She was the pick because:
1) connection to incumbency
2) the money already raised was only available to her
3) it was 107 or so days before the election
4) Trump was salivating over Dem disarray if Biden dropped out โ Kamala was the only one that took that off table w/o shit-show of mini-primary at the Dem convention, which was like 30 days after Biden dropped
5) anybody with real POTUS ambitions on the Dem side wasnโt going to sign up for the sub-100 day sprint to the finish
All in all, she ran a great campaign all things considered. I wonโt get into post-mortem theories on what happened. Yโall have done that to death already.
Buckle up โ itโs gonna be a bumpy four years starting in Jan. Or Trumpโs incompetence and laziness will prevail and Trump 2.0 will be a four-year penalty kill. I just hope he doesnโt destroy America before we re-rack this in 2028.
