I knew the minute Harris stated she could not think of a single issue she varied from Biden that the game was over. People wanted see a new agenda, and if she had cogently voiced one she might well have won. Instead, she read from a provided script. The country wanted Biden gone. Each day his refusal to step down gave incremental gain sway to Trump. His mind clearly had deteriorated, but his egotism only festered bigger. The maudlin loyalty is unity is loyalty is unity bullshit poisoned her run.

The country wanted change, not more rehashed Biden. Read yesterday that Merrick Garrland was told by Biden to refrain from direct prosecution following Jan 6--remember Garland, a Republican, was appointed by Biden to AG first legal power. Another thing that keeps nagging my mind was the great wounded wailing that the MAGAs reacted to when Biden finally stepped aside. The MAGA elite shouted 'unconstitutional' etc. Trump called it indictable 'treason'. Seemed a bit of over-reaction that they would claim such pain. Could have been just that they knew they could beat Biden, could have been more quid pro, we won't ever know. Everything but popcorn is for sale these days in DC on BOTH sides, and the prices (or grift gains) will now go through the roof. One other thing, everybody on the Left finally began to use the word 'fascism' true to its reality, but since the election, the word seems to have evaporated from the vocabulary by the Left, replaced with words like 'accomodation', 'both sides', 'across the aisle'. Fear, real fear, has already set in.
