Vice President Harris boasts a 13-point lead over former President Trump among women voters in a new poll, a notable edge with a major voting bloc that could be critical for her ticket in November.

An Economist/YouGov poll taken this week found 51 percent of women who are registered voters said they support Harris, while 38 percent backed her Republican rival. On the other hand, Trump, who has struggled with women voters, saw a 7-point lead among men.

      If you’re implying that they were deliberately sown doubts, I very much agree. I’m not saying a bunch of folks didn’t get duped. I think it was very much to blame on agents provocateur.

      What I’m saying is that the acrimony can’t be waved away, not then and not now. It has to be taken seriously even if it was the result of manipulation. Saying “nah you got suckered” gets exactly the kind of lukewarm response it deserves.

        There were seeds which def helped the bullshit grow.

        That doesn’t mean you should encourage or embrace that growth. If you do you’re embracing shit.

      Whatever bogeyman you’ve decided to blame because you can’t take the idea that Clinton fucked up.

          Oh hell no… she did fuck up.

          I’m surprised you can admit she’s less than perfection incarnate.

          But not because you think she somehow supermanned the DNC.

          Now where did I say that? I said that her actions during the '08 and '16 primaries caused resentment.
