I highly doubt the left will do anything uncivil. How can they win back the country? Is it too late?

    Fair points. Biden won enough men in 2020 though. Maybe Kamala was just seen as too leftist or too focused on women’s issues or something… I’m not saying she was those things, but maybe some people saw her that way.

      If you look back at her primary in 2020, she was.

      Hard to wash that off with some last minute recanting, like with fracking and other such campaign claims.

      Her hand was tipped as to her ideal term in office 4 years ago, I’m surprised Trump didn’t use that shit in attack ads given how much more stereotypically progressive she was then.

      Personally I called it in when a clip of hers saying “we’ve got to get woke” (not sure about the wording but the word woke was used positively) from some talk show aimed at black people from this year came out.

      You need to live in a parallel dimension to think that word is not absolutely fucking nuclear waste in the political discourse rn.

        I guess ideally Biden should never have run for a second term, and they could have had proper primaries.
