Or maybe they would have voted for a woman who had a plan, or a policy, or who could answer questions, hold a press conference, speak to real people, sell a dream, inspire working Americans........
The neck on someone using all those things as a factor that’s worked against Harris whilst supporting one of the worst humans on the planet who has shown he’s incapable of stringing a coherent sentence together, never mind show us his policies.
By inspire do you mean spread hate and fear? By sell a dream do you mean grift like fuck?
 
I've seen this repeated a lot today. It's simply not true.

here is the problem with politics. no one accepts that their side have done wrong so go on the attack. Harris and her supporters did spend a lot of time talking about Trump.

BUT Trump and his supporters spent their time talking about Harris.

from a, relatively, neutral position I felt they were as bad as each other.

It is simply true.
 
We had three threads on here that were all just basically outpourings of hate/rage/ fear about trump and anyone questioning Kamala's suitability, popularity or likelihood of winning was pretty much abused. Mostly by the characters that have now largely slunk off after weeks throwing their treasured opinions around like facts.
You were fucking wumming most of the time tbf

Hate/rage/fear still stands
 
Laughable really as all Trump does is say he will fix this he will do that they will be the best, there is zero context. Why is he allowed to get away with it but Harris wasn't?

It's not even that she wasn't able to get away with it. She had policy, she spoke about it in her rallies. They were on her website.

People who go on about her not having any plans or policies either didn't try very hard to find them, or know she had them but still criticise her for it anyway.
 
Why did Trump lose the first time of asking? What has changed since then, yes we came out of Covid people need to take that into account so the Democrats have had to deal with that, unfortunately the insular nature of the Americans and the blindness to see what’s in front of them rather the drive for more $$$$$s. I hope it royally backfires on them, trouble is they take us all with them.

Thing is you cant go on about the other side constantly if you are already in power
At some point you have to back your record, offer things you could do different and then a show a different way forward
She just offered more of the same
 
Don’t need that last sentence, this isn’t Twitter…
Avoid the question. Good one. So where did all the 2020 Democrat voters go? They just decided to sit home and allow a "fascist" to be elected over a poor noble woman of colour?
 
If Biden had stuck to his promise. A new cadre of Dems would have appeared to run. He screwed the Democrats of that.

Possibly

She wasn't fine. She was a robotic, uncomfortable candidate. Who spendy her whole campaign running away from positions she held a mere 4 years ago. She was bad all around.
Like I said, agree to disagree. But as for running away from positions, she had voted for the same positions during the previous 4 years. Meanwhile her opponent changed positions on abortion three times in a day. Judged by different standards.


But for the record, I said she was a terrible candidate to run against a headwind. Trump wasn't running against a headwind. I know the Main Stream Media painted a different picture than reality. But hey, we are here now.

She called him a racist, fascist threat to democracy. If you think that wasn't worse or on par. I guess we'll have to beg to differ.

No! She called him a threat to democracy many times. I guess you must have missed it.

saying that you think someone is a threat to democracy isn't calling names. It's saying that you believe someone is a threat to democracy.
 
Sure. They've seen both in charge and they prefer the fascist.

The idea that if Harris were only better at press conferences doesn't pass muster.
Right, so Harris lost because 15 million 2020 Democrats decided to sit on the sidelines and allow a "fascist" to be elected.

Rubbish. You simply haven't bothered to check her policies, or don't care if what you're saying is true.
 
Economy for sure. Biden choosing to run, causing Democrats not run a real primary didn't help. Immigration was a disaster.


But above all Kamala Harris was simply a terrible candidate to run against a headwind. She is as bad of a public speaker as I've ever seen on the national stage

They both called each other names. That was a wash. She simply couldn't connect with people who weren't already anti-Trump.
Last sentence spot on.

i listened to her interviews, but she didnt say anything.

To be honest i think she was an awful candidate who appealed to no one who wasn't already a democrat voter
i think any competent democrat politician should have wiped the floor with Trump

If you blame the voters, then you really are missing the issue
