fukk Joe and the democrats and I voted for Kamala. They knew Biden was cooked years ago. Kamala was a shyt candidate that literally had 3 months to turn things around for the Democratic Party. If anyone is to blame it’s the gatekeepers of the Democratic Party that decided at the 11th hour to make a change. As far as I’m concerned they were complicit in getting Trump elected.
Also this election was a clear rejection of democrats/ “liberals”. Democrats got washed at every level that matters besides outliers here and there.
I don't think kamala was that bad, she washed Trump in their debate to the point where he refused to do it again. Her economic plan made sense, she spoke well, campaigned hard and honestly, considering how little time she had for this campaign she did not do all that badly (third most votes ever for a candidate).
Latino men breaking for Trump and Gen Z males moving more conervative (and white women staying on code and voting for their race) sunk her. I don't think any dem candidate would have done better (who did we have? Newsom? Buttigieg? who else?)
We figured that the Roe v Wade issue and Trump's racism would help with Latinos and women and that turned out to not be the case. I do agree with you that she probably would not have won a primary, but I don't think we had an answer for Trump in this election cycle.
Yes Trump looked like an ass with his "their eating the dogs and cats" statement. He also looked like someone who didn't prepare for the debate. Kamala appeared as a candidate who was completely scripted and side-stepped questions. I seriously doubt there were undecided voters who looked at the debate and said Harris "convinced" him/her to vote Harris. There were no winners.
