Harris records a video for her supporters

[ultraviolet]

I really don’t see why people think she sounds drunk?

Judging from the unhinged responses to such a basic video it's clear that Harris' life was spared by not being elected. The same with Hillary Clinton. That is really the only silver lining of 2016 or 2024.

Yeah, honestly it’s scary just how violent Republicans online are in their hatred of her.

she deserved to lose

she deserved to lose

Still in the "denial" stage of the slow realization you just made one of the dumbest voting choices possible, I see. How many more Cabinet felons to "acceptance"?

while you, are still in “denial” that she lost, period.

I think this alludes to an underrated concern for Democrats which is just a large chunk of their base will grow apathetic and possibly intentionally distance themselves from politics because they're just so done with it. One could argue we saw this this past election with turnout being disproportionately down in heavily Dem areas, but wonder if another term of Trump and all the expected chaotic media and many at least moral losses could cause more to just sit out.

It'll spark a fire under Democrats again, like in 2016. Democrats seem to always get complacent when the party is in power, and then rise to the occasion when s*** inevitably goes t**s up when Republicans take over. It's an endemic problem for the country, not just the Democratic Party,  to only learn (usually only temporarily) the hard way. For instance, without Dobbs the 2022 midterms wouldn't have been a pleasant surprise for Democrats. But Dobbs wouldn't have happened if Clinton won n 2016.

It's 'Groundhog Day,' I'm telling you all.

The so-called resistance right now is not anything like it was when Trump won in 2016.  No energy at all behind it.

Biden is alive and well.

It's true so far. One of the reasons I'm really thinking about running for an office. People seem really demoralized and pessimistic with hardly any of the resolve of 2016...yet.
