Clearly racism and misogyny plays some role in it, but Harris/SomeGuyIForgot was short something like 6 million votes of Biden/Harris. This liberal talking point is one of the most frustrating because it is also exactly what trump says when shit is obviously not perfect.
Even 2012 Obama only lost ~4M votes compared to 2008 Obama. Dems are becoming more and more disillusioned as time goes on, which should be a good thing except in the Burgereich it means they get more fascist because one time a communist corrected them on twitter about some historical fact
It was more like 12 million lol. Also imo you'd expect all of the people who were too racist/misogynist to vote for Harris to flip to Trump (how many are going to go to Jill Stein?), and he only gained ~3 million, so that's 9 million people who just stayed home.
Obviously this is cope about how a combination of support for genocide abroad and neoliberal policies at home likely cost them the election.
The initial returns were low, but Harris got 75 million on the final tally out of 152 million final votes vs 2020 when Biden got 81 million votes out of 155 million.
So there was a drop off but it's not as a big as it was initially reported.

I wanted to say Tim Cain but I know that's wrong, but like...it's not really wrong
I think that was the Clinton pick IIRC and this one was someone Walz?
"Yo soy Tim Cain" lives free in my head it's the only reason I remember him
Didn't someone do a "Tim Cain in the membrane" parody song?
Haven’t heard his name since everyone immediately forgot his existence the nanosecond Trump won
Didn't help that they were trying to shuffle him out even before the election to advertise Liz Cheney instead.
Future Democratic President Liz Cheney with Vice President...uh, one of W's kids?
Walzed right out of our minds, some might say

Good to know, thanks for the correction.
