And this is why Democrats lost. Why admit and address that perhaps they ran a candidate that was deeply unpopular, even within her own party, when they could just instead blame the “misogynistic Republican” boogeyman.

What do Democrats have to do with Republican candidates in a Republican primary?

Ah my mistake, I missed that this was referencing the Republican primaries here. Forgive me, the whole "Harris wasn't elected because Americans are misogynists" trope has been repeated so often I had that burned into my brain.

Addressing the primaries, no one was beating Trump, it has nothing to do with his closest but still far distant challenger being a woman.
