The Democratic Party is a mess. They don’t have a message or a unified party, which makes for poor strategizing when taking on the well-oiled machine that is the Trump White House. The total capitulation on the budget fight is the clearest example of Democrats in total disarray. Yet, these structural flaws could be traced back to the 2024 election, where there are lingering internal squabbles over the expulsion of Joe Biden from the 2024 ticket. Still, even then, the former president reportedly continued to hamstring Kamala Harris, where some are noting how Slow Joe was always an albatross around her neck.
“No daylight” was the mantra, and Mr. Biden expected Harris to protect his legacy as opposed to do what she needed to define herself to voters, who knew little about why she was even running for president. Joe might have been half braindead, but his crew did everything to sabotage Harris.
Still, we know things are tense between the two sides, which has spilled out among Democrats writ large as to who is to blame. It’s part of the long list of things the Left blames for going south in 2024. There wasn’t a single internal Democratic poll with Kamala ahead of Trump during her run. Could that have changed if Biden told her to do what’s best for her candidacy? On paper, sure, she lost, so there’s only one way to go when you hit rock bottom, but Harris is also a proven political loser who couldn’t string a sentence together.
