Her campaign began with huge fanfare. Now she’s slipping in the polls and making seemingly obvious mistakes. What’s going on?

This campaign is so frustrating because it feels like all the momentum she got coming in and replacing Biden was just squandered by consistently tacking right. Trump's campaign ads are better at convincing me to vote for Kamala than hers are. I come out of every Trump ad thinking "If Kamala was half as radical as she's being presented I would be so much happier", and more or less the same down ballot too. My congressional candidate is a shitty Zionist and corporate stooge, so hearing them in their own ads makes my blood boil, but the ads run by the opposition make them sound like an actual progressive.
