The country did vote for a white woman the previous time: Hillary Clinton won the popular vote.
So you're saying misogyny wasn't the reason they lost then?
I'm saying that more people voted for Hillary Clinton than her male opponent, which flatly contradicts the claim that people wouldn't vote for a woman. But let me ask the question: If the GOP nominated Kristi Noem as its candidate for president in 2028, would you rest assured that she couldn't win because of misogyny?
That is true, but I will add that most people I knew that voted for Hillary also did not like her.
The people will vote for women, but a disturbing amount are unhappy about it. I don't even like Hilary, but people were more biased against her than Biden for what feels like manufactured reasons to me.
The right wing propaganda machine had been at work on Hillary since even before Bill was elected President in '92, so that could certainly explain it.
