In the hunt for a scapegoat, some are arguing that there’s been too much focus from Democrats on transgender rights. There’s no evidence backing that up.

They could have won this by… doing exactly what they did? Brilliant! Like, where/when did you see the campaign focus on trans rights rather than the economy? I mean, I didn’t think her economic plan was all that, but at least I heard about it… I only heard about trans anything from the right, and it certainly wasn’t them campaigning on trans rights! Do you really think the Democratic presidential campaign was just Democrats talking to themselves about trans rights? I’m dying to know what media you consume!
You know what? I don’t think you have any idea about what Harris ran on, though it sounds like you’re aware of the FOX news caricature of her campaign. Which, honestly, puts you in probably about the same place as the average American voter.
You are right about the need to reach non-voters, but I’d include never-voters. Personally, I think the addiction to fat-cat money is the biggest obstacle to attracting old and new voters. I reckon it’s not easy to want to fix problems that major donors don’t want fixed.
