Younger men threw their support behind Donald Trump in 2024 after favoring Biden in 2020
The United States is still not ready for a female president after more than a century of unsuccessful campaigns for the White House, according to former First Lady Michelle Obama.
“As we saw in this past election, sadly, we ain’t ready,” Obama said earlier this month in a live conversation with actor Tracee Ellis Ross that was published Friday.
“That’s why I’m like, don’t even look at me about running, because you all are lying,” she said. “You’re not ready for a woman. You are not. So don’t waste my time.”
Why do you think that is? Might it be that strategists are reading the room (the country)? Nah, it couldn’t be…
Is that a serious question? Are we going to ignore the DNC shenanigans around Hillary / Bernie?
I guess we can ignore each of the instances where there was a woman on the POTUS / VPOTUS ticket. Got it.
Because men had a 120 year head start at electoral politics. More time, more opportunities, more generations of fathers training their sons to be politicians than mothers training their daughters.
Hillary out-muscled Bernie the old fashioned way. You’d have an easier time arguing Obama pulled the rug out from under Hillary (re: Michigan). At least that was a close race.
You’re ignoring all the instances where there wasn’t. You think LBJ would have lost to Goldwater if Humphrey had tits? Or that Reagan needed Bush’s dick to crush Mondale by 20 points? Do you think Obama needed to be a man to win, when he was already playing with the biggest handicap in national politics?
Put your name on the ballot and, statically speaking, your gender simply does not matter.
You should read more about Political Science, you’d understand a lot more and you wouldn’t have to pull made up numbers from your ass.
