I feel the country is too immature—way too immature.

They've run 2 women already and failed. Big Gretch is more likable than the 1st 2. But I don't think 4 years is enough to erase the failure of those 2 campaigns.

Some spineless empty vessel beholden to AIPAC, corporate interests, and the geriatrics of the party. Hakeem Jeffries?

i guess it's Hakeem? he's gotta poison pelosi's dinner or something though, first 
but until i see someone better emerge
he's got the youth/energy. he's got the geography. he's on the right part of the spectrum

He was on one of the eagles pod casts after they played the Steelers I can see he is trying to position himself as a “every man” early and his great value Obama vibes should go over well with most people. I can see him being an early riser until around early/summer 2028 when the stuff from earlier this year gets brought back up again, inevitably gets him a steady stream of bad press and hands the republicans the election to some un charismatic Trump knock offi guess it's Hakeem? he's gotta poison pelosi's dinner or something though, first

waiting for the next obama 2008 candidate/run is hurting the democrats
that was a once in a generation thing, if not lifetimegive me a competent guy who can make a charismatic speech, and appeal to a broad enough middle class base

Ironically the best chance of the Democrats have is when they watch the implosion of the Republican Party happen in 4 years because they have so many combustible people at the top vying for power

You don't have anybody willing to really play Robin to his Batman and you got a bunch of people who are going to be vying for the spotlight. They already haven't been in the building yet and they're already arguing amongst themselves.
Vivek, Elon and their personalities are not exactly equipped to take a backseat. And this is coming from somebody who thinks the Democrats have absolutely bungled the last 8 years.

I think if one thing that's been proven is 4 years is a lifetime in politics and we'll just have to see what happens
we just bet on that though
4 years ago, trump wasn't even supposed to be able to afford a campaign let alone escape jail time. all this 'just wait for them to fail' strategy/hope did a 180

That's exactly my point. Nothin is guaranteed in politics
