    it’s also mere novelty, as harris has been the vice president for years now

      I’ve literally never heard of Harris doing anything before being nominated. There’s no comparison.

        well, certainly, if all goes well the vice president isn’t a particularly interesting position to talk about outside out of the country. it’d be like if we heard about germany’s vice chancellor - the only reason we’d get that news in America is if something went very wrong

          But we go back to my question then, is Harris really so boring that most news since he was nominated are about him, her name being mentioned in passing? Could be my bias, as I don’t actively follow American politics on purpose.

            As an American: delightfully yes. Harris and Walz are running on the promise of peace and being generally charming and charismatic in the way any other country might expect of a politician, in contrast to the memory of Trump spawning two or three new disasters a month
