Do they ever learn from any fuck up? No. Our next nominee is probably going to be Nancy Pelosi because we all know how much everyone loves her, and she's the perfect age to run.
Well, it is her turn.
Whoo! First boss-lady President!
As if we are ever going to have actual elections again.
None of you realize how bad this is going to get
I read quite well, and understood my history lessons. And I'm armed and practiced. Still, likely won't be enough, but I'll die with my boots on before ICE comes for my legal, and brown, alien wife.
And for all y'all bitching about life's minor inconveniences, wait for Depression 2.0. You'll find out quick what's truly important and what you can do without.
It's going to be Gavin Newsom and Rahm Emanuel. They will care about sucking Netanyahu's dick far more than any domestic policy goal. Depending on how badly Trump fucks up, it they might even win.
And then it’ll be “Vote blue no matter who!”
And “don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good”
And then “stupid progressives you make us lose all the time!”
And then we’re thrown into camps by JD Vance’s stormtroopers while elected democrats hold up signs.
Then maybe stay home and not vote harder?
I have voted in every primary and general election for the past 25 years.
Stop lying to me and telling me that’s the way to get shit done.
It's almost like we've been through this all before.
When the country is circling the drain it’s the same shit just faster and faster.
Nah, they will just run Harris again but lean even harder into trying to sway Republican voters since it worked out so well.
It'll be Newsome running on Prosperity Agenda and slightly more humane El-salvadorian black sites.
She’ll have to elbow out Diane Feinstein.
i'm currently watching them fail to learn in VA elections
Idk if it's necessarily fail more than happy to capitulate. Only way out of this will be Luigi style I'm afraid. I mean, I'm all for hoping David Hogg burns out the corrupt but it's unlikely he can do it alone.
If it is, I won't vote for the first time ever.
I was being hyperbolic and trying to think of the worst Democrat possible to put up, so I really highly doubt they would actually run her, but really, you just never fucking know these days, nothing would shock me. They could run Don Jr. at this point and I'd be like "yeah, sounds about fucking right" while bashing my head into my desk.
Or just write in DemsNeedToListen ToThierVoters. Show them it was an ACTIVE choice not to back a shit candidate, and you were there, willing, and able to vote had they offered better.
Write-ins for non-candidates don't get recorded. Vote third-party instead.
