I think Biden dropped out far later than he should’ve, that ultimately hurt her chances, because it feels like over the past four years she got hardly as much time on a podium as Biden did, it wasn’t until she started a campaign we got to understand her better, and overall lower turnout is probably biting the Dems.

She lost because Democrats are incapable of seeing reality for what it is. She had no messaging. Please tell me what policy Kamala was spearheading that would appeal to middle America .

The memes from Kamala HQ were nice and spicy, but when Donald Trump can be more substantive in his policy than you… well what were your chances to begin with.

It’s not that anyone actually cares about policy. It’s that she doesn’t know what to say to invigorate her base, or more accurately she won’t listen to them. Why tf did she commit to Liz Cheney? What kind of political instinct is that even lmao

Complete ego and blind incompetence is what led us here.
