65. Excuses I'v seen the most: Mariah Carey-like "I don't know her" even though all they whine about is "change"

and should be interested in someone they don't know; Harris didn't state any big differences between her and President Biden during the debate (you know, the guy described by everybody as an FDR type); Didn't solve all America's problems as Vice President; Didn't suddenly create a new foreign policy all by herself for a whole country and bring peace to to the Middle East; Didn't say the word fracking enough or something; Same thing as always, lying about Democrats ignoring working class when the less money you have the more likely to vote for Democrats because they're the only party helping the working/middle classes -- like claiming Hillary Clinton never ever ever ever talked about the economy or had any plans or policies or message when (FACT YOU CAN LOOK IT UP) the most often used word in her speeches and rallies was "jobs."

I forgot another stupid one: Harris got too close to Liz Cheney and caught cooties forcing her to hand over the country's car keys to Republicans and they'll totally take over.

All bullshit. Doesn't include the unsaid excuses. All everyone knows is: BLAME DEMOCRATS EVEN WHEN IT MAKES YOU SOUND LIKE AN IDIOT.
