I wish politics didn't get reduced to "he/she was good on the teevee" level or below that.
In 2016, I remember Hillary being perfectly rational and clear during the debates. Yet I also remember reaction photos from across the country, people not even listening to the words being spoken, just squirming at the sight of Clinton, poisoned by decades of negative propaganda against her, utterly oblivious just how viscerally they had been manipulated by right-wing media's hatred towards "this... this... uppity librul woman".
They didn't listen to a single goddamned word being spoken by anyone. They might as well been watching a silent .gif as far as they were concerned. Such informed voters, so savvy! bOtH pArTiEs ArE tHe SaMe!
And Harris seems to know how dimwitted those viewers are, hence the vibe check campaign. You don't need to comprehend words to see Trump squirm and her laughing it off. I hope that plan works!
"Is it possible that we just had a bad candidate...? No, it's the voters who are wrong!"
The voters were right actually. Trump lost the popular vote by a decent chunk. It's our fucked up, right biased electoral college that put him in the White House. Hillary won the voters.
Shhh, don't tell them there is a lot of slant to their side, it would shatter their victim complex
