Turns out that Uber's chief legal officer (who also happens to be Harris' brother-in-law) convinced Harris to stop attacking big business during the campaign, in order to get more CEOs on board.

    well luckily all 26 of those CEOs voted for her and overcame the 15 million voters that were alienated.

    But she failed to respond to the ubiquitous ads the Trump campaign ran claiming that Harris supports sex-change operations for prisoners. She allowed Trump to create the impression that she favored the most radical version of transgender rights.

    Biden, allies say, never would have let such attacks stand. He would have clearly rejected the idea of trans women competing in women’s sports.

    Embedded in their autopsies was their own unstated faith that they could have done better.

    Language changes - I know that - but I still hate the word “autopsy” for this. The word “post mortem” already existed for this purpose.

    Members of Biden’s clan continue to stoke the delusion that its paterfamilias would have won the election, and some of his advisers feared that he might publicly voice that deeply misguided view.

    The debate showed that Biden was a wrecked old man who reeked of loser stink. Do they really not understand that? Biden would have lost California.

      post mortem

      I mean if we’re being prescriptivist about it, “autopsy” is preferable because it’s a noun while postmortem is an adjective, the terms “autopsy” and “postmortem examination” being synonyms.

      gross

      And I do kind of like the ring of “autopsy” because it evokes a sense of pulling all the organs out and sticking them in jar full of formaldehyde for display and to poke at in the future, because if 2016 is any indication the examination is going to last a good long while. Maybe we should start calling it a “mummification.”

        Autopsy wasn’t used that way until the GOP started to use it (in the 2010s?) I assume they thought “postmortem” sounded too nerdy and democratic. Also postmortem can be used all by itself as in “The postmortem indicated that…”

          True, it’s just funny that autopsy is the more technically correct term.

    please do a CW for transphobia in the article

    also, spoiler for transphobia

    spoiler

    She allowed Trump to create the impression that she favored the most radical version of transgender rights.

    Biden, allies say, never would have let such attacks stand. He would have clearly rejected the idea of trans women competing in women’s sports. Of course, he never staked out that position in his presidency. But it’s true that Harris avoided the issue, rather than rebutting it, despite the millions of dollars poured into those attack ads. And in the end, those ads very likely implanted the notion that Harris wasn’t the cultural centrist she appeared to be.

    everyone knows you must dignify every one of your opponent’s attacks with a response, which is the moral of the famous LBJ pigfucker story

    It is truly breathtaking to see all of these vile scratched liberals rushing to throw trans people under the bus as if Kamal Harris had word fucking one to say about defending trans humanity. Deeply, deeply unserious.

      She had several words to say about it. I met a few of her victims. So much fucking removed.

      Er, that word gets censored, but its what happens when you put trans people in the wrong gendered prison.
