Fun counterfactual:
Biden drops out in summer of 2023, Harris wins nomination due advantages/Dems like nominating VPs, Harris loses to Trump by a small but very real amount, Harris's rep is she's terrible....Biden has a totally different reputation with the press and armchair historians.

As always: Harris ran better in the contested states than the uncontested states, suggesting (although not proving) that exposing voters to the campaign helped her.
Kamala Harris ran a good, very aggressive campaign, but started at a significant deficit, and ran headlong into a ocean of misogyny, which has continued to dog her even more post-election, now that people feel empowered to say what they REALLY think about her

Will did the most terrible crime a lib can commit: actually do effective political stuff, so he got voted off Black Block Island.
After the Pretti shooting, one of those guys straight-up suckerpunched me for “filming faces”… as I filmed him and fully-masked friends lighting fires directly in front of the dozens of gathered press crews. Nonsensical; just dudes wanting someone to give them a reason. Not that different from ICE.

Also it's deeply sad, but I guess predictable that Gen X nihilism ended up making them the most pro-Trump generation [@chrispps.bsky.social is like "It's true, it's true, oh dear God what have we become!?!?!"]
But the good news is Gen Z is now good again.

Between the popular backlash to ICE brutality and Jerome Powell‘s statement, we are getting more and more signs that Trump is failing to consolidate an authoritarian regime

A fun "times change" fact about Calvin Coolidge is that when he was governor of Massachusetts, police unions were left-wing and elite college students were right-wing so he broke a Boston Police Department strike in part by using Harvard undergrads as scabs.
