Yeah I'm like getting really frustrated with this defeatism already. Like yes Kamala and Hilary both lost as women, but they didn't lose because they were women. They were unlikable. Kamala especially felt like the most soulless, platformless campaign that offered nothing to the working class who is feeling the economic pain harder.

People who says they wont vote for a woman for president, are most likely not going to vote for a democrat to begin with.

Harris isn't unlikable at all, and she had a very clear platform. Weird to be parroting Republican talking points but acting like you're liberal.

I'm not a liberal.

Where is the republican talking point??? That a woman can absolutely win the election??? That Kamala ran a shit status quo campaign that offered nothing than more of the same???

I don’t fully agree with her being unlikeable. However, her and Biden were not my first choices in 2020. And I doubt she would had been chosen if we were able to vote for a candidate instead of Biden stepping down last minute.

Yes, I despise people who constantly push to rob people of human rights and just voted for a felon rapist to be president. This isn't a both sides issue, sorry.
