SO qualified she lost the easiest election ever.
I think in theory it was an easy election but I don't think for her it was. There is a huge well of racism and sexism in america that makes anyone not white male to run for the highest office and harder for each deviation from it. Biden holding past any primaries does take away from promoting democracy.
But her and the dems dropped the ball hard. They shut down the working weird rhetoric. They worked towards the right, a competition they would never win. They failed to create an image of enough change and hope to climb the cliff of bigotry she started at the bottom of.
All she had to do was promise to pull the US out of doing a genocide. Heck, she could have simply shown some pushback to Joe. But nope. She’s a zionist so…
She could have even rationalized it as the "lesser evil" to tell a campaign lie to get elected. Pragmatic. Adults in room stuff. Every electoralism lib would have defended that until they were blue in the face.
But that was too big of an ask. Incredible moment. 99% Hitler couldn't even lie about being 98% Hitler to beat 100% Hitler.
