    Cool literally my only concern is beating trump tbh. Bit worried about a 2016 rerun and whatnot. Although I suppose Harris probably isn’t as wildly unpopular as Clinton? Idk

      My teenaged, properly Trump hating kid: I don’t like Harris.

      Me: Why not?

      Kid: I don’t know, I just don’t like her. She’s awful.

      Me: Do you know anything she’s done?

      Kid: No, I just don’t like her.

      Me: Have you ever even seen or heard her speak?

      Kid: … No.

      Let me tell you, the propaganda is powerful.

      She’s not well known enough to be that disliked. She’s also got very little charisma, which is why she did so poorly in the primary. But she’s generally considered a good debater, which would be helpful right about now. Honestly, I think voters are just looking for someone who wasn’t alive when Germany surrendered, and she does fits the bill.
