Harris had a great campaign. Her promises were sane and humane. I never had to hold my nose. Protest votes or no voting hurt us. Misinformation hurt us. Foreign interference hurt us. Misogyny and bigotry hurt us.

It is insane to say Harris ran a great campaign. She was given every opportunity to separate herself from Biden and chose not to. She ran as the flag bearer for the status quo when the only reason she was in the race was because status quo was historically unpopular. Like, be serious for a moment.
She didn't have a great campaign. She refused to meet with Palestinian activists to discuss her plans for ending the conflict, she went to the right on immigration, abandoned trans people entirely, made vague campaign promises, and otherwise ran a very center/center-right campaign.
She told the Palestinian protesters that she wanted peace for them and for them to have their home back in a two-state solution. What did Trump promise them? Nothing
Do you understand that Biden was saying? He wanted a ceasefire while he was funding the Israeli genocide and their invasion of two neighboring countries
Yes, and would she have done the same? Perhaps. But what would have you done that would have changed the outcome of the election and what would be happening in Gaza? It’s easy to say things, it’s another to do. Making everyone happy is impossible. Ultimately, it was up to Israel and still is.
Bidens of the same thing about a two state solution
The palestinians said that there was nothing Trump could do. That was worse than what biden was doing and that they could possibly make a deal with him due to his business ties with the Saudis
Well, let's see what do you think is worse? Having a bomb dropped on your baby's head. Or being evicted with the baby
🤔
Not that I endorse either options. I don't think trump's statement is what's going to happen
There's nowhere for them to go. None of these countries will take them
Biden tried
She also told the Palestinian activists that her campaign would meet with them (she didn't, and stopped responding to any communication from them), and the DNC said they would let them speak (they didnt). Liberals were always hostile towards Palestinians yet felt entitled to their votes.
If you read her campaign website you would have seen very detailed information about how she would have implemented her policies. Only so much could be done with sound bites and social media platforms. Did interviews and all people could say was that she needs to say even more. Trump said gibberish
Fuck all the way off. She had plenty of opportunities to lay out her policies in no uncertain terms. Should've spent less time with the Cheney's and avoiding interviews 🤷. It's obvious that you people are incapable of learning your lesson. Please go form your own party and let adults go to work.
Comments like these are why Democrats lose so many elections. Disregard valid concerns about the party's behavior towards their constituents, loftily gaslight them instead.
People like you love to use vulnerable groups to pretend that you give a fuck, but you don't. You self-interested jackasses willfully and gleefully block progress, then have the unmitigated arrogance to talk down to the rest of us. The Gazans fate is on you and all of your subhuman associates.
Real talk.... A great campaign ends in a victory. Harris lost ground in almost every category. And, was still more popular than Biden. They could've run a candidate that was not associated with an unpopular administration, which had already shown its impotence on standing against genocide.
Cory Booker, Tina Fey, Stacey Abrams, A paper bag.... Any of them might've had a better chance.
Honestly, just anyone who was willing to say that the current administration was wrong. Someone that called them out on Palestine, and vigilantly promised to be different.

It wasn't massaged in bigotry. I love how you guys are always like to point a things that are not quantifiable
We know why she lost. She lost because of Gaza the voters who voted for Biden. And didn't vote for her told us why
Gaza n the economy

This is a fact israel depends on us to exist
The palestinians said that there was nothing Trump could do. That was worse than what biden was doing and that they could possibly make a deal with him due to his business ties with the Saudis
This isn't over yet
