So that's who the democrats will run in 2028

Irritatingly plausible. I'm going to be stoked if we get another election at all though.

We will. A free and fair one, though? Outlook not so good.

What’s the point of elections when it’s always already pre bought? AIPAC already bought everyone who would run for election; however, something happened on twitter and Trump and his goons are really upset at israel now.

Well we'll have an actual primary if there's an election so if he gets through a democratic primary, that's on democrat voters. I also don't think he wants to run.

very funny to see the results of the last few dem primaries and still think that voters choose who the candidate will be

Voters not seeing that they're getting played is its own problem. DNC can push whoever, up to voters to decide whether to follow or push back.
