OPINION - Kamala Harris’s defeat has exploded the notion of the “women’s vote” — how delightful
Well, was the US presidential election the great betrayal? One headline in the papers today sums up that particular point of view: “White women killed off the first female president”. Well! Loaded or what? How else might you put it: White women fail their daughters? White women let down their own sex? White women Bend the Arc of History the Wrong Way? How about: White women vote on the basis of their economic interests, immigration and foreign policy and on the basis of the actual merits of the candidates? Just a thought.
