Harris can't and won't. In a strange twist I could see Tulsi flipping after serving 2 years, resigning and saying she wants to reform the Democratic party. Kind of Trump like. Problem with that is there's strong competition on the Right and would probably lose. Or she could run as a Republican and still probably win taking normal, not idiot Dem voters with her anyway.

Democrats really have nothing I can think of. Newsom will not poll well outside of the West Coast. WI, OH, MI and PA would be for sure loses. GA and FL she'd do well. Not a bunch of EV's, but could win Hawaii as someone from there. You know she'll get them federal funding.

Guys would vote for her as she's not a 10, but better looking than Kamala and god damn I'm not even gonna say anything about Hillary. She's a more intelligent and relatable woman for the woman vote. Ex-military.

Whoever plans on running in '28 they need to be hitting the big podcasts every year starting ASAP. Long form. No scripts or pre-planned questions. Start now and if you're in a cabinet position have a chance to explain what you're doing. Harris couldn't explain what she did at all for 10 minutes. Did no "real" interviews and even when she knew the question her responses could have been better stated by a retard.

Desantis is kind of like Newsom though depending who he's against. Ultimately if the next 4 years go well, it will likely be whoever Trump endorses. Harris is toast at this point is the overall point. Honestly wouldn't be surprised if she becomes a host on the View. She's a pro at saying nothing that makes sense. Joy or the black predator have to retire at some point. She'll get paid more than anything else she's qualified for. We need to keep female retards alive.

Kamala is a true republican supporter ;)

Kamala is another example of how it is easier to fool someone than it is to convince them they were fooled. Democrats are still in denial phase.

In all honesty, the Dems did not lose in a humiliating fashion. If you want to look at humiliation ... look at a prior generation's election, 1984.

To win only one's home state of MN and that ... with a paltry 3.7K+ votes is pathetic!

And D.C. is not a state, just a city which gets some electoral votes.



I double checked with the over 70 crowd and Mondale had the full backing of all the unions in the country but couldn't win any rust belt states and historically speaking, no Democrat ever loses Massachusetts and all of New England until Mondale showed up. Basically, once Mondale left the city limits of Boston, his candidacy tanked for much of the state.

In effect, despite the oil patch bust of the early 80s, the loss of manufacturing to Japan Inc, etc, the Dems lost their main constituency to Reagan even though Reagan was barely a year into an economic recovery and a recovery which was mainly composed of coastal sectors like Big Defense, Finance, etc.

A lot of this was placed on Mondale being touted as Carter II ... memoirs of gas lines, stagflation, and hostage crisis. Still, the message was clear ... Dems, get your act together or you'll never see the White House again.

Nah, in 2028 they will be dying on the Newscum hill.

I think the Dems have already made their excuses.

For instance, not propping up Harris from 2021 through 2024, but then, suddenly expecting that she'd sub for Biden in the final quarter. And then, if you listen to Congressman Cohen, he's pitched the trite topic that she's a victim of midwestern racism. Yes, the same places which voted for Obama back in 2008.

And when it's all tallied up, how badly did she lose?



For the most part, she won both the northeast and the west coast, along with ChiTown, MN, CO, and even flipped New Mexico. I wouldn't call that a crushing defeat for the Dems, just a sobering one.

And a defeat which just confirms the obvious, stop pretending that national elections are decided between Boston, NYC, DC, LA, and SF.

With a 54 (CA), 28 (NY) and 19 (IL) head start, yes those places (cities) make a difference. By default you're already at 101 out the gate. Toss in 11 (MA), 8 (OR) and 12 (WA). These people voted for Kamala Harris and got her 132 without doing a thing. That's usually a guarantee every POTUS cycle for the rest of our lives.

The Reagan/Mondale election was an anomaly we'll never see an election like that again. It would take an extreme gaffe by a candidate. Biden and Harris didn't even really campaign in '20 and '24. Yet they still got a good chunk of EV and popular votes.

