Don’t forget immigrants who hate immigrants.
Also, there were plenty of people who were never going to vote for a woman, no matter what.

Then maybe don’t force a woman onto the ballot in “the most important election of our lifetime”. I’m all for progress, but you don’t win elections by forcing ideals upon people who won’t have them, and if this was truly the most important election of our lifetime, then the Democrats should have fielded their most appealing candidate.

Yeah if the DNC really gave as much credence to the vote power of racism and misogyny as they do after election losses, then why would they deliberately step on that landmine by selecting kamala only 8 years after HRC? It’s not like we think idealistic dreamers run the DNC right? That’s silly

If that’s why Kamala lost, then explain why Tammy Baldwin is winning Wisconsin and Elissa Slotkin is winning in Michigan.

Plenty of people will also never vote for a black man, but that worked spectacularly for the Democrats the first time.
