    yea! because it wasn’t betrayal of the left base, and kowtowing to the establishment, or the botched run for president or the scandals. it was because she was a woman, right.

    getting real sick of these garbage people

      America isn’t mature enough to elect a female president

      Add to this at the next election the republicans will have CBS,CNN,Fox, all the social media platforms, all the AI platforms

      It won’t just be this person and their ideas versus the other guys it will be that guy plus social media, AI and the news networks

      It’s almost an impossible task

      America isn’t going to swing from an extreme right wing government to a liberal female democrat no matter how much you want it to or even whether it’s time or whether it’s the right thing

      The goal has to be to win an election

      Or you get four years of Peter theils marionette and palantir running every aspect of the us government

        same thing was said by racists about a black president. turns out if you field a not shit candidate it doesn’t matter. Harris polled to win against trump, so she has the numbers to possibly win by all counts. too bad she snatched failure from the jaws of victory.

        i am so sick of people pretending that the loss was because of the candidates gender when they ran a terrible candidate after dragging their feet on joe biden after knowing he was incompetent, at the fourth quarter, skipping a primary, backing both an unpopular genocide, and pushing connections with the establishment. i don’t think there was much she could have done worse. and yet she almost won.

        Bingo.

        The goal has to be to win an election

        Yup. You don’t win elections on idealism alone. If you did, Bernie Sanders would probably be president right now.

        Or you get four years of Peter theils marionette and palantir running every aspect of the us government

        DING DING. There’s WAY too much at stake to keep swinging and missing.

      If you don’t think a SIGNIFICANT number of people in this country simply won’t vote for a woman, especially in the geographical areas that matter, you don’t understand the country you live in or how presidential elections work.
