      I mean it without a doubt did. I’m not sure what reality you were living in.

        I’m glad you asked, I’m in the reality where Kamala Harris was the most unpopular choice they could possibly choose.

          She was the most popular candidate by every metric at the time and in hindsight. So I can only assume its not our current reality you’re living in.

      You misunderstand. I agree Kamala represented everything the wrong the party has and still does. But there’s no doubt the vibes shifted initially when she first entered the race, and had successfully gotten people for a moment to think we had a real shot at winning. That’s what I mean by revitalize.

      It did not last long. I do not sympathize with the diet-maga apologists who put the blame on the voters in a representative democracy. Hence:

      for a while until Biden’s fuck-up campaign team got her to be almost as flat as Biden.

      Edit: unless you mean it should’ve been Buttigieg and Shapiro or something. If that were the case, I’d kindly say go fuck yourself.
