Further, suppose that the disastrous June 27 debate with Trump had not taken place, or that Biden had been firing on all cylinders that night.

He was firing on all his (remaining) cylinders.

Kamala was (relatively) more popular when she was performatively distancing herself from Biden. Now that she’s changed tack and moved in lockstep with Biden and his brand of centrist fascism, she’s become unpopular.

The author of this article thinks the only reason Biden wasn’t viable was because of that debate performance. This ignores the fact that Biden was already even less popular than Trump was at this point in his presidency, and well below where LBJ was when he figured he was too unpopular to win reelection and dropped out.

I don’t think there was any way to recover after his campaign went all-in on Bidenomics. They thought they could win by gaslighting the entire country? Did Veep even get this clownshow?
