The fact that she has to assert this at all shows that she is only a historic figure by technicality. The main thing she actually did that she will be remembered for is lose.

Do you remember Thomas Dewey? Governor of New York, Republican presidential candidate in 1944 and 1948? Or Adlai Stevenson, who was the Democrats’ fall guy to tank the guaranteed losses to Eisenhower. Or most candidates that lost an election more than 50 years ago that didn’t go on to cement their role in history somehow, like Nixon, for example. Kamala won’t be remembered as a loser, she won’t be remembered at all.

Edit: I just reread my comment, it comes off as much more aggressive than I intended it to (which is not at all). Apologies for that.

I remember Dan Quayle. The Man, The Myth, The Potatoe. Harris should probably do something very publicly embarrassing if she wants to be remembered as VP.

I think she will be remembered as a loser specifically because she was vice president first. We don't remember most vice presidents either but the combination of vice presidency into eating shit vs trump I think will cement her as one of the great pathetic figures of American history

Performing so poorly in polls that she was going to lose California to every other primary candidate first, then being picked for VP because she posed no threat to Biden politically, then being chosen by Biden to replace him in the race as a final "fuck you" to the Clinton and Obama camps in the DNC, and then losing the race. She's really a one of a kind loser.

My favorite part was how Biden's team had no opposition research about her because they hadn't done any research on her during the primary and she still lost lmaoooo

Yes. He was also the Mayor of Beach City until his defeat by Nanefua Pizza, after his shameful mishandling of the Diamond kidnapping incidents.

Nah I appreciate how savage it was. Reading what you said I have to agree
