So, her national polling has always been abysmal, but all of a sudden she's a great candidate? This is the same mentality that Joe has been good all along but now has to step aside. Frame it however you want Goat to make yourself feel better. She's always been a loser and that hasn't changed in the past 24 hours.
This scenario, Joe not being able to make the weigh-in, was the only way possible for her ever to have a sniff of the nomination. The only reasons it's not going another way are the financial and state delegate hurdles keeping another candidate from entering.
No one likes Kamala, including you.
No, she is not great, but again, it's a binary choice between her and Trump.
"She's always been a loser and that hasn't changed in the past 24 hours". This is pretty much the exact same argument circa 2020 of "Joe Biden ran for president twice before this and couldn't even make it out of the primary". Which pretty much ignores the fact that he / she has been the Vice-president for at least a term now. You can poo-poo that all you want, but it carries weight.
Ask yourself an honest question: Has Trump picked up more votes since 2020?
People were already sick of him in that election. He lost BY A LOT.
Since that time, he has:
Lied constantly about the election being stolen
Didn't win any new voters with the Jan. 6th shenanigans.
Got caught taking classified documents (no, that is not going away. It will just end up being a new prosecutor)
Is now 78 years old, which is older than what Biden was in 2020 and Trump was screaming from the high heavens that Joe was too old then.
Been convicted of sexually abusing a woman.
Been convicted of falsifying business records.
Do you really think that people that voted against Trump in 2020 are going to turn back to him now?
How many posts have we seen over the past 6 years of people essentially saying "If my choice was Donald Trump and an expresso machine, I'd probably vote for the expresso machine". Joe Biden essentially being an expresso machine was going to force alot of people to actually make that choice. Realistically, I think it wouldn't have garnered Trump more votes, but I believe that turnout for Biden would have been way down.
With Harris being the nominee though, the apathy is now gone. In the end it will come down to turnout, as it almost always does, but I think the odds of Trump winning dropped below 50% today. There's still a few months left, which is an eternity in politics, but things are not looking good for Trump.
Trump has the economy on his side (as in, it's not fantastic right now and the Democrats are in power). If he has any good sense at all, he does nothing but pound that from now until November. Attacking wokeism is a sidebar argument at best. Stick to the money. That is where Harris is most vulnerable.
