Not ‘totally’ but at least partly. I know too many centrist moms that pulled Trumps way over the trans topic that would have swung Harris over reproductive rights.

I wonder how many didn’t want VP Harris to be the first? They may never see a first, others may sit out, because those that are being targeted by this administration, won’t forget…just saying.
You are missing the point. Dems/republicans….it doesn’t matter. The center represents the larger population. Small issues like this can have a greater impact than you would think. NOT recognizing that dooms the Dems to repeat this mistake or whatever you want to call it.
You aren't being honest and are changing the topic.
If those issues are small, then why are folks on the right making such a deal out of them? Because I literally never hear about them until some maga dipshit posts a meme mocking lgbtq people... curiously because of their hair dye.
Well said, and exactly what I wanted to say. Democrats didn't make a big deal out of it. Conservatives wouldn't stop saying Dems were making a big deal out of it, and people blindly believed it.
Do they? Seems to me, that the only folks bringing up the topic in public are folks who never seem able to describe DEI honestly nor explain why having all Americans included is a bad thing.
Those aren't Dems in my experience.
I don't think ANYONE disagrees with being inclusive. At issue is how people feel when being told they are (1) the opressor just because of the color of their skin and (2) others are special, not you.
You shared an opinion piece, but you're posing that it's hard-fact. Why? The author makes very little attempt to even convey Jeffries words in the first paragraph. They barely paraphrase, and clearly ignore most of what Jeffries even said. That's not exactly being honest, right?

Or did you observe assholes turning it into an issue so they can later claim this is why the election was lost.
I know what I saw, bud, are you going to be honest?

They give no shits about the common workers losing their jobs because "tHeY dIdNt VoTe FoR uS"
I regret my democratic vote for that reason
Those aren't Dems in my experience.

Which of diversity, equity, or inclusion do you have a problem with?
Which practice of DEI do you have a problem with?
You are parroting MAGA nonsense, back it up with your own thoughts.
