All the succ dems are going to make noise for a few more months until Abuela, "after much agitation from the liberal base" throws her hat in for round three. The :decorum: will have the clown car of dems bow out quickly after that.

Nah I tihnk Hillary is going to keep doing her trial runs, throwing out an exploratory statement and after either being ignored, or ridiculed, she'll throw her support behind Harris and the machine will quickly line up behind her.

That said, Biden will almost certainly run too.

Warren might endorse Bernie this time though

If she runs against Trump he's going to hammer her for not endorsing Bernie in 2016.

"You're running on single payer, you're running on freebies for everyone, you're running on all these crazy things, why didn't you endorse Bernie in 2016? You want to do all the things he was talking about, why didn't you endorse? I'll tell you why, folks. She's a phony. Just like every other democrat. They're phonies."

I don't know much about Gillibrand at all beyond her being a "progressive" succ dem, but I think what the dude meant was that Trump's going to walk all over any opponent whose response to being mocked by Trump is to be indignant about it and say focus-tested poo poo like "When they go low, we go high" rather than just swinging back. Maybe he thinks Gillibrand is more of a scrapper like Bernie and Biden?

i think that her being the only one to tell franken to gently caress off demonstrated that she was the only one among the current crop of idiots who can figure out that :decorum: (as in deference towards powerful old rich white dudes) is a liability. during the election i expect her to act angrier than harris or booker or whoever will, which will help her

I think she is a succ elemental and she'll try to play trump's game (also a bad idea) and get dunked on.

giilibrand suffers from the same problem harris and every other non-biden democrat faces- they're completely unknown to 95% of the general public. and i'd even put biden on that list because nobody gives two shits about the vice president

trump is going to continue sucking up every last bit of media and it'll be impossible for someone who isn't already a household name to get any publicity

and if sanders somehow winds up the nominee i'm not entirely convinced the dnc and friends won't tacitly sabotage him since they prefer having trump as a foil

Who does this guy think he's arguing against anyway, someone from the 50's? Public spending has been completely separate from revenues for many decades. What a dork.

i think that "when they go low we go high" could work if the person was going high over some political vision other than their own self-righteousness. which in my life the only dem presidential candidates who have been able to communicate any sort of political idea were bernie and obama

like when obama's opponents from hillary through romney said he was a secret muslim or was going to give your money to """them""" he kept talking about jobs and healthcare

I'm hoping that the DNC overtly sabotages bernie after he wins the primary and then when he wins anyway, that is the final death knell of the democrats.
