Well yeah. Trump was campaigning on discrimination. I don't know how you can measure what percent of it was racism and what percent of it was sexism plus a little bit of xenophobia and various other such b*******.

I do think there is hope for women candidates because there's a lot of women in the country and you don't need to get the majority of men to vote for you. If Harris or Hillary had a platform as good as Bernie Sanders, I think either of them could have won, easily. Of course that's just my opinion, and the only way to actually find out would be to give that a go next time around.
