God. Dammit.
No more fucking neolibs. No Newsom, no Kamala, no Hillary, no Shapiro — fuck the lot of them. We must do everything in power to stop any and every neoliberal traitor from being nominated in 2028.

An electoral system always creates a ruling class. If you want to remove it, you need to randomly pick citizens and rotate them every x years. It’s the only option to have a legislative body that is actually representative of the people, be it for the better or the worst.
But…But…Blue no matter who! Do you want Trump to be elected again! It’s your fault Trump won! ((Insert all other interrupting, conversation ending phrases neo-libs use here))
DNC: Newsom/Harris 2028 take it or leave it

Or they somehow win 2028, normalize all the evil fucked up shit of the Trump admin, then the 2032 republican nominee wants to reintroduce racial segregation and stripping women’s voting rights completely (Newsom and Harris made gay marriage illegal already, because it was deemed “too liberal”).

🤮
And if she runs again and becomes the candidate, she’ll lose again.
Kamala, dear, you’re nearly as milquetoast as Biden. You’re female, black, younger Biden. Nobody wanted Biden.
…and so many people didn’t quite f’n get it that if you don’t vote for Harris, you get Trump. Binary choices are easy for kids to understand but hard for American voters.
Have the day you begged for.
We really need to move past First Past the Post, but the people who can institute the change are the people who are elected by FPTP.
We can in states with voter sponsored ballot initiatives, Michigan I think will be having a ranked choice voting constitutional amendment by referendeum after they submit a million signatures of registered voters or whatever it is.
Other states already did it, Alaska I know. It is a superior system that rejects extremists candidates, and makes people running third party not play spoiler. If you vote for third party first, you choose if he loses, your vote goes to the democrat. If the democrat loses, then your vote goes to Crimedog McGruff, or whatever.
If you nominate harris you get the president. You knew the situation and did it anyway.
Harris is Trump, they are both cogs in the same fucking machine, changing the cog doesnt change how the machine functions.
Nah, fuck that shit. You’re doing the equivalent of blaming rape victims for what they were wearing.
Alright, lose to AOC in the primary then.
I mean, at this point AOC is the only good option possible out of who is looking at running. If there’s someone with a better chance and track record, I am all ears.
I was originally thinking AOC versus Erica Kirk.
nice astro turfing btw

bad kamala. thats true, americans please keep voting for trump! he’s your savior.
Already working for Trump, Putin, and AIPAC I see.
/u/return2ozma consistently called for no one to vote for Harris, or Biden, during 2024, actively helping Trump to win by sowing defeatist propaganda. They are a Nazi supporter, adjacently.
They don’t care who the DNC runs, they will campaign against them, because no one that makes it through the primary will ever be “pure” enough for this troll.
Edit: your down vote just helps to prove my point. You are an anti-democracy troll.
If they run her again, they deserve to lose.
Agreed, but I don’t trust this particular user to be trying to shove that down our throats again.
She was the least popular candidate in 2020, but for some reason Biden chose her as his VP. Then she lost to Donald Trump in 2024, after practically being forced onto the ticket. And she’s still thinking about running again?
JFC. Whoever is telling her this is a good idea, needs to be fired.
That’s the problem with the DNC putting identity politics over matters of policy. And I don’t even use that term in the same sense as the right-wing anti-DEI psychosis.
DEI is a matter of policy. Choosing a milquetoast establishment neoliberal solely because she’s a woman of color is identity politics.
It’s better to nominate a progressive regardless of race, gender, or sexuality, than it is to nominate the most intersectional minority who panders to the right-wing “moderates.”
The Dems lost in 2016 because they forced Hillary on everyone when they wanted Bernie. Clearly they still haven’t learned their lesson…
for some reason Biden chose her as his VP
Because she was friends with his late son and fellow AG Beau.
She also took the most aggressive and direct shot at Biden that I can recall during the primary with her criticism of Biden’s position on busing.
And to Biden’s credit, he approved of her being willing to challenge him like that.
Probably the same person that told Hillary to run
It was her turn.
She was a token
Michelle Obama is an immensely qualified and insightful human being for a number of reasons and BitchBoyBurr sold his soul to bonesaw McGee and the oil bunch without a second thought and then whined like the pathetic little supplicant he is at heart when people called him out for it. Fuck him forever.
Talked mad shit about those billionaires until they offered him a check finally. Turned out he was just jealous.
Looks like I linked it wrong. Was only linking the joke at 4:00 in… can’t find a clip with just that. https://youtu.be/YYxJUGjmuxE?t=241
Nothing against Michelle Obama unfortunately that joke was included in the video.
Fucking sellout
Her only merit was that she’s not Trump. It’s a very good merit, but let’s hope for some stronger candidate next time, if there ever will be a next time.
Being “not Trump” literally only worked cause of Covid. If that didn’t happen, I can almost guarantee he would have won 2020. As annoying as it is, the people that would vote for a Dem candidate need to be convinced to do so and no amount of calling them lazy or accusing them of being terrible people will change that. Blue no matter who won’t work.
Ultimately americans need to turn over 3/4 of their sitting politicians by 2028 or else the power structure will remain unchanged.
Her only merit was that she’s not Trump
Correct.
It’s a very good merit
Not anywhere near as good as it sounds, given how difficult it is for millions of eligible voters to actually vote.
No matter how evil the alternative is, you have to give people something to vote FOR in order to convince them to risk their livelihood while waiting in line in November weather for sometimes half a dozen or more hours, quite likely with children in tow or while paying for unaffordable childcare.
The DNC won’t hear of it, though. They’re a for-profit corporation that exists to maximize legal (and sometimes illegal) bribes coming their way, regardless of electoral outcomes.
let’s hope for some stronger candidate next time, if there ever will be a next time.
She may not be trump in name or appearance but she’s a cog in the same machine
Better sit at home and be a victim then.
We are all the victims, some of us just happen to know who the oppressor is
Both parties have been for a long time.
DNC will fail to read the room on 2028. Lesser evil is over, time to earn votes
Might as well vote for the greatest evil. At least they actually stand for something.
Mostly himself and things related to himself, but yes, he does.
Mostly himself while regularly harming his supporters, 30+% of whom will continue hanging on his every word
She’s already showing us she isn’t listening to us.
it looks like she cares more about the presidency than representing Americans
Absolutely. Unfortunately this seems to be quite common with those that aim to run.
If Americans were actually represented by our government, things would be vastly different here and around the world.
I’M SPEAKING
I’d love for her to run again and take votes away from Gavin Newsom in the primary so an actual working class candidate can win the nomination.
We can thank elizabeth warren for biden since you bring that up, our great progressive champion that knowingly threw the primary to genocide joe.
If she wants to win, she needs to be out there today pushing back against the regime. Instead, there’s crickets. That’s a “No” vote from me.
Nobody in the DNC are pushing. They are all afraid. When the 2026 election is stolen, they will still do nothing.
I mean, if she manages to win a contested primary, she’ll be a better candidate.
If nothing else, maybe she and Gavin will split the Goober vote and let some fresh blood in
I bet the super delegates push both of them until it’s just those two. Then they will have a battle of the corporate shill old guards.
