It would have been nice if everyone showed up to vote too

Democrats dismantled one of the most effective GOTV operations in the Midwest because of an obvious psyop by a college drop out.

That was the beginning of a long and miserable series of defeats at every level of government for the next 18 years.

Gotta wonder what you are supposed to think about a party that won't fight for the VRA, won't fight for the courts, won't fight for DC statehood, and won't fight for the wildly popular anti-war and pro-health care policies that they campaigned on.

At the very fucking least, Biden could have delivered on a prosecution of the Trump administration, rather than telling his voters that Trump had done nothing illegal.

Your memory is bad, or, more likely, propagandized.

Biden won the 2024 primaries. He should have admitted to himself he wasn't capable anymore, but he didn't.

By the time he stepped down the Dems had a little problem: they couldn't legally put anyone else on the ballot in a fair number of states. Or at least it would been argued in court they couldn't. Harris was literally the only choice available, unless they just didn't run a candidate in half the country, by virtue of being on the ticket already.

Yes, the Democrats are running a geriocracy and have been openly puppeting a fair number of senile senators for a decade so they probably figured they could get away with it again.

Yes, Biden and the people surrounding him fucked it up by refusing to acknowledge reality.

Yes, Harris obviously wasn't a good enough candidate.

You should probably put a little more effort into knowing what actually happened before complaining though.

All but two states had candidates for president on their Democratic primary ballots (fuck those two that didn't). My state had like 7 candidates to pick from. And then again for the convention, after Biden dropped out, they opened up the field for candidates to declare again and the pledged delegates all voted on the nominee. What you really should be mad at is that there weren't any serious challengers running, but that's the fault of those individuals for not doing so (even it was under private pressure from the DNC it was their own choice to capitulate). You're also forgetting that a measly 4% of primary voters showed up to vote for "Uncommitted," which turned out to be hugely successful in drawing media attention to the discontent of active voters and contributed to Biden's eventual stepping down.

There we go. If only she went after more Republican voters and abandoned trans people. Then she would have cinched it.

I’m thinking the reason he dragged his heels releasing it is that it proves that the current DNC leadership still hasn’t learned anything and has no plans to improve.

It was all Kamala’s fault. 🙄

She makes an excellent fall girl. But that's always been her job within the party. Gotta wonder how a candidate this unqualified made it to California AG, nevermind Presidential nominee.

At some point, she's responsible for her own ambition.
