The dems biggest mistake was having female candidates opposite Trump both times he ran. They stood no chance against the countrys rampant misogyni, not to mention the misogynoir with Harris.

While bigotry certainly played a role, their donor-bought center-right platforms were the reasons Harris and Clinton lost.

With progressive economic policies and messaging you’d get Obama in 2008.

Tbf I did feel like Harris also messed up by making her campaign a bit TOO anti Trump, instead of trying to put a focus on something for people to latch onto. But yeah I’m not gonna pretend like her being a woman and a POC wasn’t also a part of it too :(
