A 'where did it go wrong for the democrats?' post shouldn't be necessary - bad candidate + bad campaign = bad results, but then again, the answer might not be that obvious to them.

Do 48% of Democrats really think Kamala is the best choice for 2028? If true, that's great - I fully support their decision. If it isn't true, somebody wanted it to appear so - perhaps they can push her through again without one of those pesky primaries.

The Democrat bench can't really be this thin, surely there is someone tucked away with plans, and policies, and personality, and an ability to speak and answer questions without just clumping together a bunch of clichés and metaphors and adverbs?

A diversity-hire nominee running entirely on 'trump bad, abortion good' wasn't enough this time. If you're a Democrat, what gives you hope that it will be enough next time when Trump isnt on the ticket and abortion is more settled than it is now?

Trump won't be on the ticket next time, but looking at where the GOP is going, there'll be more monkeys with a grenade on their ticket in the future. And given where the US society seems to be going, it'll be increasingly hard to compete with that.

Whoever it is - Vance, DeSantis, Youngkin - they'll have the momentum of Trump without the baggage. No more 97 felonies! or whatever, no more January 6 (that cow is dry), no porn stars or their lawyers to hype up. If democrats don't put up someone that can speak coherently you can expect another 4-8 years of those ebil Republicans after Trump.

That's a pretty low bar LOL. Either someone who can speak coherently - or an ebil Republican.

[oportet]

Definitely a low bar, but a bar they didn't come close to this time. And they want to run it again?

[fridi]

Which candidate are you referring to?

[oportet]

Harris - the early favorite for next rounds Democrat nominee

[fridi]

Care to support the claim that Harris is someone who could not speak coherently with evidence?

There are entire compilations of her sounding ridiculous. Did you hear her explanation of the Russia Ukraine war to an adult radio audience? (I'll get a link or two together later but the specific case I mentioned was on charlemagne that god)

"Ukraine is a country in Europe. It exists next to another country called Russia. Russia is a bigger country. Russia is a powerful country. Russia decided to invade a smaller country called Ukraine. So, basically, that's wrong, and it goes against everything that we stand for"


Can you show me Kamala sounding intelligent? I won't limit you to a topic - any topic at all - just show me her speaking on it as though she has a better understanding of it than a 12 year old.
