Not a hot take, most people who understand political dynamics agree with this take

I don’t see why that’d be the case personally

the base simply would not vote for her, whether in the primary or not showing up on election day when caught between hyper partisanship and sexism

Most Democrat politicians who aren’t straight white men usually run on the fact that they aren’t straight white men as a main point in their campaign. That tends to lose a lot of people as most people hate identity politics. Republicans of that group don’t tend to run on their race or sex as much, which tends to annoy people less

Like Nikkey Haley. She was doing fine until she started talking about how we need a woman in charge.

And yes I’m aware she’s a Republican but it’s just an example

Yeah I just think the baked in sexism of the Republican Party would negate any gains made by the dynamic you’re describing

No as a Republican myself I would vote for a woman as long as she didn’t run on being a woman

It’s not sexism it’s about being likeable
