These people wouldn't have come out for Kamala.
She was a "colored" woman... IMO the US still has a problem.
The Israeli deliver-the-shit-they-got-80-years-ago-and-all-politicians-are-blind-to-it thing was only icing on the we-want-the-good-ole-boyz cake.
The issue with Harris is that its both.
Obviously there's the sexism/racism component which is gross, and shouldn't fucking be a thing.
But she's also a genocide supporting, hard-line law-and-order DA. So a lot of people are refusing to vote at all over that.
Would've loved to see AOC run, though I don't know if she had hit 35 in time yet.
But both candidates were pro-genocide... that wasn't a differentiating issue.
Notice how I said they didn't vote, not they voted for trump.
And, I say this as someone who voted for Harris:
Not voting is a vote for the candidate you like the least, but most people who made that decision weren't actively thinking that, and to pretend they where is in extremely bad faith.
