Is no-one going to tell them?

[–] Tinidril@midwest.social 4 points 2 months ago

They have definitely heard. They just don't care.

[–] varyingExpertise@feddit.org 5 points 2 months ago

I don't think that is going to be necessary any more.

Tbh Idgaf. I really don't. Show up to the primaries, whoever wins gets my full support. I will volunteer and campaign for that person, whoever it is.

I said this at the time, why field a chancy candidate in a country of racists and misogynists unless you wanted to lose?

His name is Andy.

Andy Beshear is pretty centrist which is why he can get elected in Kentucky. And I know the opinion of centrists around here, they're conservatives. He might be able to win a general election, but can he win a Democratic primary? Well if he's the Golden boy, the party will shoo him in just like they did Hillary, even if there are other candidates that maybe could be more popular. Nothing like democracy in action in the Democratic party!
