In the 2020 elections You could argue that kamala was the weakest candidate out of the whole crop Not even in a leftist way like there were better liberals and centrists I think she did worse than bernie Amy Warren and even shit faced butegig While Biden provided a legacy candidate the top brass liked Bernie and Warren were exciting for the youth Amy was the centrist candidate Even Pete had more popularity

Kamala provided nothing The only reason she was picked for vp was that she was that she provided so many identity cards (black/Asian/female) it filled in the gap of electing an old white man as president

But now in a clear case of astro turfing meme culture is trying to rehabilitate her Even tho she is still the nobody who climbed the ladder who go their by mass incarceration of black people

The token vice president who stood by like a good dog while Biden failed to codeify roe v wad or deliver on campaign promises

In alot of ways she is the face of the Democrat party, a craven sycophant who betrayed her people to climb politics.

I think she has the best chance of winning but ironically she has the same major liability that Joe Biden had, that is being associated with Joe Biden.

Almost any attack Trump could make against Biden, barring being senile, works for Harris because she was literally in the administration. The portion of the populace that votes to punish the current president for economic downturns will hate her almost as much as Biden.
