Crazy idea, maybe the US isn't ready for another liberal to talk down to us and do absolutely nothing. Maybe its time for real change from a real progressive.
She's not wrong though. Put AOC on the ballot and there will still be a lot of people not voting for the women. You hear it mostly from sexists men, but there are also some women I know that think that. Though these same women, and some men, are also ones that say "I don't care about politics, it doesn't affect me.... why is everything so expensive."
According to post-election polls, Harris would've won the election if she had supported a ceasefire in Gaza, so she absolutely is wrong. I haven't seen anything that substantiates the "it's because she's a woman" theory but liberals seem to insist on pushing it.
They're trying to distract from how establishment democrats refuse to raise taxes for the ruling class.
And it's working.
establish democrats are part of the ruling class. nobody votes to raise taxes on themselves.
And how many people would vote for her because she's a woman? There were plenty of people who voted for Hillary for that very reason.
Those peoples votes are in the areas that don't elect presidents though.
I wouldn't be so sure about that. Swing states exist because there are a mix of People with different political opinions voting there. And that (unfortunately) is also true when it comes to identity politics.
I did not vote for Clinton or Harris.
I would vote for AOC.
