might i add, the one part of the 2016 campaign that wasn't replicated was the identity politics focus. harris did not lose (primarily) due to her race or gender, in part because she didn't make the campaign about that. i think that part of the reason misogyny had such legs in the 2016 campaign was clinton's choice to make "elect a woman" a core argument. clinton, a clueless white woman, ate shit on identity politics because she hadn't considered the possibility that outside of her own circles that wouldn't perform well. the harris campaign was executed worse, but at least seemed to understand that. anyone who tries to argue that harris lost on those grounds should take a good hard look at what actually happened.
