I believe it was a mistake to pull out this late in the game and think its probably giving Trump the win but seeing how mad republicans get is almost worth it.
I don't really understand how it's too late?
4 months feels like a perfect amount of time to woo the populace - enough time to see and hear her without getting weary of her.
What advantages would they have had by switching Kamala in a month or two ago ?
Kamala polls better than Biden in match-ups against trump among every age group except boomers whose kids are trying to get them to surrender their car-keys.
That said, I expect it's all rearranging deck chairs on the titanic. Turn out among dem voters will probably be lower than in 2020 because that's what happens when instead of doing what your voters want, you end covid protections, facilitate a genocide, and beat them up for protesting that genocide.
I truly admire your spirit in trying to spin this as a bad thing, but come on man. You don’t even sound like you believe it.
In what way am I spinning this as a bad thing?