Republicans get TX and FL. So a nice 70 point head start. Winning all the small states is a nothing burger generally. But say another 40 there. It's harder for Republicans to win a national election. They have to basically live in the midwest for 3 months.

Having been to both probably 10 times. CO and MN still confuse me. CO the most since they were the first weed state. Every single one of my heavy pot smoking friends in IL are extremely conservative. Straight R voters. I don't actually think I know a Democrat pot smoker besides one in North Carolina. Asheville (eye roll). Hippy loser hell hole.

CO is a perfect example of what happens when libs from CA take over, tons of parasitic lib boomers took over CO. The exodus of the last four years has been more conservative.

WookieMan says

Yes, but we already know this. Even Bob Dole and Bush Jr didn't expect to get those areas. The reason why Trump's first election was so prominent was that he showed that one needs the rust belt vote, to win it all. Thus, there's this divide ... the big coastal cities = Democrat, everywhere else is a toss up.

WookieMan says

The Reagan/Mondale election was an anomaly we'll never see an election like that again.

Still, it happened. Look, I was born and raised in Massachusetts and I've never heard of a Democratic candidate, garnering only 39.x% of the votes on the South Shore of Boston. In fact, many hard core Democrats were livid that the party went w/ Carter's "Loser VP" ... their words, not mine. Many MA residents were not fans of the 'The Gipper' but since defense spending was hot, and Ted Kennedy got a lot of that money directed towards MA tech companies, ppl were willing to put up with Reagan in returns for the local economic benefits.

It's a back/forth region. Kerry didn't carry it and lost. Still, not enough Electoral counts in general.

Karl Rove ran all those 'Swift Boat' ads in Ohio, which was all that Kerry needed, to win the Electoral College but lose the Popular Vote.

“In private meetings and at public events, elected Democrats appear leaderless, rudderless and divided. They disagree over how often and how stridently to oppose Mr. Trump. They have no shared understanding of why they lost the election, never mind how they can win in the future.” — The New York Times

Maybe that’s because the four years of “Joe Biden” was little more than a vaudeville show in front of the curtain, distracting you from what was going on backstage — the world’s biggest political racketeering operation as conducted by a vast bureaucracy gone wild and mad: the blob in florid, mature efflorescence, doing its blob-thing to the max, looting and punking the nation. Now it is all being uncovered, disclosed, unmasked.

Think of the Democratic Party as the entertainment arm of the overall operation. Its aim has basically been to induce you to doubt your sanity. You were asked to swallow one fabulous absurdity after another — lockdowns, vaccines that don’t prevent illness, mostly-peaceful arson, US soldiers in puppy masks, pronoun police, shoplifting-is-reparations, the wide-open border — an epic acting-out of manifold mental illness in living color. The climax was drag-queens in the primary schools, obese men in fright-wigs presenting nightmare varieties of Mom-as-monster, often with some exposure of their male junk as part of the act. Suburban mothers watched approvingly, insisting on video that this was all wholesome, edifying fun for the kiddies (while some of the more insane moms went even further at home, coaxing their little kids toward medical “transitioning”).

Can you grok how insane all this was? So, if you were a Democratic Party strategist, perhaps the first thing you’d consider these days is to stop being insane. Second, at this particular juncture, you might consider apologizing to the people of this land for your heinous antics of recent years — like an alcoholic parent who has acted very badly against the family — and promise to make the effort to get your shit together. This is obviously the part that Democrats are struggling with now, and it explains why they pretend to be at such a loss to make course corrections. Of course, any further failure to come to grips with all this will lead to the death of the Democratic Party. Never in history has a political faction gone out in such pathetic ignominy.

CO has a ton of Illinoian's now. I have probably a dozen former friends and classmates living there around Denver. More sun and unless you're in the mountains the weather is the same as IL or better. Most are actually snowboarders.

