The #doublestandard is #laughable.
In former #President #DonaldTrump’s #RepublicanParty (and it is his party now) #childishness, #cruelty, and #pettiness #reign supreme, the primary focus long ago shifted from #policy to #adhominem attacks where and #women’s #accomplishments are relegated to #irrelevance.

#KamalaHarris’ #status as a #biracial #woman is either a #strength or a #weakness, depending on whom you #ask.
More than 33 million #Americans are #multiracial and likely see themselves #reflected in #Harris’ layered #background. But #Racist #Republicans are also trying to use Harris’ race against her.
While many voters embrace Kamala Harris’ candidacy and the fact that she is a multiracial woman without any biological children, some Republicans are using her identity as fodder for attacks.
On #VicePresident #KamalaHarris and #Trans #Rights.
First and foremost, it’s obvious that I am not going to vote for her opponent. The #racism that Donald #Trump and #JDVance represent must be stopped.
