Kamalacaust/HRC 2028!!! \s
No. Kiss of death.
If she wins the primaries, fair and square, without the DNC rigging it in her favor? Sure.
Anything other than that? “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.”
This is all by design. They no interest in winning
Vote. In. The. Primary.
Then accept the reality that for over 99% of state and federal offices either the Democratic or the Republican nominee will win in the general election and vote accordingly. Not voting only maintains the status quo and the only message it sends to “strategists” and candidates is that they don’t have to care about your priorities.
I’ve. Done. Been. Voting. In. Primaries.
It. Don’t. Work. When. The. Country. Is. Fundametally. Conservative.
They need to run a real primary without their thumb in the scale for the first time since 2008…
It’s almost like not doing anything, accomplishes absolutely nothing for your cause. Who knew?
Shocking if true.
Super delegates solely determine the democratic primary.
Superdelegates don’t even get a vote unless the pledged delegates can’t select a nominee in the first round of voting.
That was recent change based on how they were used to declare Clinton bring the victor before voting even started. So Bernie started 400+ votes behind if you listened to the way the media was reporting it
Dems need to wake the fuck up
They’re awake.
They just don’t work for us.
For the love of all things holy.
Close the door.
No! No. No. No. No.
Did I mention HELL NO!!!???
Jfc
Eta: post-read they’re going to run her. They think because of the current administration, people will vote for her in droves and the Overton Window keeps moving right. This stinks but I’m not confident they’re wrong. The people will gleefully fall for it and continue to vote status quo, ignoring the losses keep coming, despite loss-adversion voting.
Nope
Kamala Harris could further unite the party, have no impact, provoke a tea party, or even end up fragmenting it. We’ll have to see how she evolves, with four years to go until the next election. If she doesn’t improve and change, she’s sure not to win the primaries.
I can guarantee that unless she runs as the 2028 republican candidate, she will lose by such a landslide it will be a founding myth for a post apocalyptic religion.
You realize our only other choice will be Gavin, right?
If it’s anything like the last few primaries, the majority of us won’t have a choice at all, it will have been made before we even have a chance to vote.
Biden was picked in 2020 after the 3rd primary.
Our choice will be whoever the fuck we want to vote for in the primaries out of the people who chose to run.
Well, duh, but they will do everything they can to stack the deck. AOC isn’t running for this, in exchange for keeping out they will let her run for Chuck’s Senate seat.
Aside from the Chosen Candidate, everyone else who is running is just running for the name recognition, the ability to live large for a while on campaign cash, and then back out and support the Chosen Candidate when asked to.
Maybe it’s time for the DNC to get their own version of Trump. Pick one of the “not here to win, just here for the optics” candidates and dog pile them into the general election. Remember Trump wasn’t actually a serious candidate during his primary, he was just there to gain leverage for his TV show contract negotiation. Would do a lot of good to show the DNC it’s the voters who get to decide not them.
I’m open to installing Luigi Mangione as president. The Adjuster, and the Great Unifier knows how to reach both sides of the aisle.
I see what the status quo dem voters of Lemmy are doing here. It will only work for the gullible and cowardly
Alex Jones? That you?
