Kamala Harris's Loss Was An Overwhelming Success For Democrats

[Independent thinker]

They have 4 long, long years to figure out a way to try and destroy Trump again.

One thing is for sure, if the DNC wins the House there will be more impeachments and stupidity.

Yup. Trump will be the first president in history to ever have been impeached 10 times and not removed from office 10 times.

To be fair, they didn't have anything else they could run on.

And it was effective. The media did it's bit with the Russia bullshit story for 3 years and then the pandemic. People really just wanted shit to be "normal" to stop all the crazy. Too bad everyone was lying.

? If he wanted to a national law on abortion why don't we have one? The Democrats held both houses of Congress and the Presidency? What stopped him? The onus to pass that law didnt happen once R v W was overturned? Do you want to list all things in Trumps platform? Every politician has a list of "things" but the primary thing the Biden campaigned ran on was just not being Trump. A return to normalcy, the adults back in the room. etc. etc. It was effective and why he won. The problem it that's not what happened and one of the reasons Kamala who couldnt extricate herself from Biden lost.

He didn't get much of anything done beyond the green energy stuff, but that doesn't change that he had a platform and she did not.

Her "platform" was the sam as Biden's which was a large part of the problem. Her inability to articulate that platform also didnt help.

I just loved it when Biden was elected

We went from, every Covid death is Trump's fault, to Biden saying the pandemic was over, even though far more died from Covid under his watch.

Hilarious.

She wasn't going to be another Joe Biden yet she couldn't think of anything she'd do different isn't a platform. Fundamentally, the problem she faced was that in 2020, Biden assured us he would be a one term president and then he screwed the democrats by announcing a second run, and then bowing out at the 11th hour crippling any chance Harris or any other democrat would ever have had a successful campaign. The best assessment is still Obama's comment years ago to never underestimate Joe's ability to f things up.

I'll agree that Harris doesnt have solid political/moral values. Neither does Trump for that matter. That said she definitely had a platform. She adopted the one voted on by the DNC and approved by the Biden campaign. Biden didnt bow out he was forced out. Not sure which alternate fantasy universe you live in but Joe didn't go willingly, and the DNC, media talking heads and Harris 100% perpetrated the LIE that Joe wasnt cognitively impaired. Harris doesnt get a pass for the abbreviated timeline she's as much to blame for it as anyone. She was certainly willing to go along with the lie that Joe was "sharp as a tack" and "running circles around his staff behind closed doors" which was obviously complete and utter bullshit. Joe has his part in it but he's certainly not carrying even the majority of the burden.

Dems lost this election because the voting public has clearly seen, and suffered from, the shitty shitty policies and ideas they espouse


It really is that simple.

Yes, it is.
