    If Harris was a leader she would be out there touring like AOC. Shes not a leader. She had her shot to prove otherwise and didn’t.

      I mean, if I were her I’d feel drained and devastated. Everything that happened during the election and people still picked Trump over her…

        Yeah. I have a lot of problems with Kamala The Cop. But she lost what might be the final election in American History. That takes a lot out of you

        I have a hard time feeling sorry for her after leaving the left hanging and going after conservative votes. She made an incredibly poor strategic choice and it cost all of us.

        Obviously she’s not the only one to blame here, conservatives deserving the majority of blame followed by people that stayed home, but she doesn’t deserve pity.

            A recount requires a vote to be close, it wasn’t. Trump won every swing state. And with the margins he won by, every recount in the world would not overcome the 86 EVs she trailed by.

              The election results were very close - and it was a big election, some ballots were rejected, there were bomb threats and there were also statistical anomalies. She should have asked for a recount.

          Pity maybe not, but understanding definitely. If that were me ya’ll picked Trump over I’d tell all ya’ll to fuck right off while I prep a boat to Europe. Then all the people saying I should stay out of it would be bitching that I’m not participating anymore.

            Exactly. If I were her, I’d fuck off to Europe and send a big fat middle finger to everyone asking for help.

            Is that in the best interests of the American people? No. Is it an entirely understandable reaction? Yes.

      If she were out there touring people would tell her to shut up and sit down. She had her shot, twice, nobody wants what she’s selling.

    I’d vote for AOC over Kamala, 100%.

    I mean, I still voted for Kamala, but I wasn’t excited about it.

      So the “democrats” have no incentive to improve in your case

      You’ll just vote whoever they choose on the ballot

    The shock to me is that Kamala Harris is in the poll at all. What rallies is she hosting? Is she even making any media appearances? I wouldn’t be surprised though if the DNC pull out the super delegates to say AOC has lost day 1 if there is even going to be a 2028 election at all.

      Does it matter tho?

      Y’all know that if they say vote Kamala, y’all will vote Kamala, like it or not

      And the “democrats” know that y’all will vote blue no matter who anyways

          Unfortunately that poll had some very loaded wording in it that doesn’t necessarily lead to the conclusion it’s trying to present

            From page 20:

            Do you support more Democrats like Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez who are calling on Democrats to adopt a more aggressive stance towards Trump and his administration and “fight harder”, or moderate Democrats who are willing to compromise on Trump issues important to their base?

            72% of Democratic voters answered “yes”.

            Go ahead and point out this alleged “loaded wording”.

              You don’t see it?

              You’re assuming that because they want more candidates to obstruct the current administration, that they would also prefer those candidates and throw actual policies in every other situation.

              Because they mixed progressive and opposing the admin together in one question, you can’t tell which part is really what they’re agreeing with.

              Using this specific question to claim they want more progressive candidates is futile. This is basic polling literacy stuff…

                The problem is that you think people are too stupid to understand the question, and only you are smart enough to figure it out.

                It’s a basic question asking if people prefer Dems like AOC and Sanders, who have a more aggressive stance against Trump, over moderate Dems who will compromise with Trump. It’s very straightforward.

                  Nowhere did I imply I was the only one who could understand it. What i did say was that the was this was worded could not be taken to mean the same as the stripped down version you presented.

                  Half of Americans read at or below a 6th grade level. This is NOT a straightforward question in the way you’re claiming. In case you haven’t been paying attention, this country is full of absolute morons who continue to vote against their own interests because of some memes on the Internet…

          A crowd of 30,000 in a metropolitan area of 3 Million people. We don’t need our best to draw the biggest crowds we need them to get the most votes.

    As much as I love her, this country has shown time and time again it is unwilling to elect a woman president. It sucks, and I don’t like it, but the Dems need to run a dude.

    Edit: good job hivemind, proving you’re still alive and strong considering there’s a top comment saying the exact same thing.

    I don’t know what is the needs to be doubtful of polls now, after all, polls told us all over the internet that Kamala would DEFINITELY win the election, and she won it. right?

    Right?

    So yeah this polling must also be saying the truth
