    She’s running against arguably the worst candidate in American history and it’s still a dead heat, what does that tell you?

      You could have a removedroach running against a smoked cigarette that’s been hydrating in a coffee cup for a week and as long as the removedroach was a Democrat and the cigarette were a republican, it would still be a dead heat.

      He might be the best candidate for hateful idiots though. The guy’s a chud whisperer. I’m not sure if any smarter more articulate Republican could hold together the same radical coalition.

      Harris must be a nasty woman like Hillary Clinton. It can’t be because the other side has been propagandized until it went nuts.

          I’m guessing they were being sarcastic. Unfortunately a lot of people have yet to realize sarcasm is anything but obvious online, at least not in this day and age.

            I think I understood their sarcasm. They think I’m engaging in misogynistic tendencies and do actually think Trump voters are “nuts”.

              For the record, I don’t know if you personally judge Harris as a woman. I have no reason to think that’s true, and I don’t know if you hate Hillary, let alone your reason if you do.

              But I think a lot of the hate for Hillary was misogynist, and many people made the argument that if Trump is awful, Hillary must have been worse to lose.

                I think I understood the first paragraph before your comment but thank you for the clarification. And I do generally agree with your second paragraph as well. I do think it’s a bit reductive and is often used to draw attention from the more substantial reasons.

                Also deciding people are nuts is a great way to alienate and isolate them which will only entrench those ideas and can further radicalize them.
