“the swiftest vibe shift in modern political history.”

How is this measured? seismograph? meat thermometer? dipstick?

I remember way back in 2016, Hillary and the Dems had a pretty heavy "vibe shift" between the day before Election Day and the day after. Isn't this what broke the political class and their journalistic dingleberries? Aren't we still living the same endless nervous breakdown because of the "vibe shift" that happened when the people who believe themselves divinely appointed owners of America had the felt sense of lost power and responded like a cross between Lady Macbeth and Capt Ahab?

We seem to be living through some form of unstoppable epistemic rot, a mad-cow disease of our political brain, where the commandment of Thou Shalt Not Think has destroyed the ability or capacity for any type of thought.

And thus we get to Kamala: the emptyheaded hologram no one voted for, who currently has no positions, no record, no responsibilities, no accomplishments, no beliefs, no thoughts, no integrity, no ability or desire to answer questions and no plans on changing any of these things.

When I think about the Biden/Harris record, "joy" is the last word that comes to mind.
