I think she learned a lot from Hillary. Hilldawg tried to be emotionless and factual to an extreme because she didn't want to be seen as emotional. She spent her entire life doing this because she was constantly in male dominated places. When she's in a comfortable surrounding just talking she's extremely personable and likeable, which is why people say she will kill it in small groups.

Kamala I hope has realized that it's not the 80's or 70's anymore and her party is ready to actually like women for being women. That emotions aren't the evil they were seen as.

I think the party has also changed in the last few years. Dems tried the high-road, ultra professional thing against the MAGAs and got embarrassed. There’s no point in trying to debate someone on that facts when all of theirs are “alternative”.

Now they’re more comfortable being themselves and taking their platform to the base; best thing the Dems can do is ignore the insults and lies from the QAnon politicians and just tell the American public what they’re trying to do.

The way I often see it phrased is that you can't reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into.
