I still don’t understand why half of the US still support a president that is doing a long term damage
It's a bit more complicated but essentially only a third support him, a third oppose, and a third are either too stupid to know what side to choose or too lazy to do anything. In my opinion it's this third camp that are the worst of the worst. At least the Trumpers are doing what they think is right, these guys are just lazy and willing to just let anything happen to them as long as they can watch Netflix and buy Funko pops.
Overwhelming propaganda.
i dont understand your comment? you know and we should tske care about the people that have the same tendencies. "it's a hell of a drug"
Shows the importance of having a proper primary process. Biden fucked up and dropped out of the race way too late for any democratic candidate to have time to build up hype and momentum. Just being the VP shouldn't make one an automatic default candidate. Harris did pretty bad during the Primary back in 2020, she just was not popular and didn't inspire enough people to go vote.
Harris could have won, when she first announced, and then picked the left candidate for VP, her popularity skyrocketed, then cratered as she embraced the policies that had just killed the Biden campaign.
A democrat cannot win on "we're going to be Republicans, but more competent".
Which is exactly what dems are planning when they fund ICE, but ask that the gestapo stop wearing masks.
Harris actually dropped out months before the primaries in 2020. She was something like 16th most popular candidate at the time she withdrew. She was a pretty unpopular AG in California at the time and likely would not have even won her own state primary.
@DarkSideOfTheMoon In a word? Marketing
