Ciao poet, you now have 4 votes.
First off kudos to you for posting a 9-letter 2D acrostic. That alone is a unique feat.
I love the artwork, it should be the official posters for the demos.
Biden in his speech said he was standing down for the good of Democracy yet Harris skipped the primaries and became the Democratic nominee.
Democracy my foot. Obama is the one running the show.
Some will vote for Harris just not to vote for Trump.
I don't care a hoot if she is a woman or black .. I care about results and Harris did not deliver as vice president. She is a walking disaster and speaks in circles.
This transgender agenda of theirs is madness and those who oppose the woke are being "attacked".
You mention many valid points that need to be addressed but that many Democratic voters want to pretend aren't important.

Thank you Tempeste for this great review and the generous 6th star. Yep, the rise of Harris from one of the most unpopular and useless VPs to a god-like media personality is the one of the most outrageous stunts ever pulled off by the media. 🦍

Great job with the acrostic. I am not sure I've seen this type before. Good luck in the contest. Excellent word choices. Kamala might have difficulty understanding some of them. Oh, the irony. This deserves a six for no other reason than the vocabulary. The Democrats want to impose higher taxes on the rich. Do they forget those very rich Hollywood types and woke billionaires are their biggest contributors? With higher taxes, they may not be so inclined to donate. Love the line about the DEI elitists manhunting outside caves. judi

Thank you very much Judi. I host these acrostic contests every few months and they can be a doozy to write, and you're more than welcome to join the next one. I tried to make the words in this one simpler than usual, haha.
You raise a good point about taxation. What I didn't mention in this piece (no "I"s for inflation) is how it's the biggest, sneakiest tax of all. The working poor in particular have been destroyed by the massive regressive taxes on food and fuel. Economists say a country can survive high regulation, high taxes, or high social spending but it cannot thrive with all three. 🦍

Lol. Amen. Wow. I attempt these 2-D things but rarely have luck having them make sense. Excellent job here. friend. Yep, we're in serious trouble if she gets in. Loved the last one the most. Best of luck in the contest.

They are a good challenge to write and it's kinda luck of the draw which words are hard or easy. There's a chance Harris will damage her own party so much (likely, already has) that it will be a net good, but Trump has so purged the Republican Party of ideological conservatism that it's hard to say who would be competitive enough in 2028 to unseat an incumbent Stalinist, when the voting populace is as dumb as it is right now. What can we do? Voting for Trump as a proxy for Harambe is looking more palatable by the day. Guess to be fair I should now do a 2D on the Repubs but they are out of power right now, and not the bigger danger. Thanks DS for this killer review -- much appreciated. 🦍

This seems like a good candidate for the contest. The structure seems good, and subject matter interresting. Good job and good luck. Have a blessed day

Comment from Julie Helms
Wow, you did 9 letters! You covered a lot of topics in this fine acrostic. A challenging feat done exceedingly well. Of course, now you've guaranteed half the voters won't vote for you just on principle...
Brilliant job!

Thanks! Yeah I'll make a few enemies probably, but that's alright. The Republican Party is already torpedoed (there's another entry in here that did a really great job attacking Trump) but not enough people are attacking Democrats properly for their exploitation of the underclass and Animal Farm-like abandonment all their own ideals. As long as I become a better writer from participating, it's worth it!
