Or maybe she wasn't a good candidate to begin with. She wasn't even nominated, so we don't know how a true, democratically elected, candidate would have performed.

There are like two of those people, not enough to be the driving factor behind Kamala losing.

If you think she lost because she is a black woman, then you are ignoring a lot of other factors that are far more significant. It won't help anything to focus on that single aspect of her candidacy.

Trump claims to be all about states rights, so California should have no issues. I guess we will find out.

It's been an endless stream of reports of scandal and cruelty since 2016. How could you not get desensitized? The alternative would be to go insane.

Women got the right to vote in 1920, but it wasn't until 1968 that minority women were allowed to vote, and 1990 when the Americans with disabilities act passed. Crazy to me how people can look past monumental changes like that.

Wait, do you think that the united states is less progressive than it was 10 years ago? How about 20 years ago? 30?

I don't think it's exactly a matter of appealing to progressives, but an inherent difficulty in trying to appeal to a wide variety of people with a wide variety of interests. You end up having to make vague promises in order not to offend anyone, which comes across as being boring or disingenuous, like you are only saying stuff in order to get elected and not because you actually belive in it. Conservatives can have much simpler and more straightforward messaging because their base is much more homogeneous.

I know who my wife is voting for, but even if she voted differently, I would love her the same. It would hurt if she lied about it though, because it would imply a lack of trust.

Yeah it's in the toothpaste, but is also in the city water. Problem is there are many cities with way more than the recommended limits. It's one of those situations where the fringe weirdos may actually have had a point.

That's an absolutely trash take about adopted kids. Get out of here

Dang, Trump is now a threat to all of life on earth? Man you gotta settle down with the rhetoric.
