Harris may have been light on policy, but she was able to bait an ‘unhinged’ Trump into a number of traps

    I respect that viewpoint. That was the most famous example. But I know people generally thought she was mean, crass, or shrill because she would call Trump names (accurately) during debates.

    Being aggressive is cathartic for us who pay attention. But swing voters are inherently easier to push away and are inherently not as “sold” on Trump being a national crisis and don’t like being told what to think.

    But I’m just an armchair analyst. So maybe I’m way off.

      She (as in her campaign) even did that to progressives. Its was a very divisive election season. It was really hers to lose.
