    Harris’s election means there is a woman US President. I think that would “defy” history a little bit more, don’t you?

        Historically, Obama was the first minority to lead a major nation. But, the US has become way behind when it comes to gender. Many major nations have had women leaders. As Gerry Ford once said, “if we get a woman President, men better watch out”. And he’s right, that’s 51% of the population.

        So, at least as it pertains to the Presidency, Republicans would be right.
