Remind me, what happened to Kamala’s poll numbers as she shifted to the center?

That wasn’t Kamala’s problem. You really do have a short memory. She lost because she also wasn’t a good candidate. You can’t invalidate Biden’s issues because Kamala lost. They both had their own issues. Biden polled the worst against Trump. Kamala polled the second worst against Trump.
I might be reaching, but I don’t think that was the point of their comment. A problem with the democratic party is that they’re such a big tent party that it’s hard to say what their platform and what their strategy is. They seem to only be successful when they have someone like a Bill Clinton or a Barack Obama. Someone that oozes charisma and can present a unified vision. The problem is, that never becomes the party’s vision.
He beat Medicare… My grandmother passed away of a brain tumor. As her symptoms progressed she struggled to form sentences and find the words she wanted to use. You could tell she knew what she wanted to say, but couldn’t get it out. That’s exactly what Biden looked like on that stage. You are delusional if you saw that performance and thought he was the correct candidate for the democratic party. Hell, even Biden saw that performance and decided he wasn’t the correct candidate. I’m not sure where you’re getting your narrative from, but you’re so far from the reality that everyone saw.
Trump’s performance was abysmal, as normal for Trump. Biden crashed so hard and set the bar so low that Trump was able to clear it. Someone with full faculties was able to easily dismantle Trump, as demonstrated by Kamala. Biden kept bringing the debate back to the issue of immigration. That was Trump’s largest strength in polling. That’s an awful debate tactic that a younger Biden wouldn’t have done. Hopefully there aren’t enough people like you in the DNC. I’m not looking forward to another loss in 2028 because you refuse to accept reality.
The fact that she seemed completely caught off guard for what was possibly the most obvious question definitely didn’t help. Of all questions to not prepare for…
Clearly more intelligent? He was struggling to form coherent sentences. Trump spewed lie after lie, but could at least form complete thoughts.
Sure, if you want to rewrite history that could be true. Everyone was fearful of Biden’s mental health because they kept him out of the public. Then, when he did the debate, he confirmed everyone’s fears. It wasn’t that long ago, how have you already forgotten?
Add that he enabled the Biden disaster to the list. He was supposedly his mock debate partner and didn’t raise any red flags about Biden’s mental health. Seriously, fuck that guy.
One of the best? He didn’t even support Medicare for all. He’s just another pathetic neolib.
