    Dem leadership is positioning themselves behind Gavin Newsom. They should be backing AOC but she’s too “woke” in their eyes.

      Exactly. The leadership has already picked Newsom, you can tell because he is already moving to the center.

      Harris lacks a key, critical asset to win the Presidency in today’s America: a penis. Newsom already has one, so is any a clear advantage.

        Harris’s issue was she kept telling people who can’t afford their rent and groceries that the economy is better than ever. She ran a dog shit centrist campaign that did nothing to motivate voters. Harris represented the status quo, same with Newsom. Both will get absolutely shredded in 2028 if they run.

        Let’s totally ignore that Hillary got the popular vote the first time and if the US didn’t have the E.C. than history would’ve been quite different.

          None of this is relevant. Neither party wants to change the voting system so only winning the popular vote is matters
