He then ends up suggesting the reason they don’t like Harris is because she’s a woman -

“Because part of it makes me think – and I’m speaking to men directly – part of it makes me think that, well, you just aren’t feeling the idea of having a woman as president, and you’re coming up with other alternatives and other reasons for that.”

    Hillary lost because she openly mocked and derided the people she needed to vote for her, marginalized people who had real needs that weren’t being met by her policy proposals and who were urging her to take more progressive stances.

    so you would rather we fall to the Nazis

    Better to fall to the nazis fighting them than welcome them to the table. Fuck the Cheney’s, and fuck the democrats for proudly welcoming them into their coalition and then condescending to voters who rightfully see them as war-mongering demons.

    Democrats will lose if they keep daring people not to vote for them rather than addressing the interests of their constituents. It is the single worst campaign strategy I’ve ever seen, and it amazes me that it isn’t even the first time they’ve decided to fuck themselves in the ass with it.

      I heard a commentator yesterday state: “Democrats can not fail; they can only “be failed” by their voters.”

      Its always “the voters” who are to blame when Democrats fail. I’m not interested in voting for the party of Cheney; I’m not interested in voting for a pro-genocide party. And maybe I’ll be able to suck it up enough to as so many would have you believe, “do the right thing”, as if voting for a pro-genoicde, pro-buisness, now also neo-conservative party is really that. But what really matters is that there are people far more who are better than I, who simply won’t vote in favor of a genocide. But yeah Obama. Keep telling the voters its their fault.

        Democrats will tell you that nothing can change in FPTP voting, and in then spend 100% of their time every 2 years directing their efforts towards a FPTP election system.

        I swear to god, electoralism is sisyphus’ fucking boulder, and libs are completely convinced that if they push that damned thing up the mountain just a few more times they’ll finally escape the task

        It’s amazing how one country committing genocide on another 6,000 miles away from the US is the fault of the Democrats.

        The moment I hear anyone talk about genocide when referring to the US elections, I write them off as a useful idiot or Russian troll.

          Glad to know that Ukrainians getting murdered by Republican polices isn’t enough for you. China killing Uyghurs? Not important for this dude. Moral consistency is for suckers!

          That’s how you sound right now. Murder is bad, and I am opposed to it whenever its happening. Be it neighbors, countries, systemic, or individual. Sorry that being aginast to my tax dollars going to helping people be free from harm and helping people live better lives is somehow too much of a “single issue”.
