They probably have a comedy war room with Gavin in it.
Then we will lose in 2028. It’s that simple.
Except it’s never that simple is it? The Republicans ran a convicted felon, one-term President who had the most disgraceful exit in political history, and somehow won back the White House with him anyway.
Empathy and self scouting might be the most consequential characteristic explanations for why someone ends up conservative or pro-social, in this era.
I predict it will be a disaster if we run Gavin Newsom and I’m prefectly fine never finding out because we come to our senses and don’t nominate him. I have zero interest in finding out whether I am wrong by way of a real-life experiment.
I am going to vote for the antifa candidate, regardless of who it is. I would take Newsom over every name you listed, though. He's been the only Democrat being the aggressor. America desperately needs the democratic party to grow a spine and since Obama can't run again, I will gladly support someone filling that role.
Yea I see your points
This has nothing to do with who I would personally prefer to be president. If we could just appoint a prime minister, like in a parliamentary system, I’d feel completely different.
We get it you don't like Newsom but at this point he is the only Democrat showing backbone and finally fighting Trump with fire. It's interesting, I think some don't like him because he is a straight, white man. If so, I think that is silly. Pritzker and Hochul are also fighting back to a lesser extent.
Part of the reason I dislike Newsom is that he is a phony. But at least half of my political dislike of him is that he is a real risk to win the democratic nomination and lose the general election. Anything I can do to spread the gospel against Newsom is a political positive.
So J.D. goes the way of Dan Quayle and Mike Pence... Republican VP's who don't even get a chance at the Party's nomination?
I think Republican governor from the South or Midwest would be the most likely candidate.
You may be fighting an uphill battle. You'll have to declare allegiance to somebody else - and not a list of 3,000,000 Southern or Midwestern white, hetero, Christian boys. And certainly not a list of names which includes Fetterman.
I know Fetterman is really hated on this board and rightfully so. He really seems like he would be a hit with Joe and Eileen Bailey - ie a Republican.You may be fighting an uphill battle.
