    I don’t need any more evidence.

    There is already enough circumstantial evidence against him. If I was on the jury I know how I would vote.

                He’s not wrong though: 30% decided a rapist is better than a woman, 30% decided rapists and women are equally bad and they don‘t give a shit who wins.

                    Bullshit.

                    Obama, Clinton, and Harris all received about the same number of votes. Trump received about the same number of votes all three times. The only anomaly was Biden getting a ton more votes.

                    Either Biden got all those extra votes because he’s a white man, or Biden got all those votes because a bunch of people who don’t normally vote decided Trump’s handling of Covid was dangerous. If it is the second, then all those extra people who don’t normally vote made a choice that Trump was good enough now that Covid was over. They made a choice. They decided. If it is the first option, then the point still stands that voters decided a rapist white man is better than a woman.

          For the 5900098325893th time, Harris lost because of her platform, not her gender.

            Just a reminder, Trump won election against 2 well-qualified women and 0 men. The platform of the meh man who beat him was not essentially different from that of either woman.

            And yet, 5900098325894 times, some guy on the Internet has insisted sexism had nothing to do with it.

            No matter how many times you say it, it doesn’t make it true. When a woman runs against a known rapist, felon, racist con man and loses (twice!) yet a borderline demented white man wins (with essentially the same platform), it is much more likely that voters are misogynists than “because of her platform”.

              Biden only managed to win because of how Trump fucked up COVID. But since voters have goldfish memories, it didn’t hurt him again four years later.

          Well in fairness, the first time a woman lost to him he hadn’t been adjucated to be a rapist yet…
