Harris is by nature a pragmatist and cautious, which doesn't make a bad leader, but when combined with the advice of those out of touch aides...you get what we saw. If she had, from the moment she was nominated, played it way less safe, fukk the rules, fukk the old playbook, we are going do things different in this country and overseas....there's a window there.
That moment on July 22 felt transformative, but by September, the messaging had gotten very watered down. It was a lot like Hillary's 2016. Very insular. Lots of memes and shyt. She didn't talk like someone who wanted to change the world/the country.
A) she is not really that person, which is ok, but
B) her staffers and advisors could not make her sound like that person, because they aren't either
which is not surmountable.
