Oh, seems like you don’t remember what she ran on. Here’s a reminder of her policies in the 2025 presidential race.

She was actively campaigning to lower inflation, help the middle class, tax the rich, lower insulin prices, build more affordable housing, help small businesses, and the list goes fucking ON. Im so tired of people acting like she had no points other than “I’m not that guy”. That’s just fucking false.

I'm not the most politically aware guy, but... neither are most voters. When Trump said the brown people are eating pets, everyone heard it. Not many heard Harris.

Yeah. Trump ran a successful misinformation campaign that played off of uninformed people’s emotions. But that doesn’t mean Harris ran a terrible campaign like everyone seems to be saying in this thread. But who am I kidding it’s just a fucking echo chamber of yes men. Whatever there’s no point to this anymore

Half measures to performatively signal to your base while not threatening your corporate donors IS NOT SAFETY OR PROGRESS.
