This makes her “strategy” even more baffling than before. How do you know you are down the entire time and do absolutely nothing about policy?

    I feel like her political background just isn’t a “swing for the fences” one, though. The only thing that would’ve made her lose worse than she did would’ve been if she was faking it. People might not be smart about policy and whatnot, but Americans can spot a fake 100 miles away.

    Trump was never anything but his most authentic self from the moment he rode down that escalator until today.

    Harris trying to go fulll Bernie/ Squad would’ve failed spectacularly. Because that not what she believes in.

      I feel like Trump has said a lot of things that he didn’t hold himself to, which is kinda fake behaviour. I think I understand what you mean though, even though I struggle to articulate it

        Trumps authentic self is a liar.

        The above comment isn’t about lying, but about authenticity.

        Americans can’t necessarily spot a liar a hundred miles away, but they absolutely can spot insincerity a hundred miles away.
