I'm not about to say Kamala Harris was the best presidential candidate ever or that she was our best shot at beating Trump. I'm not discussing the quality of her campaign either.
What I DO get tired of seeing is this idea that Kamala merely ran on "I'm not Trump".
This is just so false and hyperbolic.
She had a broad, extensive, and detailed policy plan that was nuanced and was catered towards the middle class.
She never once, not a single time, said or argued in any context in which it was a sole defined feature of her argument, that she was "not Trump".
I will not sit here and defend the quality of her candidacy. That is not the point of my question. I question the media literacy of millions of people who somehow sat through a several month campaign of hers and summed it up to something that she never said nor attempted to run on.
Is the left just as vulnerable to propaganda?
EDIT: I love all the comments from people about how Kamala was a bad candidate and trying to justify how and why she lost. You're not making a point, you're just proving my exact point here about media literacy. Please re-read the first paragraph.
