    Although I personally feel AOC is not ready for presidency and I’d rather have her replace Jeffries or Schumer first; if she did run, I would support her over Newsom or Harris any day.

      Same, but this is for the governor of California.

      It’s easy to get them confused because so many morons are already preparing for the ‘lesser-evil’ that is Newsom.

      This is about the primary for the Democratic Party nomination to run for the governorship of California, so AOC isn’t in any way relevant.

    With any luck there will be 8 corpo-liberals that will split the vote and we will get a socialist.

    Maybe this is how we get ranked choice.

      With any luck, the constituency won’t be full of morons/scumbags and they’ll actually vote for someone who represents the working class.

      I know, it’s a pipe dream.

    “It might sound and look ironic, but if he’s willing to pay that tax then why the hell isn’t another billionaire willing?” said Zuniga.

    If he’s willing to pay more taxes, why isn’t he already using the literal billions he’s stolen from the people to help him?

    I fucking hate this shit from billionaires:

    I’m totally cool with giving back some of this stolen wealth, just make me. C’mon, make me do the thing anyone with a shred of human empathy would do without anyone asking them to.

    And I’ll never understand why people believe they’d put in a good faith effort if they weren’t willing to do it on their own accord
