159. Does no one trust Harris?

Fri Nov 15, 2024, 08:03 AM

Nov 15

LOOK at her reaction to this loss. It was not shock or surprise. This wasn't 2016. Internal polling is typically much more accurate than what we see smashed all over the news- internal polling must have made it clear this was the expected outcome because she was neither shocked nor devastated. She was prepared, quickly conceded and had Trump on the phone the next day.

The other issue is what about every other state that she underperformed Biden in??? Even reliably blue states that she comfortably won (eg. NJ) Did "they" try to steal those states too- right under the (D) governors and SOSs noses and just fail? Are we really to believe that there's a vast conspiracy at play here and 1. the Harris campaign doesn't care and 2. she underperformed Biden in blue states for legitimate reasons but when she did it in purple states, it was because they tinkered with the pillow man's machines?
