    It’s easy to look tough and strong when your only comparison is trump or Biden.

    I’ve been saying for years whichever bowed out first would win their party the election, because pretty much anyone else in the country was more electable.

    trump will never back out, and he’ll keep acting more and more deranged which should translate to more Dem.seats in Congress.

    It’s why we need to be pushing Kamala to the left already. The party can not afford to get House, Senate, and presidency again just to seat on their hands till midterm.

    We need to push for Kamala to have plans ready to go and public for day one or we risk her pulling the “and now I’ll look into my promises” bullshit that Joe did.

    If we waste time we lose voters. If we hit the ground running and maintain momentum we could just end this republican nonsense all together. Relegate them to a small minority in office with no effective power on a national level.

    It really doesn’t take much, voters have very low standards right now. She really has a golden opportunity or she can side with the wealthy.

        It’s just not how it works out. As soon as one party has the power all the internal divisions and in-fighting come out.
