    It’s worked well when the candidates hasn’t been women because America, the democrats and leftists seem to have a big problem with women in power.

      Just like how supporting a genocide handed the election to fascists, your blinders say more about you than they do about reality.

        Nice pivot from the sexism found in the left.

        Biden and Harris ran a very similar campaign and it was okay when Biden ran it but not when a woman did.

        The genocides are all worse now.

          it was okay when Biden

          People were rightfully upset with Biden while he was in office. This is revisionism.

          “Worse” doesn’t mean that Biden didn’t kill a lot of innocent people and children. Also Biden has killed more Palestinians than Trump has. Not sure how he’s been worse.

          The problem you’re missing IS that they ran the same campaign… and WHAT happened in between those two elections? What happened, say, early October 2023 and as a result of? I’ll let you figure that one out for yourself.

          Harris would have won if she moved left of Biden, woman or not. It was very clear that’s what we needed and it’s very clear they ran away from you (the blue voter) in favor of Trump voters. Why you’d still fall for it years later is beyond me.

          Does anyone else remember Tim Walz, governor of my great home state, who is on record saying he loves Isreal btw, told JD Vance in a debate about a “preemptive strike on Iran”? Because I do.

          Hell, does anyone even remember during the state of the union Trump said he would invade Iran to “protect its sovereignty a after evil government killed a bajillion protesters” or something dumb like that and fucking ELIZABETH WARREN GAVE HIM A STANDING OVATION?!? because I remember.

          People don’t see war and genocide in terms of “bad and worse” because that’s how children think and behave. Genocide is bad and genocidal democrats don’t deserve power because you think they’re a little bit better than the genocidal republicans.

          Your view was the standard view in 2024/25, from corporate sources, and I think much of the population simply accepted that view, especially among liberals.

          But you’ve lost. And no one believes you or your sources in corporate media. Its clear that your ideology is bankrupt, so people have abandoned you.

          The hollowness and emptiness of your perspective is exactly why Hasan is ascendant, and you and your twins in corporate media are descendant.

          The pattern is AIPAC. Many of the people leveling these critiques against Harris or Clinton would support AOC running for president.

          Harris and Clinton are really unlikeable people. Using Clinton is not a good example. She’s a war criminal.

              I’m aware. I’m painfully aware.

              You’re using their gender to protect them when they don’t need protecting from their terrible policies and governance.

                Life would be a hundred times better for Americans right now with Harris’s ‘terrible’ policies.

                The genocides in Ukraine and Palestine would be better than they are now.

                USAID would still be in existence so there would be less kids with AIDS and other preventable illnesses.

                  I agree with you, but that doesn’t change anything. Harris ran a bad campaign and they fucked up running Biden again initially. Everyone soured on them when it was clear Harris was going to continue funding the genocide.

                  The Democratic party fucked up that election. Now we gotta make sure we hold them to their supposed morals so that they can possibly win moving forward or we elect more progressives who actually listen to their constituents instead of donors.
