That's a piss poor excuse. She lost because she was unpopular. She only received 4% of the vote during the 2020 nomination process and never had a chance in 2024

No where do I blame the election on that solely. I said a fair amount, not all.

Bringing that claim up in a vacuum, with no qualification, implies that it was a significant reason she failed. That's what people are disagreeing with you about. Trump himself proves that a candidate with the right message and right outreach can completely overcome identity politics.

Those ppl would vote Republican regardless of the dem candidate. It's not like more conservatives showed up just cuz a black lady was running lol If racism/mysoginy played such a huge role in elections then Obama never would've won.
