    Sure, but his brain was soup by 2024. That’s kinda the main reason people are pissed with the Dems, because they hid this until Joe shit the bed for millions to see — during a debate, no less.

    Kamala’s campaign was mostly failed by bad advisors: Clinton staffers and James Carville types who hadn’t won an election in 20 years, they were the ones who made them triangulate, not break from Biden on policy, and even move to the “middle” by getting the Cheneys to tour with them. They retreated the “weird” attack and “we’re not going back” slogan, even as people kept using the former online and chanting the latter at rallies.

    They ratfucked her campaign about as hard as Trump is now ratfucking the country.

        You’re right. Harris would have likely won in 2016. Now everyone’s brain is soup from all the mental masturbation caused by the sloppification of media. The tabloids won, in a spiritual sense. Feels like we’re in a death cult, or at least that life is a lot cheaper. All the stable democracies on the verge of electing far right psychos, won’t be long before we start fighting each other like the good ol’ days — and the people will cheer for carnage just to feel something again.

      Its the people dude. People ratfucked the country. Not the candidates, not the advisors, not the campaigns, not Biden, not kamala, not DNC. They all did a decent job considering the circumstances they were in. They all reacted the best they could in an unprecedented scenario of a braindead zombie electorate. Its amazing people still can’t be bothered with this simple fact.
