is it really a hitpiece if its consistent with the same criticism she got when her campaign went off the rails?

if anything people should be demanding to know exactly how all of that got handwaved away as she was chosen to be VP when it was obvious that she'd be a short term, negligible pop at best and a 2024 disaster waiting to happen at worst

Didn't that bald chick who use to fight people for Biden just quit her staff?
People were asking wth she at before the articles and now multiple staffers are quitting, don't look good

General rule is if you keep hearing the same story/accusation/etc about someone it’s probably true. I assumed being VP would result in her getting an all star staff and keeping her head down.

I think part of this is Biden’s camp, who seem extremely upset at any suggestion that he won’t run again. But the bigger part is that she’s just odious and her own people don’t like her. That’s a problem.

I maintain she was the best VP choice based on optics but long term she’s a disaster. Democrats have had a terrible bench since even before Obama though. Even in 2008 he was the only great option, with Hillary as the inevitable candidate. He beat her and got the top spot, but the problem is she dropped down to #2 and nobody bothered to even compete. And dems are still in that hole. They don’t have a young senator, popular governor, special mayor…nothing.

Nah Camp Clinton started a background campaign to suck up donation dollars early and squeeze out all the legit contenders before they started The only one to really run was Bernie who's notoriously no fukks given and he still almost beat her.

there was a big stink inside the Democratic party because a lot of 2014 off year candidates were mad at the Clintons for sucking up contributions from their races.

that wont be allowed to happen again. Kamala and Buttigieg wont be coronated.

That's crazy when you think about it

Its pretty much AOC and the Squad the only Democrat known on a national level that's under age 60. And she can't even run for POTUS yet, too young.

Gillum really screwed shyt up. Could've been a future President no doubt. Getting caught in that gay drug orgy

Republicans have a damn roster. Like this Charlie Kirk dude from Turning Point is 27.

Also this man Obama hasn't really elevated the next generation. Meanwhile Trump is still king making.

He hasn't used his machine and influence like MAGA even though he can

democrats have no interest in developing/growing new leadership that has emerged on its own. especially if they grow to a point where it threatens established seats in any real way. democrats eat their own like crazy and there's almost no purpose behind it other than protecting long standing notions and seats. enthusiasm will spring up organically, dems will punch down and primary their own people out, then they'll turn around and beg for votes while acting like they can't understand why there's so many holes to fill regarding their outreach strategy.

they'd consistently rather push a propped up manufactured nobody like beto or pete than meet new leadership/reps halfway

also, they self sabotage like crazy. using your hillary/obama example - its wild how people just forget how john edwards had it all in the bag then he went out by committing to being a hall of fame scumbag. didn't just fukk up a campaign, but also derailed north carolina as a blue state entirely. ramifications from that are still being felt
