Please no president. Senate is ok.
America has shown it can’t handle a woman, much less woman of color, much less young, much less progressive. The DNC just needs a straight white man who is decently progressive but appears to be moderate on stuff. All of this to say: Tim Walz please.
Probably Senate to primary Schumer. That would be the only logical move.
Schumer is a spineless AIPAC sellout. Easily one of the main reasons why the Democratic Party is so disliked.
I think everyone can agree: Fuck Chuck Schumer, he has to go.
New York can do better than Schumer. The toughest part is all the money and endless positive press that sellouts get.
Congratulations for scapegoating women rather than addressing any of the other more meaningful commonalities between Clinton and Harris.
People don’t really care about identity politics as much as the politicians do
The sexism even more disgusting when compounded with the hypocrisy: centrists smeared Sanders in 2020 by claiming he said women can’t win.
Now that they don’t want a particular woman to run, they’ll scream that sexist garbage like it’s gospel.
I’m talking about the moderate conservatives who hate Trump, and maybe aren’t too involved in politics. They are more traditional but would vote for progressive policies if they were packaged correctly. It’s a sad state of the country, but with Newsmax and Fox brainwashing people, that’s the only winning strategy.
They. Will. Never. Vote. For. A. Democrat. You’re alienating your base in order to chase a bunch of nazis to the right.
You can’t say you want someone who is “decently progressive” and then pretend we can’t nominate a woman because we don’t want to turn off moderate conservatives. It’s nonsensical.
Her gender wasn’t even a serious line of attack during the campaign and she went so hard to the center she was losing votes in the cities, the core source of Democratic votes.
It’s not what I want. It’s what the non-MAGA moderates would vote for.
because moderate politics have been going so well lately …
Notice how I said “appear”. Just the fact that he’s an old, straight, white male is good enough for many of the moderate conservatives who hate Trump.
And here we go again. Get a conservative who pretends to be moderate! (You know that’s what it will be. It’s why you’re advocating for yet another fucking moderate) We’ll get the conservative vote this time! Or we’ll lose! The important thing is that no one to the left ever gets representation!
You should go read my comment again, because you completely missed the point.
You’re advocating for trying to appeal to republicans. That’s what the party does. It’s how they keep losing.
I’m advocating for appealing to their most base desire, which is bullshit identity stuff. A sadly large amount of people would vote for a white man just because it’s a white man. The policies themselves could be pretty progressive.
From the people who seriously expected you to buy “biden is the most progressive president since FDR” and “I’m a progressive who gets things done.”
Maybe if the party would quit trying to pass off centrism as progressive, I’d buy that.
ok baby boy, you do you, have a good day
