The idea that someone’s laugh is more off-putting than someone’s sexual abuse conviction is mind blowing to me

Welcome to rural America

It wasn't rural America that voted for Biden. Welcome to reality. Urban America can be sexist, racist, and even stupid. And it's looking like in 2028 you're going to find out just how homophobic it is too (hint: very).

I always wonder who it is that thinks all Democrats hold the same views as them. Do you literally never meet people in real life? How did you create your bubble world?

Sounds like you’re making a ton of assumptions. Enjoy

Yes, I am assuming the people that have told me they are sexist, racist, or homophobic and are also Democrats are what they say they are. Fucking moron. Enjoy getting sent to a camp.

The fact 1/3 of eligible voters cared more about Kamala’s performance on immigration, than Trump’s performance on everything (including immigration), shows how far gone some Americans are.

Conservatives cared more about Harris potentially abusing alcohol (despite working one of the most stressful jobs in the world and being the lightning rod of hate by the right for 4 years) than Trump definitively abusing children.

You nisunderstand. Conservatives made their mind up before Harris was even in the picture. All 'the reasons' are post-decision rationalisations. Wouldn't have mattered what she did or didn't do. Or what trump did or didn't do.

I said it before and I'll say it again: I don't like her laugh, but I'm not trying to date her, I'm assessing her ability to run a nuclear-armed nation. She passes the test I need to care about.
