The 2024 runner-up is weighing a 2028 bid that evokes dread in the vast majority of Democratic operatives and donors. Why? Aidan McLaughlin spoke with more than two dozen of them to find out—and get a sense of her deliberations behind the scenes.
2/3 of the voters didn’t vote for Kamala and effectively voted, not voting is a vote, against their own interests. For many of them, it wasn’t about the policies or what her position was. It was because she was a minority woman.
If you don’t acknowledge the fact that many Americans are either misogynists, racists, or both, nothing will change.
Of course a giant chunk of people are bigots. They’re called trump voters, and anyone they’d elect is someone not worth electing.
The people we need are the ones who didn’t vote, and they overwhelming talk about specific policy issues with Kamala, they saw Trump as a non-starter because he’s a bigoted greedy piece of shit.

Non voters caused all the problems, and most people bitching on Lemmy/reddit did not vote.
Yeah that’s my point. If you run someone the non-voters want to vote for THEY’LL ACTUALLY GO OUT AND VOTE.
Its crazy what actually having a personal incentive to vote will do.
