Please don’t overthink this result. America is a fundamentally racist country and white people overwhelmingly rejected a Black/Asian woman.

More critically America is a deeply misogynistic country and so this time white people were helped by Latino and Black men in defeating an immensely qualified woman.

The only thing that trump ran on was hatred of people of color and diminishment of women. And it worked.

No other issues really mattered.

I'm sorry to say I'm not that surprised by the election results. Harris had three strikes against her: 1) she is a women, 2) she is a person of color, and 3) she didn't distance herself from Biden's Gaza policies. I think 1) and 2) were probably more important than 3) in determining the outcome. Those of us who understand what Trump represents need to network, get organized, and fight like hell against what's coming our way!!
