I'm listening to the postmortems on cable television and they all stink. We didn't lose because we're too woke. We didn't lose because we don't hate trans people. We didn't lose because we don't know how to speak to this group or that group. We didn't lose because Kamala is Black or a woman though misogyny, paternalism, and racism are still very much alive. We lost because 60% of Americans disapproved of the current administration and 70% of Americans felt the country was on the wrong track. We lost because people thought eggs cost too damn much. If Americans were happy with the economy and the direction of the country they would vote for a a Martian if they felt the Martian was responsible for it. In closing I thought Joe Biden did a good job but my opinion isn't dispositive.
