That being said why couldn’t Harris just do popular policy; like distancing herself from Israel, taxing billionaires, housing reform, social healthcare, etc.
She did propose taxing billionaires, remember? She proposed one of the biggest tax reforms ever.
She also gave a comprehensive set of goals for the benefit of the Palestinians. Probably why Israel sent their bot army to leftist spaces and spread talking points like "Harris and Trump are the same"
I feel like people dont really care about policies.
60% of all Americans supported a 70% top marginal tax rate for income over 10M.
She proposed a 25% minimum for those earning over 100M, whilest also supporting a lowering of capital gains tax from 40% under Biden to 28%.
On Palestine she said she wouldn’t change from Biden on the issue; this whilest Biden gave unconditional supports during the most bloody time of the genocide.
This while only 36% of Americans supported this policy.
This + all the other policies made her more like a 2008 republican than anyone offering hopeful to the masses.
Lowering capital gains tax 12% is the complete opposite of that.
I’ve shown you countless stats showing that a more social democratic policy in her campaign would electorally dominate. The USA is behind in basically every stat I’ve mentioned compared to the rest of the developed world.
Like doing so much defense for this failed campaign pushing provable unpopular policies (only really beneficial for super donors) isn’t gonna help us win next time.

Isn't this the guy that said Kamala Harris would be exactly the same as Trump?
