Desantis polled great too before he opened his mouth. The same thing would likely happen for Kamala. Hate to say it, but Gavin Newsom has a much better shot

Gruesome Newsom is a sleazy piece of shit, but you can tell he has some savvy political instincts of how and where to position himself. Immediately after the debate he smelled blood in the water and was trying to thread the needle of positioning himself as a potential replacement while also playing coy about whether he'd call on Biden to resign. You can tell he has a lot of barely concealed contempt for Kamala's ability to be almost as shitty and incoherent as Biden but managing to fail upwards and end up being VP even though she was polling sixth in the primaries in California before she dropped out and never even made it to the Iowa primary too. If he had an opening and thought he had a shot at winning a general election against Trump, he'd 100% jump at the opportunity to fuck over Harris.

I think you'd be surprised at how much "she reminds me of my mom/wine aunt" appeal Kamala has but ok. I dont think she's like DeSantis at all.
