If she she's was a great candidate she would have been the candidate 4 years ago.
She's an adequate candidate for the task at hand, which is beating Trump. Biden no longer is.
That's far from a assured. She has a ton of issues on her own.
She's an improvement over Biden. And just look at all the time, money, and effort Republicans wasted against someone who's no longer even running. They're flailing and trying to find something that will stick.
Improvement cognitively, I don't know if I'd say she's and Improvement in any other way whatsoever.
Fuck ooooffffffffff my god these flippant bullshit one liners get so old
By the same token, Biden was tied for dead last in the 2008 primary. Things change.
That's an interesting factoid, but I haven't been able to find it anywhere. Do you have a source on that?
Dear god, please tell me this isn’t the best you people can come up with.
Funny that's what I say when I hear Harris is gonna be the candidate.
If you’d applied this logic to trump would have even posted this?
Wha... what? What does that even mean?
The republicans are running last election’s loser.
Yeah?
So she hasn't gained any knowledge or experience in the last 4 years? We're all just born with all the knowledge and experience we will ever have?
Honestly, doubt it.
She was on the ticket 4 years ago. She is VP. Now she's on top. Kamala 2024!
I'm concerned you couldn't grasp that by candidate we were talking about the Presidential candidate.
I understand. Kamala is going to president of the United States of America. And it's going to be awesome.
