It's funny how people try to rationalize why Trump won, as if has any rationality behind it whatsoever.

Another one of her messaging issues was that she has a vagina.

The more I think about it the more I'm convinced her problem was Biden. The Democratic senators that are winning in the swing states spent an entire year separating themselves from Biden.

Harris didn't get that chance. She took over Biden's campaign, his advisors, his ground network, his convention, 4 months before the election. If he had just recognized his time was over we could have had a real primary, with different campaigns to find the one that resonates with the people.

Biden absolutely fumbled this by even bothering to run. If there had been an open primary there would be some actual momentum behind the winner (which I doubt would've been Harris).

I don't care to speculate her chances in a primary. If she had won it then she'd have a campaign far more likely to energize the Democratic base. If someone else had won it then they would have a similar advantage. Not having it, and finding out in the worst way that we should have used the fucking 25th amendment is the original sin of this campaign.

Absolutely agreed, Biden will be remembered with William Henry Harrison because of it.

This is the only take I'm gonna let in. The rest of these "hot takes" can fuck right off.
