Comment on Every female Democrat presidential nominee has resulted in a Donald Trump presidency
haloduder@thelemmy.club 3 weeks agoI’d say it’s both.
Joe Biden didn’t care any more about the working class than hillary or kamala. They are all the same person, as far as the presidency is concerned.
Then their gender shouldn’t matter if we all understand they’re functionally the same and had a significant chance of losing anyways.
Blaming it on misogyny is exactly how Democrats ended up running the EXACT SAME cmapaign they already lost on against Turnip…
The blame is SOLELY on the DNC for offering nothing but vapid, “we’re not Trump” to the electorate. Period. They’re pathetic, willfully ignorant losers, and you’re choosing to join them in that ignorance by putting any of it on misogyny.
Dems are unable to perform accurate and meaningful reflection on their failures because….reasons. No, it must be the misogynists’ fault!
Meanwhile, we have a wildly popular and successful Dem candidate for NYC mayor who seeks to directly address the material living conditions of his constituents. Better spend hundreds of millions to fail at burying him with a smear campaign.
I swear, sometimes the only ones dumber than Repugs are the Dems.
The only reason Biden was able to eke out his narrow win was because we were in the midst of Trump’s utter failure to deal with Covid pandemic when the election happened. His promise to donors at the time was that “nothing would fundamentally change”. One of his few promises kept, it almost cost him the election because the non-incumbent candidate promising no change is virtually political suicide.
Kamala attempted to make a similar promise to her donors, and the country is now paying dearly for it.
The corrupt DNC are part of the problem, so yes, naturally lead to horrible outcomes like Trump presidencies.

Biden squeaked by while Trump was right in the middle of catastrophically fucking up the pandemic response. The notion that his gender had anything to do with his win is nothing but historical revisionism.
