Nah I vehemently disagree with this. The racist sexist bigots aren’t going to vote democrat no matter what. Kamala spent a lot of time trying to court the “”“moderate”" republicans and it didn’t work.
Obama won because he had a base and he got people excited. People still remember “Yes we can” and just the general hope and inspiration he brought.
And honestly to even suggest the radicalisation of the right was due to Obama is crazy.

Don’t make the mistake of thinking that racism and especially sexism don’t exist within the Democratic voting base. They are much less of a problem than within the Republican voting base, but they are still significant enough to swing elections.
And honestly to even suggest the radicalisation of the right was due to Obama is crazy.
Not solely due to Obama, but his existence in the White House did get a lot of people to take off their masks.
