What we’re seeing is a lot more like 2020 than 2016. In 2016, there was definitely a decades long smear campaign against Hillary that was ripe for the picking when she ran. Couple that with the BernieBros, Russian interference and Comey and it was a perfect storm of doubt and division. 

This election year Democrats are unified. Despite how terrible a candidate people claimed Kamala was in 2020 and would be now, from only about 3 months ago. Now all I see of praise for her. That’s a starting contrast to 2016 and similar to what we saw for Biden in 2020.
