  • I don’t see how your position makes sense. Not only was there literally a $1.4bn dollar campaign promoting her over the last few months, she also dictated the current direction of the DNC based on her campaign policies and promises. She’s VP to a government whose policies she largely supported in her campaign. There hasn’t been any broad renouncement of her.

    Besides Biden, who has anywhere close to her power, both in the party and in the public eye? She should be using all of the focus to promote and support new & fresh Democrats. You can’t seriously try to tell me she has less power than Bernie.














  • No. Humans aren’t deterministic machines that perfectly weigh available information and rationally decide on the best course of action. It’s not enough to have better policies, you also have to appeal to your voters emotionally.

    Harris didn’t do this, she instead decided to effectively spit into her voters faces by moving right on several issues while not giving hope that current issues will be resolved. People are hurting financially - one candidate said “I’ll fix it”, while the other said “there is no issue, nothing will change”.

    It doesn’t matter that her policies were better. She could have campaigned differently and gotten far more votes. It’s as much her fault as it is the voters.
