Dean Phillips, a three-term representative from Minnesota’s 3rd district. He is a current member of both the Committee of Foreign Affairs and the Committee for Small Business.
He has been rumored to be running against Joe Biden in 2024. He is one of the most bipartisan members of Congress. He is also one of the wealthiest.
Really weird way to end your career, my man.
“Oh no, how dare the party support the incumbent when there are no other prominent candidates”
Democrats should find some alternatives and host debates. It’s almost, but not quite, too late.
Biden is so old and so boring that even this economy probably can’t save him. What other president what have a 40% approval rating with unemployment under 4%?
Biden is … so boring
As a politician should be. I really wish we could get past the manufactured outrage, pandering, bombast, and blatant lying that politics is, and look for competence. Nice, boring competence. Someone who gets stuff done rather than yelling about doing stuff. I want Jimmy Carter back
Announces that he’s changing parties to the Republicans in 3… 2… 1…
Strange. I mean it has been obvious all along that the Democratic party would support the incumbent. I would be really surprised to see another candidate come forward with the charisma and funding to be a serious contender. That candidate would most certainly not be this guy.
Everything you mentioned hints towards AOC. Maybe not funding but she could come up with by asking for voter support.
AOC would not be a serious contender at all. She’s way too extreme. Nobody can win without centrist support at this point, and AOC is not capable of winning that.
Not to mention the hurdle of the first woman president on top of that. Not saying I agree with that being a hurdle of course, but in reality it is.
A career criminal (with chronically bad spray tan) and host of the apprentice managed to do it, and he thinks you need a license to buy bread. I think she could manage and for her to be the first woman president would actually be a meaningful harbinger of change.
AOC would not be a serious contender at all. She’s way too extreme.
Extremism isn’t the problem. Having her name already turned into the GOP’s Pavlovian Minute of Hate is the problem.
She’s not extreme. She’s a liberal woman who came from a blue collar background. That’s literally all it takes to not be a real contender right now.
Politically, she’s pretty moderate, like every other dem in congress.
I have to say I agree. I like most of her proposals and I’d probably vote for her but she’d bring out the crazies for Drump. We really need a centrist like Biden until the crazies crawl back into their holes
Another fucking DINO bought out by the Republicans. Honestly he can go fuck himself and the rest of the Democrats whom think they’re becoming “too radical”. Fucking die mad you old senile fucks.
