Perfect summary. Harris did a superb job of instantly uniting them under her banner the second it became obvious Biden was fucked. This navel gazing from Pelosi is utter nonsense.

North of 10M voters who turned out for Biden didn't show up for Harris. She was a great candidate but the democrats message didn't resonate after the years of inflation.

My eggs are more expensive too. So are everyone elses in the world. I just blame Putin for destabilising and the stores for blatant price gouging the second they felt they could.

Exactly this. Harris probably would have overseen the shift of the prices going back down and the "muh economy and inflation" Republicans wouldn't have had as big of an argument for 2028.

Ukraine winning, Trump dies from health issues/arrested for his crimes (long shot on the last one), and doing her best to secure abortion and queer protections, she would have been great for her second term.

And now we get nothing but the worst of both worlds.
