Continue to say no to a woman president. I don’t believe she would win in ‘28. We absolutely have to win in ‘28

once Newsom's term is up. Much as I think Harris is amazing and wanted so badly for her to win in 2024, we have to run someone else in 2028 for president. Nominating someone for a second time who general election voters have already weighed in on and not chosen, whether that's due to racism, misogyny, or other unknowable factors, would be as foolish as running Hilary Clinton for a second time, or Al Gore. It breaks my heart, because Harris is so immensely qualified, just as Hilary was so immensely qualified, but we have to move on to a different candidate.
