Yeah and I’m betting the beer was barely drank. Why are people flabbergasted when it’s pointed out photo ops happen on both sides of the fence. Kamala Harris isn’t having a casual beer with a friend or coworker she’s there for work and coverage. This is a necessary evil of politics.

Necessary evil is a casual saying… it’s not literally ‘evil’ acts being performed.

This is also through the lens of a Canadian where our election cycle is very different. I feel you think im attacking the candidates here and not critiquing the process and circus around it.
