This is it. The leaks were true. He’s gone for good.

    Really though? When was the last time a candidate won when they only campaigned for 3 months.

        Yeah, that’s not useful in this analysis because the opponent has been campaigning for far longer. So while 3 months is a good campaigning time, it’s not better than 12 months.

        And of course we campaign year round because of money.

            How is 3 months of narrative development not worse than 12 months of narrative development? It’s a clearly disadvantaged position.

                My god. You cannot keep your thinking straight, can you. I said 3 months is not enough time to counter the year long campaign of Trump. You said in Canada that everyone does it in 3 months. Which means, of course, that no one is competing with a year-long campaign in 3 months. How do you not see this?

                You think that there’s no advantage to ground game for literally 4 times longer than your opponent can possibly work? And that’s IF the Ds nominee is selected quickly and they have a solid campaign strategy. More than likely the infighting and confusion is going to delay the creation of a coherent strategy so we’re talking about less than 90 days while Trump’s team has been working for the last year and now has the upper hand in narrative pacing because the Ds are in public disarray.

      Biden is a decaying corpse bombing hundreds of thousands of Palestinians to death. Kamala is safer, actually.

        I disagree. She literally got on international television and told imigrants “do not come”. As soon as she’s asked about the Zionist entity she’s going to alienate everyone that Joe did.

          Not being a rotting corpse is likely a big selling point for many voters. Not every voter, of course, she isn’t a beacon of progressivism, but it will be enough to sway the narrative.
