There will be no elections in 2028. They will not put Trumpists in every single available space in the governement, implement the nazi **** Project 2025, destroy the USA, only to let someone go into office in 4 years and reverse everything.

Project 2025 is too ambitious (in all the worst ways) for them to let a democrat go into office in 4 years. Not happening.

Yeah this is what I'm thinking. We're screwed

She will not try 2028 as it will embarrass her further. She flopped hard in 2019 and only got where she was because she was put there by Biden. She will never try to run again.

Yeah, ain’t no way I’m accepting that as foregone conclusion.

Her still sending out campaign emails and post election polling are telling a different story.

Yeah they really need to tap into the Tim Walz, Andy Beshear, Sherrod Brown, William J Barber II type figures rather than the sleek almost slimey careerists of the coastal Democrats & Washington Democrats

Harris is far from a stereotypical establishment Washington Democrat.

and that's a good thing imo. She needs to run california which i know she'd be fabulous at but anything that involves foreign policy she needs to stand away from. She is empty in that regard. We need a good democratic leader interested in some isolationism in 2028.

she probs shouldn't run for president... I liked her but she lost pretty bad. On the flipside, people now know her a lot better, that was one of her biggest hurdles with the election.

She really didn’t. Granted, the electoral count was a bummer but the popular vote margin that Trump won by is tiny.

I told all of you that Kamala was not a strong candidate when she announced her 2024 run and nobody listened to me. 2024 was not her first failure as far as presidential campaigns go and I would be shocked if she is not finished in that regard.

If they want to retake the executive, senate or house, the democrat party needs to embrace progressive populism in the mold of Bernie Sanders, not the establishment party backed by corporate money.

Babes, nobody listened to you because there was literally no other option in the summer. It was either lose by catastrophic numbers with Biden (New York, New Jersey, and New Mexico would’ve probably gone to Trump, The House would’ve been a complete wash, and the senate would’ve been so bad that the midterms would’ve even matter, all according to Biden’s own internal polling) or roll the dice with Harris, who would have immediate access to funds that would help boost vulnerable seats. Now that we know just how terrible Biden was doing, we can see that she was tasked with the impossible and was able to stop the bleeding just enough to give us a fighting chance in the midterms.

Joe Biden was literally the worst primary candidate in 2020. He won because Obama made some phone calls. I'm serious. They thought he was next in line, so they let him have it. Bernie was winning in the beginning. 

Then, Kamala was chosen. Kamala, who dropped out of the primary before the vote in her home state of California because she was losing by so much there. 

These are bad decisions by the Dem elite. There is no other way to put it. 

Then, Biden refused to drop out and allow a real primary. 

I have been sounding this alarm since forever. No one listened. They said I was being a spoiler. There is no right time to criticize a Dem, they said. Well this is what you all get. I'm sorry. I'm just angry. And placing the blame on voters will not solve the problem. Democrats need a populist message and to really change who they are beholden to. I'm sorry for telling the truth. 

Kamala absolutley shouldn't run again. Are you all serious when you say that? Do you even want to win the next election? I'm dumbfounded at the amount of people who think she should run again. Do you all just want to lose? Kamala did okay given the time she had to campaign, but previously, she's been terrible. She's always been about the Israel lobby. She's always just said her talking points. People notice that. They want a candidate who stands up and stands for SOMETHING. Hence the AOC/Trump voter who voted for both of them. We are not going to win by doing the same stuff. Come ON. Be REAL. Kamala as a candidate, even for gov, is a joke. She's cooked. My advice to her is to write a book and become an activist. She's done.

So? Everyone was trying to convince me she was a good candidate when she was not. We are talking about one of the most unpopular vice presidents in history if you are going by polling numbers. I never said Joe Biden would have done any better now did I?

Kamala was just the latest example of the establishment democrat party screwing us over by failing to pick a candidate with any degree of popular support. How ****ing dumb do you have to be to think it's a good idea to run with someone tied to the hip with Biden?
