I don’t think we can definitively say “not picking Shapiro for VP was a mistake” because there’s decent contemporary reporting that he actually turned her down for the position. He may have seen the writing on the wall.
Harris isn’t very smart and she ran a terrible campaign and:
After the election the Democratic Party (my party) must rethink many of its policies as it ponders its future.
To be entrusted with power again Democrats must start listening to the concerns of the working class for a change. As a lifelong moderate Democrat I share their disdain for many of the insane positions advocated by my party.
Democrat politicians defy biology by believing that men can actually become women and belong in women’s sports, rest rooms, locker rooms and prisons and that children should be mutilated in pursuit of the impossible.
They believe borders should be open to millions of illegals which undermines workers’ wages and the affordability of housing when we can’t house our own citizens.
They discriminate against whites, Asians and men in a vain effort to counter past discrimination against others and undermine our economy by abandoning merit selection of students and employees.
Democratic mayors allow homelessness to destroy our beautiful cities because they won't say no to destructive behavior. No you can’t camp in this city. No you can’t shit in our streets. No you can’t shoot up and leave your used needles everywhere. Many of our prosecutors will not take action against shoplifting unless a $1000 of goods are stolen leading to gangs destroying retail stores. They release criminals without bond to rob and murder again.
The average voter knows this is happening and outright reject our party. Enough.
When Trump first became a thing my line was that he was the male Rosie O'Donnell, with apologies to Rosie
Eight years later I'm happy he won again. The instant the media started calling him all the names they have always called conservatives and libertarians, he was my guy. See the conservative icon and Never Trumper Jonah Goldberg's book "Liberal Fascism" for a self-aware study in how the dynamics of the best defence being a good offence lead conservatives to adopt the term fascist as a description of liberals. In large part the same dynamic made Trump
Somehow, the D's were so principled about illegal immigration that they leaned into his best issue in spectacular fashion. While I'm not happy that they made me like him, I am happy their judgment was so poor as to let him win again
