- Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option.

Do not blame it on being a woman, statistically they win the same rate as male candidates just run far less often.
It's just being sexist for someone else's sake.
This is not the time to run status quo and low effort candidates but loud and effective ones which we have a shortage of in the DNC.
I'm not. I'm blaming it on the American electorate, which is what I stated in my comment that you didn't read thoroughly.
Not for president they don't, and if you read my comment thoroughly, you'd know that's what I was talking about. Open your eyes bud. It was a woman or a felon rapist traitor who ALREADY FAILED ONCE AS PRESIDENT. We chose the rapist instead of the woman. Welcome to American reality.
And it isn't just that she's a woman. She's a woman AND extremely liberal. That combo simply doesn't work for a lot of the American electorate.
I didn't say status quo. Did you read my comment at all? You can run all sorts of people that aren't status quo and also not a woman. I WANT A WOMAN PRESIDENT. Spoiler alert, it ain't happening anytime soon in America. But if you'd like to ignore reality and lose again...that's your right as a voter. That kind of behavior is why we are where we are.
The American electorate is not who is writing your comments.
You are distinctly ignoring other critiques to focus on gender as the main component. Do not assign your own bias to everyone else. We do not all think as you do and can't be blamed for what you think to be true.
Statistically across the world women win elections at the same rate as men.
Support a female president you want then instead of telling them all that none of them can win because of their gender. It makes you sound like the sexist.
