    She actually is exceeding expectations.

    Before getting the nod, the narrative was “everyone hates her”.

    I fully expected her numbers to be worse than Biden and while they’re currently dropping to Biden-ish levels, she’s doing better than anyone really expected.

    TBH - I still don’t believe she’ll beat Trump. I’d LIKE her to, but the numbers she’s putting up in Pennsylvania and Michigan aren’t encouraging.

      I dont think people really started liking her. Biden just made himself that much more unlikable. When he stepped down Kamala got a massive swing because the DNC actually listened to us for once and made an actual fucking change. People saw hope for something better the first time in years.
