Let’s be real none of these people are making it to 2028 with a primary season of 3 years. Look at Gavin Newson, promised to block a billionaire tax and claims genocide in gaza is not real. These are not serious contenders. You can tune out of the horse race until January 2028

It's like they're trying to pick the most unlikable people on the planet. Like, why not push Pritzker. He's still a fucking billionaire turbolib but he's infinitely more likeable then everyone on that list and also will still absolutely not shake the dem establishment. Of course there are lots of real progressives they could get behind who would be seriously popular and provide a refreshing alternative to the current status quo and absolutely guarantee a win but they'll never do that, so if they want to actually still have a shot then they'd need to pick someone likeable. Who likes any of these ghouls.
The Dems absolutely aren't even trying to be controlled opposition. The only people they're opposing are their own voters
Here's the thing - who else is there?
The party is completely lost.
Damn, it's like by blocking all movement leftward they redirected all the party's energy elsewhere
This is the most important election of our lifetime, again. So you must 
for the ~~moderate~~ wing of fascism. 
Get to the battle box!
Hello JD Vance/Erika Kirk 2028
I'm calling Vance/Rubio
or Rubio/RFK
you can't impeach a husband and wife for the same crime 
It's just gonna be Trump 2028 again
no it's our messy queen's turn
now more than ever
Wow. No spoilers please
Don't worry, we won't be allowed to vote at all
I would love to walk into a convention full of centrist dems where these candidates are being announced, somehow gain control of the pa system, and amidst the applause and self-congratulating rip an immense 10-15 second fart on the intercom.
So bad the the microphone has to be thrown away afterward, and democrats consider trying me for sedition.
How people can be so chronically unserious is beyond my comprehension
What is to be done about the fucking Democrats?
I have no hopes in entryism anymore. I don’t resent anyone for feeling compelled to participate in the party. But in my heart of hearts I truly believe this party must be supplanted and destroyed.
They do much more to perpetuate the duopoly of party politics than any other entity in America and they make damn sure that any credible threat from a third party is seen as a joke by any ostensibly “gettable” political constituency.
They are as existential a threat as the republicans, if not more so, but for different reasons.
Gotta get involved in my local PSL chapter this year
Officially the DSA's goal is to incubate a socialist caucus within the dems until its large enough to break out and form its own party. That said, I don't think any of the DSA reps are actually onboard with that plan. Its more like being in a good position to start a socialist party if the Dems implode.
If their sleeper cells aren't actually on board with this "plan" then it's not a plan, more like wishful thinking. Might as well hope a centrist randomly becomes a communist after getting elected, it's as much of a "plan" as this
They're not sleeper cells, they're openly socialist representatives caucusing together. But yes it is as much wishful thinking to hope our current reps would break with the dems as much as it is us getting enough socialist reps in office to do so.
I dont think that's in the program? Sounds Socialist Majority Caucus specific.
Dirty break strategy is a part of a national resolution to build an independent socialist party. SMC was against it and just wants to do basic entryism.
Polls two years out are pretty meaningless. Only there for people who desperately want the horse race.
No Biden? Guess I'm staying home this year too 
I was told only Biden can defeat Trump
Hunter vs. Eric. Failson runoff let’s fucking goooo
ngl jd loosing primary to Eric/either Trump kid would be hilarious
surely trump can't run for a fourth term
bloody battle
And it's a grouping of the most sauceless people imaginable. It's going to be newsom vs. Kamala and potentially Buttigeg with a really small chance for AOC somewhere in the mix
hand the election to republicans
Always been their goal, sometimes they fail to accomplish it.
Hey, why not throw John Fetterman on the list as well
he's running as a republican
Why would he go out of his way to alienate the voters like that?
The RCP matchups showing incredible levels of Brandonification.
Oh my god Vance v Newsome has Newsome losing that's incredible. These polls are so ridiculously early and that one point is well within a margin of error but that's honestly hilarious. How could anyone lose to Vance. You may as well exit politics forever

AOC will probably run and everyone will pretend she is not winning for at least six months
Everyone a zionist lmao
fork found in kitchen
Literally none of them have any charisma either
Trump's dead body would roll over any of these freaks
it's the Democratic Party
No one will even bring up palestine in debates, little shitheads will again vote lesser evil, the imperial regime is truly a sight to behold
