. We know exactly where she was headed.

              Well far be it for me to say you’re wrong, but maybe uncertainty isn’t the best way to sell yourself as a candidate then. Maybe leaving breadcrumbs that lead to doubt but not actually saying things out right doesn’t engender confidence. Who knows? Except we kind of do cuz she just got her ass kicked.

                I mean if uncertainty was the measure her opponent is way more uncertain. Cherry picking one thing and saying it was what caused everything is not something im going to believe. I mean look. Its pretty obvious from the result that I am by no way an example of the typical american voter. All I know is I do the best I can for myself, and my family, and my community, and my nation, and my planet. I voted for the better option and will in future in the hopes of getting the better option. I have been fine reaping with what I sow but not so happy to reap what others have sown but I dunno maybe they don’t like the flavor of what I sow.

                I find this type of argument as unreasonable. When there is fud left and right the expectation that the public figure can address each and every one individually is ludicrous. That being said I think she was stringing along a few wealthy folks there as she was very non commital. You never really know but based on her track record I think she would have mostly continued what biden had started and likely any changes would be improvements.

          Monopoly busting is good for the other corporations. Just because a company does anti-consunmer behavior doesn’t mean they aren’t also get screwed by another company’s anti-consumer behaviors.
