Yep. White women have made it known they will not vote for a woman president. More white women voted for a sexual predator than Hillary. |

1981–Carter-Regan. She was old enough to vote then. |

So this is the prob with most people. Holding office is very different than looking at the results of that experience. You can be put into many situations but if your record shows faults, it's with examining and analyzing to see if it's the person in charge or out of their control issues. In her case, she has a pattern of scary and controversial actions esp as CA AG. I would also not suggest she's been awesome being VP. Just because you can tack on the titles does not mean she's been good doing the work. There's a huge difference in being effective and holding office and serious questions on her performance overall. Again, you can put a bandaid on it and I get that there's not much else you can do currently than this but let's all not put our heads in the sand and pretend she is the best we have of all time to be POTUS! I'm a diversity female so I also get how thrilling it is that she's different and exciting but it does not make her better or good. It simply makes her different. I wish people were less emotional. Yes Trump is terrible but it's so important to not misconstrue a candidate as a better one v different one. Kamala is different but not actually better in all the ways an effective POTUS would be. I disagreed a lot with Obama esp in foreign policy as a Dem but I respect him as someone truly effective in his time. He had the intellect, character and ability to lead in a way Kamala does not. For me, he's awesome. Not because I agreed with him on everything but because I respected him. I do not respect Kamala. If you've seen her in action, I'm not sure how you disagree! |

| I don’t know a ton about politics, but I think what sets Kamala apart from Hilary is 1) her husband hasn’t already been president for two terms so she’s fresh and 2) Trump really screwed women over with regard to repealing Roe v Wade and women want their rights back. |

They opened the floodgates and a huge wave of migrants came in crossing farmland https://www.agriculturedive.com/news/farm-immigration-border-crossings-food-safety-oped/703265/ Many migrants making their way through the U.S. trespass onto farmland, creating a number of safety concerns and forcing farmers to take on additional costs to protect their operations. Every intrusion must be carefully documented, and farmers have to destroy any crops around areas where illegal trespassing occurred to prevent contamination. To prevent such intrusions, farmers have purchased expensive fencing to prevent people from entering their fields and technology to increase electronic field monitoring. They’ve also invested in no trespassing signage in English and Spanish, plus dumpsters and bathrooms for immigrants to use to keep the fields safe. Yuma County Emergency Management, for example, has budgeted $70,000 to lease port-a-potties. At a congressional hearing this year, Arizona farmers and others detailed costs in the tens of thousands to replace fences, pick up litter and install signage. But fields aren’t the only safety concern. Increased cartel activity along the border has also made it necessary for Yuma farmers to implement additional safety measures and training, with some paying for additional labor to eliminate the danger posed to lone workers. Migrants themselves are also at risk, and could be harmed by large farm equipment or the effects of pesticide or fertilizer application. This border crisis is costing farmers and ranchers a fortune, as illegal immigrants leave property damage, piles of trash, and damaged crops in their wake. These people must often spend their hard-earned money to secure their farms and ranches from the devastating consequences of Biden's border crisis. |

It's sad that I can't get my hopes up. |

The reason fast food has gone up is because the USDA had to transfer grain for fast food animals due to grocery stores instead due to the global grain shortage and food crisis caused by the war in Ukraine .
Not only was this administration horrific for food prices here but a global food and energy crisis is linked to this disaster of an administration. Donald Trump couldn’t return fast enough to fix all of these messes |

Polls are inconsequential. Look at the real numbers of grassroots donations, first time donors and voter registration since yesterday (yes some of those registering could be R but it doesn't make sense with the timeline.) I can say anecdotally I've been making calls for Biden-Harris for a month and yesterday was the first days since Biden's decision not to run. The excitement was incredible and lots of folks signed up to volunteer. |

Especially when you consider that most women I know with two kids also had at least one miscarriage. And it’s 1-2% chance per pregnancy, not per women in her life. 1-2% X3 pregnancies. Is a 5% chance over your reproductive life rare? You okay with a 5% chance it’s your daughter. |
