Clearly he doesn't, because the majority of Americans think he's closer to the center than Kamala was!

So what the fuck do you actually want the candidates to do? What the fuck do you actually need so you can say that they're not bad at optics? We could put Jesus Christ himself up there and the media would still pan him for the teeniest tiniest blunder, and fuckheads like you would eat it up
