I’ve often assumed Harris didn’t want to insult her boss by going against him, because I got the impression she was planning to give Netanyahu what for once she took over - especially with him escalating things further and further. Did anyone else get that vibe, or was it just wishful thinking on my part?

    I am a huge AOC fan and always have been, but after this election, I’m not voting for women in the primaries. Tens of millions of people just made up excuses to stay home. The media will obsess over any flaw, whether it exists or not, and people will fixate on it.

    Maybe AOC will be the first woman president, but it’ll take America 20 years at least to change their tune on the issue.

      Ok but I think that is the literal definition of bigotry, even if you seem to be implying that you’re just responding to other people’s bigotry.

        They’re not misogynist, they’re just preemptively implementing what the misogynists want. For practicality you see. That’s entirely different.

      The entire democratic party lost. The house, the senate. Everything. Virtually every voting demographic (except one), and women voted less than during 2016 and 2020.

      This sweeping 2024 loss across all areas is not because Kamala is female.
