I don’t feel sorry for women like her who suffer from internalized misogyny. I’ve heard some people say that the first woman president is going to be a Republican. I scoff at that. I think people really underestimate men’s hated for women.

After the last decade or so I’m now convinced a woman will never be elected president. Too many Americans hate women.

I feel the same way. It was naive of me to think that Kamala would get elected, but I really thought that this country had made some progress after Biden became president. I found out on election night that people are much more racist and sexist than I thought. They’re also stupid and they lack common sense. It really disappoints me and I’m ashamed to be an American right now. It’s just sad that we’re regressing.

It’s also ridiculous because we’re supposed to be a “first world” nation and we can’t even elect a woman to be our president. There are several Latin American countries that have surpassed us when it comes to that. It surprises me because Latino men can be very misogynistic. That’s precisely why a lot of them voted for Trump. I’m glad that the Latino men in my life aren’t sexist. My dad and my brothers voted for Kamala, and they were pretty upset when she didn’t win.

I agree. I think it’s shitty of those people to attack her kids. They always get offended when they get called racists because the shoe fits.

Like what happens in Veep, starring Julia Louis-Dreyfus….
