@wideofthepost Evidence shows the states where the Harris campaign spent time and money resulted in a swing of about 2 points towards their favor, and that more than likely saved their Senate candidates.
@LBJhater9000 Two men who are cosplaying being presidential nominees because they really want to be, but will never be.
Somewhere, an Ao3 fanfic is being written.
@lxeagle17 I'm on the same line of thinking as you. Was her campaign perfect? No, because she did lose. But she was put in an impossible situation and kept Senate and House losses to a (recoverable) minimum.
@BpopeTV We also had older generations telling us not to believe everything we read on the internet. We believed them, and that makes it all the sadder they fell to internet misinformation so easily.

The left in 2024: No more sympathy for fucking morons.
