The American left: I won’t vote for an old white man! We want change!
“Ok he’s gone, here’s an educated, youthful black woman”
The American left: ew, not like that!
(No need to reply I’ve heard all the excuses you’ve all made to explain why the black lady is hitler and just as bad as trump, by the way those excuses like typical Americans, focus on other countries and what they’re up to, instead of fixing your own damn country)
Idk I think many Americans are that shallow but I think the majority don't care about skin color or gender. I think she would have won if the Dems hadn't tightened the leash and let her run a more progressive campaign instead of forcing her to go into lock step with Biden and campaigning with Cheney.
I don't think Harris was progressive at all. She seemed disingenuous, media-trained to be as uncontroversial as possible, and every talking point focus tested. Her major economic policy was to give more money to business owners. I think Waltz is somewhat progressive, and they did put a leash on him. I agree she would've won if she was more progressive, especially if she focused on policies benefiting labor.
