The Kamala enthusiasm is the most obviously manufactured narrative since the 40 beheaded babies
That doesn't mean that it's not going to work. People like to support someone other people support. Most western politicians are off-putting losers and whether one of them is popular or not depends more on who is favoured by the consent manufacturing machine than on their individual merits.
This is true
It will work, deals have been made, kamala the cop will be the next US president.
I don't think it's Kamala enthusiasm so much as post-Biden relief. Something like 80% of Dems wanted him out of the race, so whether they're on board with Kamala or not they're happy to have someone to rally around that isn't a corpse puppet.
