I voted for her but this is such a dumb, reductive take
The problem with her messaging was that none of it was actually catered to the working class. Racists weren’t voting dem anyway yet they still tried to appeal to the right.
I blame the people who didn’t vote for electing Trump but I also get it. Harris was more of the same in a time we need actual change.
She would have won if the past 8 years hadn’t made people so fuckin apathetic but instead of riling people up with policy promises, the campaign focused on how bad a second Trump presidency would be…that might have taken away votes for him but it sure as hell didn’t motivate people to vote FOR her.
One of the best things I can say about the campaign is that I appreciated the lack of the Girl Power messaging that was so prevalent with Hilary Clinton. It’s a selling point to very few people since women tend to care more about the POLICY after so many Republican policies have targeted them
They like his Supreme Court nominees, his support of abortion policy chaos with bans in some states threatening prison time for doctors and patients, his policy for separating migrant children from their parents, they seem to really love his removed grabbing policy especially, and his offer to protect them whether they like or not, and I WISH I was trying to be funny here, but this is all literally true. White women love Trump.

Clearly the case with white women – 52% of whom voted for Trump in 2016. He got 53% of white women this year.
