    Why would she lose?

    The normies would project whatever fantasy they want onto her, and she’s hot so it could be positive delusions.

      Why would she lose?

      I mean, there is no way she would get through the primaries. The party would disband before running a progressive for president.

        Everyone says that can’t happen until it happens. We’re getting very close to the era of millennial dominance

      She’s also brown, a liberal, and from New York. Even if she had the cure for cancer White America would rather crucify themselves than let her become president.

        See, this is why I don’t buy the “Harris lost because she’s a woman of color” crap. Centrists don’t want to admit that moving to the right has hit a wall, and it has the added bonus of being an excuse to shut out AOC.

          She didn’t, we know why she lost. The number one issue in polling was the economy and she didn’t convince people she was better on the issue. It turns out that saying nothing will change while homelessness is at a record high (since the Great Depression), and groceries have double or tripled in prices in a couple years is not a winning message with the working class.

            Well, now we’ll all get to find out what happens when someone fucks it up as hard as possible instead of just doing nothing.