A lot went due to the weed situation to be honest as well. I wouldn't move for drugs but it is a great place, just not politically. I do not like the vibe when I'm there. A show at Red Rocks is fun, but the city proper just seems scummy to me. The foothill town like Evergreen or Blackhawk are fine. Otherwise it's just basic suburbia and city. Not my jam.

Democrat Who Almost Unseated Lauren Boebert Says His Party is Just ‘Twenty Big Cities, Aspen and Martha’s Vineyard’

A Colorado Democrat who ran twice for Congress and almost defeated Lauren Boebert has ripped his party’s toxic political brand.

Adam Frisch, who almost defeated Rep. Lauren Boebert in 2022 and ran again unsuccessfully in 2024, said in an interview with The Wall Street Journal that the party’s brand was in the toilet.

Democrats lost ground with nearly every demographic group last November, including minorities, women, low-income voters and those without college degrees.

“Twenty big cities, Aspen and Martha’s Vineyard—that’s what’s left of the Democratic Party,” lamented former congressional candidate Adam Frisch.

“And I’m not exactly sure those 20 big cities are getting the best version of the Democratic Party.”

Patrick says

“And I’m not exactly sure those 20 big cities are getting the best version of the Democratic Party.”

The best version of the Dem party would be Trump, Tulsi, RFK Jr and Elon.

60 Minutes allows Kamala Harris to lie while the cameras are rolling. When they’re off they confront her asking her for the truth.

There's no way in hell the Democrat apparatus plan from the start was to remove Joe Biden and put her on the ticket. If we all remember within hours they were floating every Midwest Blue Governor to run for a couple days. Either Joe or Jill decided to roll them over when Joe Biden came out and announced his endorsement of Kamala Harris. Joe or Jill knew that would fuck them over.

Trump should give the Bidens a pass, if the straighten up and help with the prosecutions. There's no way in hell Joe was making the policy for any of the EOs he signed, and there's no way in hell Jill was writing them on her own for him. They were just more focused on running their family crime business, until it morphed into keeping Hunter out of jail.

I wonder if ABC will continue to push those bogus polls, showing Kamala as the 2028 front runner?

But what if the anger is due, at least in part, with the many betrayals of progressive ideals during the pandemic. Supposedly the party of the “working class,” the Democrats threw workers under the bus with “vaccinate or terminate” mandates. Supposedly the anti-Big Pharma party of “my body, my choice,” the Democrats forced people to take hastily approved injections they didn’t want, which is especially infuriating in the harsh hindsight that the stupid shots never worked and were basically all risk.

How, pray tell, do you hold a party together after those Shakespearean levels of betrayal? ...

The media prefers, for obvious reasons, to chalk up Democrat discontent to not opposing the President. But maybe —whether voters consciously realize it or not— it has more to do with lockdowns, passports, masks, and experimental jabs. Instead of Democrat officials’ terminating unvaccinated workers, vaccinated Democrats are terminating them.

I believe the Democrats are reaping the bloody harvest of their pandemic excess. That is what I think is happening to them. I think the Democrats have post-vaccine syndrome. It’s a political autoimmune disorder causing Democrats to attack their own party. And I think it will ultimately be fatal.

Democrats display the most vile hatred and contempt of the sacrificial victim people. They think that lying in front of cameras of the captured MSM press organs wearing fancy bespoke suits will still work when their actions are a bunch of Satanic inversions.

First days Biden Actor was in office he eliminated 60,000 Union jobs on the Canadian gas pipeline for the Rockefellers, and even that did not wake up the base.

"They" are only upset because "they" can't grift and graft with abandon anymore.

I get the joke, but dear god I hope she doesn't run.... or maybe I do. Another nail in the coffin and we might be able to finally bury the Dems for 2 decades.

The closest of a joke running for POTUS was McCain/Palin in my lifetime. Another Harris run would be hysterical. She should just get her spot on the View already. Ramble on about nothing and grab another $3-5M a year from a network/show I'll never watch.
