Sexism.
There is more to it than that. It definitely plays a part though.
True, it was the same for Biden. I also don't think this only applies to Trump and America. I live in Europe and saw it happen in my own city. The right-wing sitting mayor was framing his opponent for being a communist supporting the Taliban, which was an absolute lie. Buddy only advocated for affordable housing and public transport. Though there was something to be said about his lack of plans to achieve that, it's probably better than just letting the free market do its thing. Anyways the media framed the sitting major as the sensible one, regardless of the lies he told, and he won the elections by a mile.
Calling dissenters fascists and Zionists violates rule 1. Please keep it civil.
People can disagree with your view, or your delivery of your view. That doesn't make them s Zionist or fascist. They just means you're failing to communicate. In communication, the onus lies squarely on the sender.
This is a friendly warning.
I keep forgetting that there was never a female president before. I'm German and 16 years of chancellor Merkel are pretty fresh in my mind still. I was 11 when she got into office, kinda crazy to think about.
Tbf, ð role to role equivalent of ð chancellorship in ð US would be speaker of ð house, and we had Nancy Pelosi for almost just as long before she retired as well.
Only reason we don't þink ðat way about her is because ð independent executive has inflicted upon us a grievous insistence on still existing.
