Are you attempting prose, neef? Needs work.
Joke:
The third-grade teacher was teaching English and repeated for her class: "Mary had a little lamb, whose fleece was white as snow, and everywhere that Mary went, the lamb was sure to go." She explained this was an example of poetry, but could be changed to prose by changing the last line from 'the lamb was sure to go' to 'the lamb went with her.'
A few days later, she asked for an example of poetry or prose. Little Johnny raised his hand and said, "Mary had a little pig - An ornery little runt. He stuck his nose in Mary's clothes and smelled her little . .." He stopped, turned to the teacher, and asked, "Do you want poetry or prose?"
"Prose." the teacher said weakly.
"Butt", finished Little Johnny.

The reluctant trump voters are a force out there. They are people who do not like trump, but hate any Democrat much more. The problem for Republicans is if you add strong trump supporters to reluctant trump supporters, you get somewhere in the neighborhood of 40% today, and probably lower in 2024.
Even before the trump insurrection attempt, trump nearly lost Texas, and actually lost Georgia.

That probably has as much o do with her gender as any agenda to "position her".
The fact that she is a "she" alone is enough for the networks to kind if fawn over her.
"Look everybody!!!! It's a female VP!!!! Isn't it wonderful??? Let's all feel wonderful about ourselves!!!!"
Don't get me wrong, I like Harris well enough and I feel she's more than qualified for the job.
But let's face it... when it comes to minorities and women, the media are shameless panderers.
C'MON MAN!!!!
Harris has time to grow into the job, but she's already been involved in a few faux pas; the military and border being two.
TBH, I think the border thing was overblown, but she/the Biden administration didn't handle it well.
Regardless, I'm still guessing she'll be the first female President....maybe by 2022.
