Former first lady Michelle Obama said at a recent event that the US isn’t ready for a woman president, pointing to former Vice President Kamala Harris’ unsuccessful bid for the White House last year.
I want to believe we could have a woman president so long as she ran on something other than being a wet noodle that’s trying to be #relatable more than just being a good candidate.
It’s funny, in 2015, I thought that that platform would be the only way a woman would be able to win over such a hard hurdle of all the conservative states with the electoral college we have.
The amount of people that looked past Donald Trump’s flaws or embraced his hateful rhetoric, and blamed their decision on their dislike for Hillary was huge.
I didn’t like her either. She wasn’t my favorite candidate by a long shot, but I still can’t believe our country is in a better place now than it would have been if she had won.
Also, it’s hard to believe that was ten years ago. Gross.

Or better yet, running on something more than
“Are you really gonna let Trump win?”
Elizabeth Warren’s “I think I’ll have a beer” will live rent free in my head forever as the prime example of clumsy pandering.

Damn. All this talk of conservatives being throat goats and we completely forgot how much Warren likes head.
