This is all BS.
I read a lot of different political stuff, from the right and the left, who agree on absolutely nothing. Except - they agreed that this cycle, the Democrats were completely and utterly screwed, and was completely self-inflicted. They were stuck with Biden, and then they were stuck with Harris. Those on the left who knew what’s what, were reduced to explaining Campaign 101 to the ignorant wondering why they can’t just parachute in somebody. Doesn’t work that way. The old hands on the right were laughing their ass off.
Swapping out the candidate 2 months prior? Fuggedabout it. No chance whatsoever. None. History is clear and every pollster and political veteran knew this. They knew this. The only reason to keep the charade going, or one reason, was to keep the networks happy. Nobody will bother to tune in if they tell the truth “She’s gonna get beat like a rented government mule, it ain’t gonna be close.” That’ll never do.
This is all BS.

Excellent post.
Trump had it in the bag, once Biden and the democrats decided to run him again.
Also, I’m not sure they had anyway to beat Trump. Their primary would’ve been a mess if Biden had stepped down earlier.
