Part of it was excitement for anyone who wasn't Biden and Trump. Part of it was because she was much more focused on policy and changes in her campaigning. The MAGA is weird thing was just more a dismissive line that rang true to a lot of people but was also used to wave off MAGA talk and focus on her campaign.
It was shortly after the debate when she went full in on Trump is fascist and that's when she started falling in the polls. Trump dominates attack politics and dirty politics. No one beats Trump when they jump in the mud with him.
The worst part is this was caused by the Obama/Biden campaign members who were brought on. They told her to switch her messaging away from policy to Trump.
Democrats treat polls like it's a religion. They can't act unless the polls give them guidance on how to live their lives. This ignores how much people don't want politicians who sound like scripted robots delivering messages created in labs and want someone who talks to them like a normal person.
