73. Well, since Harris lost, perhaps there should have been a primary

I doubt she would have been the nominee.
Just like in 2016, the DNC and elites of the Party wanted Kamala and they shoved her down our throats.
Just like in 2016, she lost.
Maybe they will learn to allow the people to choose.
But I doubt it.
