I'm not saying this mindset among some Democrats doesn't exist, it clearly does. But come on, Democrats. If < 115,000 Trump voters in MI, PA, & WI had shifted their votes to @kamalaharris.com, she'd be President now. This wasn't a landslide.

I don’t know why you are talking about Trump voters. If 300,000 more people who voted in 2020 that didn’t vote in 2024, she’d have won. The discourse over movement towards red in some groups belies the fact that a lot of people just didn’t vote.
If everyone had kept their shit together and rallied, Biden might have won. He would have picked up the men lost with Kamala and that is not her fault. Dems chickened out.
The whole thing was a mess and they just should've kept it together until the election. It couldn't have turned out worse.
You're right. There are many reasons. She was in an impossible situation and so were Democrats, and they put themselves there.
Months before the election you replace the incumbent with a vice president who hasn't had the visible exposure she needed to run for president under his administration.
I heard other voters say the exact same thing you did.
What it did it was bring all kinds of crazy scenarios like a mini convention or Oprah doing a panel discussion. 🙄 It was nuts. They should have kept their mouths shut and just toughed it out. IMV.

One self-described independant woman explained to me that she couldn't vote for Kamala b/c the Dem party didn't pick her.
Another former Obama voter just didn't think Kamala was qualified. Now concerned we won't make it through 4 yrs.
