President Biden performs best among several high-profile Democrats in hypothetical general election match-ups against former President Trump, according to a new poll. The Emerson College survey re…
I hate it, but if Biden dropped Harris and picked up Adam Kinzinger, the election would be in the bag. He wouldn’t lose any Democrats and he would pick up all the never trumper Repubs and a majority of centrists/undecided voters. (And Trump might just have a stroke when he hears about it).
There is nothing wrong with her personally. It’s simply the intersection of sexism and racism that makes things harder for all female minorities in positions of power. The same is true for Fawny Willis, AOC, even Michelle Obama. Democrats aren’t immune.
Kamala is a black female, therefore anyone who doesn’t like her is sexist/racist?
There are plenty of reasons to dislike Harris. She is an establishment goon with zero relatability. Decisions she made as a prosecutor have made her deeply unliked specifically among black voters. She performed terribly in the primary, only registering positive attention once, when she attacked Biden for supporting racist bussing policy. She was foisted on us anyways, unless we wanted Trump as president.
The Democratic establishment took advantage of the Trump crisis and forced the candidate of their choosing onto voters that had just solidly rejected her. That alone is good reason to dislike her.
If Biden manages to beat Trump, I seriously doubt he will make it for 4 years. That means we will have Harris as the next encombant. If Biden lasts 2 years then Harris will be eligible for two full terms which means we may have to wait until 2036 before we get another primary. Biden is going to run on saving Democracy from Trump, and I’ll probably puke every time I have to hear it.

No, but enough of the population is one the other or both to seriously harm her chances. You really think the majority are as educated about her performance as you are? Doubtful
no there’s definitely something wrong with her personally, we don’t get to blame this one on bigotry. She’s as milquetoast as they come and her past as a prosecutor just doesn’t inspire any kind of enthusiasm from anyone left of “elightened centrist”
Dropping Harris would only benefit the Biden campaign.

She just wasn’t the VP we need. At 81 there are some that will take that into account.
At his age, he should be considering his VP very carefully. It matters.

If you think being milquetoast means they can’t be presidential, that’s a problem right there.
lol. That’s straight up not what I said and wtf does “presidential” even mean?
Basically I am saying that just because someone is good on TV doesn’t mean they are qualified to run a country.
Who’s Kinzinger? Jay Pritzker should run.
Kinzinger is one of the two Republicans who ran the Jan 6 committee, along with Liz Cheney.
I’m sure whoever Trump picks would also do worse against Biden
