    I think that American society is still much more misogynist and racist than we realize. I don’t like it, but I think that if the Dems had done most everything exactly the same except had given the nomination to a straight, white male, then Trump would not have won. Between this and GOP vote stealing, that is how Trump won. Otherwise, the dumpster fire that was Trump’s first admin would have guaranteed that he lost in 2024. I don’t know what else explains it except some combination of misogyny, racism, and vote-counting shenanigans.
