Summary
Kamala Harris’s political skills have transformed a potentially disastrous 2024 presidential election into a competitive race.
Despite initial skepticism and a challenging campaign, Harris has improved her public image and closed the gap with Trump on key issues. Since Biden stepped aside in July and endorsed her, she has shifted from an unpopular vice president to a viable candidate, even matching Trump in polls on economic issues.
Her leadership has given Democrats a chance to prevent a Trump landslide and halt the rise of American authoritarianism.
Did she win? No? Then it doesn’t fucking matter!
What? Should she be getting a participation trophy? Sorry, I can’t hear you over how Ukraine is being annexed by Russia.
Also it wasn’t a toss up. Trump won every single swing state. All of them. This article is some mad copium. Prepare to see more of it over the next few days.
I know right. They act like Harris was some plucky underdog. When in reality her party is only one of two that govern the most power country on earth.
