    If the voters are that stupid, then it should’ve been easy for Harris to get elected. Democratic politicians must be even stupider than the average voter is.

      It’s possible to be intelligent and disliked by stupid people. I think that’s more common than being intelligent and well-liked by stupid people.

      In addition, Harris is a woman. Stupid dudes definitely do not like it when a woman is smarter than them.

        You aren’t following me. Why isn’t the smart person able to fool the stupid people into voting for her? She did everything right. She had tons of celebrities endorsing her. All of her messages were carefully run past consultants and focus groups. It should’ve worked, right?

          She didn’t think that’s what she was trying to do, IMO.
