Why it matters: Voters largely disapprove of Biden's handling of issues like inflation, but Harris has benefited from the fact that they don't tend to blame her. Rather than distance herself, though, she has mostly embraced Biden's policies as she runs for the White House.

Harris then proceed to completely destroy that perfectly fine shield that was defending her from Bidens worse decisions for absolutely no reason...

I'd ask who was running this campaign and telling her to say this stupid shit, but I already know it's the same dumbasses that ran the 2016 and 2020 campaigns, and they're literally incapable of accepting any kind of blame for trump winning one of those elections and almost winning the other.

People want to act like Biden didn't squeak by with 30k votes and 2020 was some kind of mandate, we can't keep letting people this stupid run the only viable political party that's not explicitly fascists.

Too much shit is on the line

"I really really really want to lose this election. I've hired the best worst people I could find and will flip a coin as to whether I should listen to them or not. I look at polling and think, how can I improve Trump's polling? I find myself waking up in a cold sweat having had a nightmare where I actually won the election."

I like biden. He has done an incredible job. Hope she does half as well. We all know what trump will do.

That's not encouraging when the guy you're replacing has shown clear mental decline.

It's getting obvious why even Obama wanted open elections.

Harris is an israeli foreign agent who will sink America with all her might.
