Terrible idea, we need to stay away from people with no political background of any kind becoming defacto heads of political parties.

I do not know much about Dems outside the big names but who has a good platform or would be a viable candidate while not being 70+ ?
Gavin Newsom will be the nominee. Bookmark this.

it's why trumpism without trump is a winner
i mean what is trumpism really, except a bunch of dumbed down, digestible catch phrases, that somehow the dems just can't or won't sayit's political fast food
-america first
-low gas prices
-strong military
-no illegal immigrants
-there's men, and there's women. not 50 genders
-capitalism is good
-cut taxes
-freedom from mandates
from an objective standpoint, who doesnt that appeal to
now ask yourself if anyone on The Squad has ever said one of those talking points
Considering the squad have routinely crushed their political opponents in elections I'm not sure why they would need to. I really don't understand how corporate and right wing dems getting smoked by the GOP has anything to do with progressives.
It doesn't
Also "America First" if you know anything about history has always been racist dog whistling to white supremacists.

Didn't he claim he was sitting out 2016 and was actively trying to get others to do the same?

I really need someone to explain to me why non progressives running on platforms that aren't even remotely progressive getting washed is somehow a referendum on progressives and their policies. Someone make it make sense.
They aren’t unserious they doing exactly what they are suppose to do lolI’m so glad I stopped obsessing over this shyt. What an unserious party the Democratic Party is
they're gonna cut fat somewhere...and they're not stupid enough to cut black voters.
why not?
India Walton.
She was an idiot for claiming to be a socialist. And she got washed by a write-in campaign.

Same difference. My advice for anyone black is to keep grinding and look out for your loved ones. Hold down a steady job and if you can move up, go for it. Because politicians aren’t looking out for you.

If she won you'd ignore her because it was just a mayoral race. Foh
yes, what a feat that the squad wins elections in dark blue cities
because that's definitely relevant in purple states and national electionsand yes, im aware that america first is rooted in white people's bullshyt. but that's only because trump is saying it. you wouldn't have a problem with biden or obama saying it, right? and if you would, it proves my point
theres nothing inherently wrong with citizens putting their own country first. to say otherwise is a loser mentalitydemocrats just can't appear to be proud of the country, if they're too busy apologizing for it. im not talking about what's right or wrong; we're talking about winning elections

Assuming you’re talking to nap about India Walton. That was extremely fukked up by the party leadership.
I think the key is championing progressive policies without people thinking you are a socialist or labeling yourself as socialist, and still being patriotic
do you not think bernie would do better if he wasn't clinging to mid century socialist terms?
