I've literally brought up the false claims of election fraud and inciting a mob to invade the Capitol and I get laugh emojis. People think challenging our democracy is funny. The MAGAS duped America into believing the covid inflation was "Biden's" inflation. They told exaggerated stories of migrants receiving $15,000 debit cards and lied about Haitians eating pets. They fed into the country's racism, xenophobia, and transphobia. Half the country has forgotten the mess Trump left and blames Biden. All of this baggage and they passed over Kamala because they was no primary, she wasn't charismatic, etc. Apparently Hillary had too much baggage in 2016, it's all BS.

Looks like Indian and biracial women do not support Indian and biracial women.
Will you people stop with thw identity politics? This is why you continue to lose. Find a candidate with policies and ideas, like Obama. I voted for Nikki Haley in the primary and Trump in the election. I voted on policy, not looks or personality. I voted my wallet and safety (border). I will never ever vote for Michelle Obama and I will not vote for Pete Butigeig. Pick the best person instead of the one that checks superficial boxes. Pick someone normal who can put together a coherent sentence without having to memorize canned talking points.

But, even if you gave her credit for being qualified due to experience, I knew we would not select a woman over a white man even after after all he did/has done. Trump has managed to get a pass on all the vile language, behaviour, being a felon, failed business person and trying to overthrow our government and they all act like its a nothing burger. We could never run a candidate with this many flaws on the Dem side and fall all over ourselves to vote for them. Can't make this $hit up.
We need to stop running woman though because they are simply not electable at this moment in time regardless of how experienced they are.
Kamala had a better resume than Obama ran. How is that not sexist?
As Hillary Clinton proved, resumes are meaningless. To get the presidency you have to appeal to voters. Harris was uncomfortable and she telegraphed that to voters. The worst thing you can do is show a lack of confidence and that is what she did.

Why her advisors insisted on limiting her exposure and keeping her away from cameras like they did except for a few curated (and disastrous) appearances, I’ll never understand.
Because Wednesday Kamala was a refreshing change. She was carefree. Stress free. She didn’t speak haltingly, walking on eggshells. That Kamala would’ve won.
I’m glad she listened to her advisors. But I’m also sad for her, that we didn’t see her “real” self, until Wednesday.
Such is life.

Why I lost? I just said I lean conservative even though I voted against Trump. I also didn't say I thought all Latino's were the same, though I did mistakenly assume a majority would vote to protect friends, family, neighbors, etc. But, I'm not in that community and I'm also not a political strategist so it isn't my job to know. Just made an incorrect assumption. Not sure why you feel the need to throw names around.

But what really stands out is: how could anyone vote for trump because of how terrible he is??
Didn’t people know about the things he’s said?
