    How do we even know if everything’s normal? Tbh I think Kamala will do worse than a sundowning Biden. I think she’s going to get wrecked

      We'll see. Donny lost his magic touch judging by his lack of posting power, and Kamala is both Not Trump and not a shambling corpse. Biden deciding to not run is also a signal to the donor class that she's willing to play ball

        Kamala looks different. Instead of being a geriatric white man with ancient views she she is a young (for Washington) non-white woman with abhorrent views. In a society as superficial as the American that change in aesthetics could be enough to feel like a meaningful change and convince enough people to vote.

        She might do ok, but she has a history of not actually being very good at campaigning. She's just kind of an awkward person with a tin ear for politics. She's clearly more comfortable arguing a case than doing a stump speech

        Lanyards are more excited. Normal people either functionally don't know who Kamala is or just don't care.

          Normal people didn't like Biden or Trump, and now they're just relieved they have someone new. She'll probably win on that alone.

        Normies do not like women dude esp a black one. Like, for all the idpol crap Dems say about Hillary not being elected because she’s a girl, it’s fucking true. This country runs on image, and idpol, politics is a glorified influencer competition. Let’s be real.

        Normies don’t know the difference between NAFTA or NATO, they don’t know about Hillary’s war crimes motherfucker. Your average voter for a presidential candidate doesn’t know much aside from each candidates profile pic
