No. I am not saying that, and I never said any such thing.
Politics 101. When there are over a dozen other well qualified candidates, the lesser known candidate has trouble raising necessary campaign funds, unless they are a billionaire and can finance their own campaign.
You all like to claim dems practice identity politics, well if that …

You all like to claim dems practice identity politics, well if that were true, she would have raised the most money in 2020 over all the other candidates! But, since she was not well known nationally , at that time, dems wanted to elect someone who was more certain to beat djt than an unknown candidate!
She did get onto the ticket as VP in 2020 and that ticket won!
Prior to you jumping in, I responded to a post which asserted that the reason why Harris lost was because she was a black woman. I logically asked if this was the same reason why she did so poorly in 2020?
And I explained to you that in 2020 she was not well known nationally, that is not the same as "doing poorly" especially since after she dropped out of the primaries she was selected to run as VP and they won, which is the opposite of "doing poorly."
Being forced to terminate her campaign for lack of support and funds is not doing well. So I am back to my question…if commenters suggest racism and sexism was blame, was it to blame in 2020?
If she had been well known nationally in 2020 and was a front runner or favorite to win, not raising enough funds and dropping out would have been doing poorly. But, that is not what happened. And the reason she had to drop out had zero to do with her gender or skin color. And the fact that she ran on the ticket in 2020 as VP and won, is not "doing poorly."
In 2024 She was known nationally and raised 1.4 BILLION dollars in just over a month, that is not "doing poorly."
I never said she lost in 2024 because of racism or gender. I responded to your completely false comment that she did not get dem votes, and came in 6th, in the 2020 primaries--when SHE WAS NOT EVEN ON A SINGLE PRIMARY BALLOT.
That you can not see the difference between being an unknown candidate and not raising enough campaign funds for a primary run, and a national presidential general campaign, with a completely different set of voters who have completely different prioritoes, is either sad, or you are just trolling.
I replied to a post asserting that Harris lost in 2024 due to racism and sexism. I challenged this by saying she did equally poor in 2020 for the same reasons. She was known nationally…Buttigieg was a. Mayor in Indiana but he did better. Harris name remained on the ballet because she received popular votes despite ending her campaign. I will restate that I do not believe Harris’ was due to racism or sexism because she was equally bad in 2020.
You said she came in 6th, lie. You said she did poorly in the primaries, lie, because she dropped out of the primaries before a single vote was cast. You are just making it all up to support some sort of narrative you want to be true. Sad. You want to believe the dems are as racist and misogynist as maga, sad.
Sorry, she did not drop out of the dem primaries in 2020 because of sexisim and racism, as her eventual nomination, and victory, as VP of the USA attests, and that she raised 1.4 billion dollars from dem contributions for the 2024 campaign shows.

What part of that don't you get?
