    He still is ahead of Kamala by about 2% or 2.5 million votes. Before he was ahead of Kamala + Claudia + Chase + Cornell + Jill + Vermin Supreme + Elmo.

    It’s still a closer gap than he lost to Biden by by a lot. But it is also super clear that Harris managed to do worse in this environment than Hillary did in 2016 back when Trump was an unknown crazy person instead of the well known crazy shill for hire.

        Maybe the dems should have done something to actually reform how the electoral system works at any point they had power post-Bush which was quite frequently BTW. This didn’t happen because the democratic party makes money off devouring its base and loves losing so much it will even send money to republican candidates in areas where they have totally lost any presence.

          “Had power” is doing a lot of work in this sentence.
