    You’re right, and that’s why it’s the DNC/harrisncampaign’s fault.

    Harris needed to put daylight on the issue, and instead just assumed “yeah but trump is worse” would actually be effective.

    They didn’t reach voters and basically allowed gop propaganda and lies to reach their base without answer.

    They just assumed voters were there like in ‘16, and this time the voters told them they weren’t. And here we are.

      Y’all have so much hindsight, but ignore the complete stranglehold that the Israel lobby has on politics in this country. Coming out in support of Palestine would have been the death knell for any candidate.

      Don’t overestimate the size of your demographic just because you choose to live in a bubble.
