We’ve gotta do everything we can to prevent a Newsom or other craven neoliberal lunatic from getting the nomination, otherwise we are going to get a much much worse traitor lunatic next time around.
America will not vote a minority woman as President in this century. They would never even vote for a woman.
Right candidate, wrong country.
both just did the exact same strategy that always costs the dems elections. Hilary won the popular vote, remember?
Popular vote isn't enough in the United states. Also, Hilary is Bill's wife. That's part of why she got as many votes as she did. If I was American, I would vote for AOC but I know she'd never win. A woman of colour has no chance down there. I hate saying it, but it is what it is.
She and Bill also controlled and funded the DNC.
I think there’s something to that, but I think with a sufficient mass movement behind it, such a candidate could overcome the obvious treason.
That's how parties that don't actually serve the majority end up dying. It's a flaw in democracy that it can be so easily corrupted by the wealthy classes.
It ends up all being a sham, then a shame, then a dictatorship.
No, of course I would vote against the Republican if the Democrat were Newsom, that’s just common sense. I’m saying that we need to do everything we can to prevent him from being the nominee now, while we can still affect things.
That's not what they said at all.
Yes, and as many of us need to say it as possible or they will ratfuck their way to running an unelectable republican-lite in the general.
