I’m with Sally. And Hillary. And Sanity. Strategize away. Feed the stupid beast. But how about we acknowledge the bloody obvious: 1) They cheated. Yes, it’s infuriating, no, it’s not particularly helpful to a party looking to move forward, but just because it’s preposterous doesn’t mean it’s not true. 2) Trump appealed to the lowest common denominators, sexism and racism , and it worked.
(And Bernie and Jill gave the right its best material by sprinkling a healthy dose of class resentment in with both.)
I’m one of millions of women who thought we were LONG past this bullshit. It’s ridiculous and embarrassing to be having a conversation about why women and POC and members of the LGBTQ community should never be afterthoughts in 2017. Our grandmothers and their grandmothers fought for that. So fix the party. Reassure the boys that their feelings matter. I’m tired of being disappointed.
