I'd vote for AOC is a second, but the GOP will would just run any random white guy and automatically win.
They’re going to need Trump again or to get behind one of these “Trump Jr’s” but I don’t see them getting behind the wannabe Trumps so I dunno :yeshrug:

People are still talking about Trump 2028

Even the Republicans gonna need more than that. Going back to regular republican platform gonna piss the MAGA crowd off

And it might be to the point where we see another January 6 except bigger and bolder. I don't put nothing past these cacs and whoever is running things behind the scenes. Trump's ties to Russian interference looking less and less like conspiracy by the day. And if being openly fascist got the rethugs this far, why stop now?

The Jeb bush or Romney types just aint gonna cut it no more. Which is why them democrats need to provide an actual alternative instead of centrist bullshyt :beli:

At the end of the day, Republican voters will support whoever Trump decides to endorse. It's a cult. :yeshrug:

Although, if Trump dies without endorsing anybody I could see things getting chaotic. Even so I still can't see AOC winning against a conservative white guy. If nothing else conservative voters would fall in line just to avoid having a Latina president.

White (Hillary). Black/Indian (Kamala). Latina (AOC)


Does not matter which flavor they choose. A woman is not winning any time soon


Dems are not a serious party if they pick her
If she's the best primary candidate on policy I'm supporting her. I don't think a woman can win though because the country is too sexiest.

That’s kinda dicey at this point. We will see. I’m not thinking AOC will even run but who knows

Has there really ever been a strong woman candidate yet

The closest was probably Hillary cause of the positions she had(so on a technicality which isn’t saying much) but she was too thirsty and couldn’t win people over, maybe Elizabeth Warren

The point is if there was a truly strong woman candidate she can compete for that seat

There’s a primary. If the people pick her and she loses it’s on them.
imagine the DNC trusting its own primary process :russ:

Conservatives are going to vote Republican regardless. What matters is getting the non-voter motivated enough to come out to vote

This is ridiculous. Haley isn't popular at all on any level outside of South Carolina.

I think she got a chance. It'll take a lot of campaigning but it's possible. If she runs, her performance in the primary debates gonna be the only way we're gonna get a good idea

Cause we gotta keep in mind, Clinton and Harris came with a lot of baggage. Yeah, people hate them cause of sexism. But they also represented moderate politics and the status quo. Not exactly the most engaging for voters questioning whether the shyt is still even worth it at all to vote. AOC is young, progressive, and doesn't have a history of locking nikkas up

Cause remember folks ain't think Obama would win either :manny:

All I'm saying is, they need to avoid the same mistakes. No more harris and damn sure no Gavin Newsom :scusthov:

If they must run a white man, JB Pritzker. Though his politics have surprised me despite him being a white billionaire, I still hold distrust to any white man off GP. But I'd still vote him over an establishment dem or republican any day

and kamala didn't outlast corey booker and somehow did worse in her own state than biden did when it was her time to shine

hillary is objectively the reason we have trump. she propped him up through the rep primary because her campaign managers didn't like her odds against cruz lol....

at this point the only thing democrats have practiced, deliberate outcomes in is running against other democrats.

You know Democrats were generally unpopular in 2024 so this is a bullshyt talking point. I agree that Hillary is a large reason we have Trump, but the broken Electoral College system is too.

THIS.

Even tho many of these Trumpers are crazy, people gotta stop thinking it's all “Trump or bust” with these MAGA/Conservatives types.

Sure in the past when Trump still had the opportunity to run for two-terms that the whole “... or bust” attitude made sense but when that reality kicks in, and he's no longer a viable option due to term limits, then the next move will be supporting whoever the next Republican nominee will be, and from their perspective, likely and preferably one whom Trump vocally endorses, they'll get in line, or Democrats sweep across the board, and y'know they'd never let that happen.

They're not going to suddenly withhold their vote simply because Trump ain't in the picture anymore, why? 'Cause, within their logic, any Republican/Conservative is better than a Democrat/Liberal, they're not gonna cause a fit, and let the blue side win simply because Trump can't run anymore, they'll move on to the next option, whether that someone is a MAGA protege or Conservative.
