#4 I'm pretty sure he's not going to look in to the mirror and say "If I had stepped out last year, the party could have had a real primary season".

#7 Media analysts also speculated Joe Biden should have pulled the plug on his candidacy well before his disastrous debate performance.

This would have either given Harris more time to establish herself, or allowed for an open primary to select a stronger candidate, they argued.

An open primary may well have resulted in the nomination of a more viable candidate than Harris who was utterly without qualifications and tainted by her association with the failed policies of Joe Biden. But it seems lately the Democrats have been operating behind closed doors in back rooms instead of being out in the open, transparent and truly democratic.

Who knows what would have happened in 2016 if Biden had been allowed to go for it before his cognitive decline started? Could he have beaten Hillary in the primaries and gone on to beat Trump?

Then in the 2020 primaries when it was apparent that Bernie Sanders would win, the party bigwigs met in a back room and compelled all of the candidates except Biden to drop out of the race. They must have offered Sanders a helluva deal to get him to quit. Either that or they held a gun to his head.

In a general election the Marxist Sanders would have lost but at least his defeat and Trump's victory would have cleared the decks for Democrats to nominate a better candidate this year.

Now it seems the back room, authoritarian, anti-democratic methods of the cabal that has been running this country have finally caught up with them. Anti-democratic policies deny natural selection. They prevent the survival of the fittest and so we get candidates like Harris who was so eminently unfit that they couldn't cheat big enough to get her to the White House.

#8 Mourning Joe blamed the Blacks and Latinos because they are a misogynist people. He then went on to blame Latinos for also being racists by nature.

Interesting take.

The Matrix is doing a Grrrta How Dare You! campaign against the audience of voters who usually vote D but jumped to Trump.

Don't know if its a hangover from the final week of campaigning insult theme or if this was a planned response knowing a week ago Harris was likely cooked.

#9 This would have either given Harris more time to establish herself...

You know what else gives a candidate 'more time to establish herself'? Not ducking the press for the entire first month of her campaign. It's obvious to me that these clowns will come up with any rationale to avoid saying 'we really suck'.

#10 Based on her poll numbers, Kamala had too much time for the voters to discover who she actually was. Unfortunately, the only way she could have had a shorter time window would have required a write-in candidacy.
