I think people are exhausted by the constant anger and suspicion.

We have to end these two-year long election cycles. One of the great things about Harris jumping in is that it feels like an old school election, run from summer to fall all in one year. Starting a 2024 election cycle in January of 2023 is just too much and everybody hates it. It is a media creation, and accounts for much of our contemporary division and distrust. Nominate in the summer, elect in the fall. That's it. Stop the endless electoral cycle. Enough already!
