    Everyone looking for “the” answer needs to realize it was a ton of stuff. Lack of a primary, failing to separate from Biden, campaigning with Republicans, failure to take a hard stance on genocide, ignorant/ill-informed voters, propaganga, misogyny, and racism are only some of the reasons.

      Misogyny and racism are the roadblocks to get through, and constantly influences what the public perceives she can/can’t do. Versus trump who could “shoot someone on 5th ave”

      You’re not wrong or anything, all the stuff matters, it just hurts her more than average white male politician when the stuff she can control isn’t executed perfectly. They should have prepared for this rhetorical of biden not running and had a plan in place, it was such a scramble.
