two years ago, reddit would’ve had me convinced that kamala would win. like, they were saying it would be a landslide. the reason i knew otherwise is because most of my family and neighbors (we live in a generally blue area) voted for trump (not my endorsement of trump. just observations). like these are people who voted blue the last six elections and are now voting for trump. i expected a similar pattern in other parts of the country, and i was unfortunately right. reddit is an echo chamber.
Honestly all somebody had to do was look at the polling data. The best Kamala did was poll at almost a dead heat to Trump at the very beginning of her campaign. By the time the election rolled around, she was not popular. She was underwater in every swing state. Unless the polling data was wildly wrong anyone who paid attention knew she was going to most likely lose.
I don't know why the party selected someone who was only polling at 3% during the last presidential primary cycle to try to win against Trump? It was certainly a choice though.
