"After years of pretending that no other qualities mattered in a politician besides one's race, sex, and sexuality, Democrats have discovered that competence and charisma, two traits without which candidates will fail, are far more important than whether you are black, gay, or non-binary. For the past few months, three of the Democratic Party's most beloved DEI stars have been taking arrows left and right from the very same party establishment that elevated their careers in the first place."
"Kamala Harris is arguably the queen of DEI. She was picked by then-candidate Joe Biden to serve as his running mate precisely because she was black and female (also because Biden was pressured to do so). She was the first black and female presidential candidate precisely because she was picked by Biden. She almost made history. Before he dropped out, Biden bragged about the choice, in typical Biden style:"
Democrats increasingly prioritize competence and charisma over race, sex, or sexuality when evaluating political candidates. Several high-profile DEI-linked figures within the party have faced internal criticism and loss of stature. The party appears motivated by declining approval ratings and a search for effective leadership and messaging. Kamala Harris serves as a prominent example: chosen for VP largely because of her identity, celebrated in some quarters, and criticized in others as a political liability. The shift signals a broader recalibration within the party away from optics toward perceived electability and performance.
