Newsom isn't offering anything different.
so what the hell do you want, exactly? you can promise as much pie in the sky shyt as you want, but people have to believe you'll deliver it

and there's no reason newsom can't offer whatever it is your imaginary progressive candidate will. it's just empty campaign promises :dead:

free healthcare? childcare? whoever the nominee is, the DNC is gonna basically gin up the same platform. you need someone who can sell it

My guy, I'm telling you this because I like you.

When you say stuff like this, you sound like a psychopath. I know you don't pay attention to international news as much as domestic, but anyone who is not outraged by what has gone on in Gaza for the past few years has something wrong with them.

There is a reason that there is so much global outrage towards Israel right now, and that outrage is also showing in America. Please stop saying things like this, for your own good.
letting whats happening in Gsza make a difference in who you’re voting for in the us election is insane.

Biden and Kamala were relentlessly blamed by leftist and “both siders” for what happened in Gaza.

and don't forget that anyone who was unwilling to sit out and let trump win, was a "genocide supporter" :unimpressed:

progressives simply never made the case why americans should care more about Palestine, than Saudi Arabia does :yeshrug:

and Egypt is fencing Palestinians out; once again, zero smoke for Egypt. even as these same unserious people demand the US opens its border :childplease:

i'll vote on Hamas' failed war, when they make the case for why it matters. until then, it's a bottom 100 issue

I see the value of a Joe Manchin because I think it is important for Dems to be able to win in local regions/states, but we also need Presidents who have the ability to use the bully pulpit the way LBJ did. He should have used his capital to go after Sinema and Manchin for blocking his agenda.
Before 10/7/2023, this was my biggest problem with Biden and realized he was a bit of a phony.

This is your hallmark legislation, and he didn't use his position to fight for it.

Don't forget the "you will get $2,000 in stimulus checks if you vote in Ossoff and Warnock!"

"No, we meant a total of $2,000, which is really $600 more."

People on here really defended that.

Imagine if progressives would have pushed a candidate instead of pushing uncommitted and a performative protest vote.

They may have had a chance at getting a convention or mini primary and get their candidate on the ballot when Biden stepped down.


:wow:

Some people are right to be skeptical of Platner. I am too. But I can't shake the feeling that others just see an opportunity to go after someone who doesn't fit their "moderate" mold, especially since he's an insurgent candidate gaining momentum outside the party. It's funny how none of this energy was there for George Latimer when he ran a blatantly racist campaign to oust Jamaal Bowman. The party had no problem lining up behind him.
They also let in some colorism when Wesley Bell beat Cori Bush.
