Harris had all sorts of good things planned at home. It’s baffling to me that some voters thought it was more important to lose the election.

Voters don't lose elections, campaigns do. Harris failed, and this kind of "turning around of the blame" thing that Dems try to do is one of the reasons why they don't win elections: they never learn.

  • The reality is that Trump voters were (are?) dumb as rocks and tricked by simple populist messaging. There was nothing harris could've done short of succumbing to populism herself, and cloaking her campaign in dishonesty, fear, and simpleton reasoning.

    Maybe she shouldve done that, but you can see why she didn't.
