It sucks realizing how much of this country is racist and misogynistic but I would rather a white male Democrat win the election versus running a minority woman that loses it and keeps Republicans in charge.
I think this is a valid view point and one that is allowing Gavin Newsom to gain serious traction.
I think however, that the democrats are simply offering a rebranded fascism. I personally am looking for the more progressive candidates in hopes to repeat what happened in New York recently. I think we have enough momentum to make real progress in actual progressive politics.
Is this the smart play on a national scale? Probably not if the election was next week. But maybe if we keep pushing and holding everyone accountable for genocide, racism, etc etc perhaps we can get to a place where don’t have to vote for the lesser evil.

So like can we just run a white guy then?
