It would be the most Democratic Party move ever to push Joe out and announce Hillary again.

It’ll never happen. It’s such an idiotic thought as to make me wonder what the hell your motivations are.

If it wasn’t clear I don’t want it to happen…but over the years I have felt pretty disenfranchised by the actions of the party vs the will of the voters, and I am still going to vote for them.

Last time we didn’t vote for Hillary we ended up with a fascist Supreme Court. I’ll hold my judgment.

This is why things have gotten progressively worse, they can do anything they want, including ignoring their base, and rest assured it won’t cost them votes.

Harris is even more unlikeable than a corpse and hrc, so the DNC will likely settle on her.

Why?

He’s probably racist, or sexist, or both. People love to assume everyone else has their same crappy views.

There needs to be some sort of mini primary, not a Harris coronation. having said that, the chances of the DNC managing to organize something like that and not fuck it up are minimal.

I agree but flip side we cause a bunch of infighting and lose steam. I’ll take either honestly.

Agreed. I mean look at how they fucked up 2016. They were going to shove Hillary down our throats no matter what. Thanks for that by the way, DNC. Really worked out for us.

I like the guy, but I think they’re going to want someone who can bring in a swing state.

Nah, Trump doesn’t live in New York, now a swing state, anymore. He lives in Florida, now firmly Republican.

Warren/AOC?

Do a mini primary. I personally don’t think Harris is a best fit. I mean I’m going to vote for whatever nitwit they put into the slot, because fuck Trump with razor wire, but I’d like to at least have a chance to vote for which nitwit we get.

Boo, Kamala is less electable than Hillary and we saw how that went. Trump didn’t even win an election, Hillary just lost one. We’d see the same thing happen again.
