    I know this is one of the dumbest things to latch onto, but why do they keep talking about “Kamala Harris’s policies” like she’s the current president? If that were true, then Vance is a dementia addled lying sack of…

    Huh, I guess I answered my own question.

      Desperation, they really, REALLY wanted to run against Biden, where the age issue worked more for than against him.

      They know they are fucked, their only option left is to bang on the table.

      Thank you! I think it’s sad how they are so desperate to paint their election opponent in a negative light to score political points that they are pretending she’s the president and is responsible for everything going on. Even in normal circumstances, the president can’t push a magic button and control the price of eggs or gasoline or whatever, but the hypocrisy of blaming Harris for it now is just doubling down on the lie. It was all “Biden did this, Biden did that” right up until he bowed out of the race and suddenly Harris is actually responsible for all that shit and it’s infuriating to see them trying it and even more infuriating to see it somehow actually working on people.
