But claiming that an issues-based revolution led by a white man should trump a phenomenal woman candidate who is on the same page, when we’ve NEVER had a woman president in this country, let alone one with this degree of awareness, b/c you don’t like identity politics?
NOPE.
NOPE.
And PS. these academic arguments don’t win elections for democrats, period.
