    Being a poor candidate who is merely tolerated and not appreciated does not automatically cause you to lose. Most people also merely tolerated Biden and many swing voters in 2024 thought they would tolerate Trump despite his fascist tendencies.

    It is the combination of being both a poor candidate and being a woman and being a minority that is lethal to a presidential campaign.

      Quite off base. It is running as the status quo that was the deciding factor, the fact that you don’t know that yet does not speak well to your understanding.
