People need to upvote this for visibility, not disagreement. Seems like most of us agree, fuck no.

People need to see what BS is coming.

But then again I'm just assuming that's how lemmy works and if we downvote it will get lost.

You really think there will be elections in 2028...

[-] normalexit@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago

Yeah, Putin continues to win elections in his country by a landslide. We'll have those.

Who?

Seriously. I haven't seen a word from her since she lost. Meanwhile, Elizabeth Warren, Katie Porter, and of course AOC are posting and speaking publicly every day. Katie's running for governor of California and I will give her my vote when the time comes.

The DNC clearly has its head up somewhere dark and damp. Harris's campaign went flat as soon as they got involved.

Oh my fuck. God no. Stop. Please stop. What the actual fuck.

Are you fucking kidding me?

Only if she plays the role of Taft in 1912.

If the DNC is stuck on putting up an “establishment” candidate, why not Schiff? Seems like there’s no way they’re going to back AOC even though I’d guess she would get a lot of energy behind her.

Ok that's enough social media for today. Sigh

[-] WraithGear@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

I’m not voting democrat again, so they can run her without me.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again here. It may be in our best interest to nominate a milquetoast candidate for the presidency in 2028 and for the republicans to win it.

That way when 2030 comes around, the house is packed with progressives, as the party in charge usually fares poorly in the midterms.

Why all of that? Well, because the congress in 2030 gets to draw the election district maps after the 2030 census, and for the next decade, progressives could then be represented accurately.

Now, a solid counter argument is what about the courts? And that’s valid, we likely can’t get both in the short to medium term. The best we could maybe hope for is a blue 2026 in the Senate, which could then accept judges that both the president and the senate agree upon. I think there is a case for some liberalesque populist judges to get through.
