The president and his team have waved away Democrats’ worries about his bid for another term. But this week, he has drawn new attention to the question of what is best for the party.
Funny how nobody wants either of them, and those same folx aren’t offering any other options. I think these sorts of posts come out of Russian troll farms. Ignore them.
Newsom’s role in providing marriage licenses for same sex couples in defiance of his political advisors, conventional wisdom, and the completely predictable government reaction demonstrates for me a person willing to make challenging decisions on the basis of what is right.
No politician will ever line up 100% with what we want, and politics is a messy business. But I think that Newsom took positions that a more political politician like Clinton (defense of marriage act, don’t ask don’t tell) wouldn’t touch.
They do seem better to me. But they’re not running. My state’s Democratic party isn’t having a primary for president. So I might vote in the Republican primary instead.
The state Democratic parties are all free to include presidential candidates on their primary ballots. The DNC is just using funding as a cudgel about it.
My option is to eliminate the federal government entirely and hold regional constitutional conventions, because if we don’t change the system we’ll be right here in another election cycle.
If it were literally any other challenger then this would be a no-brainer, but it’s not like Trump is functionally any younger. Therefore age is irrelevant, we need to look at their policies and… yeah probably not either.
Probably not, lol.

I don’t want him to run, I’ll take Gavin Newsom or AOC. Is that better?
No one has reminded me more of Bill Clinton than Gavin Newsom.

The DNC as an organization is refusing to consider anyone else.
Which is hilarious. They simply can’t abide their own charter. Ooops.

Are they still running troll farms? Do they do it from their phones on the front or something?
Demanding alternatives is a way to stop discussion. It’s not the job of random people to be political analysts.

Russia has extensive nuclear technology. They can make their own out of bismuth.
I’m not Russian, just posting articles that spark discussion.

Really is a race to the bottom, huh?
It’s been a race to the bottom since Bill Clinton and 3rd way Democrats
You’re one of those people that thinks Trump and Biden are equally bad, aren’t you? Oh geeze…
