    Highly qualified centrist women… This “iT wAs SeXiSm” take is trite and frankly fucking boring at this point. Maybe we should run an actual leftist brown woman to isolate the variables?

      Hell Warren would have done better than Harris. Harris was just a trash candidate who came in like 10th in the 2020 primaries behind other women and people of color.

        If you remember the 2020 primary, the “can a woman really win” questions really ramped when Warren was briefly leading, not when Harris looked like she was the hot up and comer. There’s nothing legitimate behind these concern trolling campaigns, just establishment centrists showing how similar to Republicans they really are.

      I’m sorry the reality of the country you live in hasn’t set in yet.

      Hey, it worked the last time we tried running an actual leftist who was a WHITE MALE who every leftist adored. Oh wait, he lost the primary popular vote both times and never had a real shot at the presidency. Oops.

        Sanders got ratfucked in the primary and still managed to crush Hillary in much of the Rust Belt, the exact places where she lost to Trump in the general. Fuck your revisionist nonsense.
