Biden for the last for years: “this guy is evil! Fascist! Literal Hitler!”

Biden today: “welcome back.”
Look at Ol Joe. Doing Presidential shit.

I'm not going to go into it with you because it'll end up with me face palming - but i'll give a one sentence attempt.
A Vice President doesn't have nearly as much power as the President - this includes policy/agenda.

Ok, sure.

Then if the veep is running and wants to distance themself from the incumbent president, it’s up to them to do so.

Kamala didn’t.

By 'some justly and some unjustly' I don't mean the people doing so but the amount of association.
Some degree of association is warranted.
The degree I imagine is spinning around in your brain is likely not.

She is a different human being than Biden and any failures, or what some would consider failures, associated with the Biden administration do not largely fall on her plate.

These two things could be (and I think were) true at once: (1) Biden's work in office was really excellent on the balance, and (2) the only people who were even open to regarding Biden's work in office as even good are those who would have voted for Harris anyway.

In other words, the Dems gambled on persuadability in the electorate that simply never was there.

The side that took a darker and dimmer view of the country turned out to be right.

Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?

The forest chorus keeps thinking there’s something more there than a surface-level lust for face meat. I think that’s giving the bear way too much credit."

Funny stuff and very appropriate for our four in-house members of the Forest Chorus.

I'm sorry, I don't see an axis for VIBES on there.
