I found this satire piece to be absolutely delightful, capturing the potential rage that Hilary kept under wraps after it was announced that Trump won. It was a disappointing time, as that orange clown got the better of a far more fit person to serve in office.

There's a lot of good reasons why Clinton sucks ass, going back to her time as what amounted to a Walmart lobbyist operating within her husband's gubernatorial administration.

But I'm afraid a lot of people are just voting on vibes. "Hilary is bad because she's sort of weird and off-putting, after years of molding herself into Generic Democrat".

Harris has substantially more personality, which is nice. We also haven't spent the last twenty years basting "Hilary Death List" / "Canckles" / "Ugly Lesbian Uppity B-" 90s tier slander with her. I'm confident the GOP hate machine will ramp that up quick and bombard her with it over the next four years, regardless of whether she wins. Then more people will sour on her.
