A video on how existential the political crisis in our country is

Great video. I warned about a lot of this years ago and the attitude was completely dismissive. If Newsom is the nominee democrats are screwed. They need a radical transformation.

I thought you were feeling hopeful before about Republicans losing badly and were starting to like Newsom:

That’s because the plan is to just let republicans screw up enough so that people feel forced to vote for them and they don’t have to change at all.

And to be honest it’s working, they’re actually doing slightly better in polls and everyone’s lining up behind Newsom.

That’s not me being hopeful. I’m saying Newsom will be a repeat of Biden. Just kicks the can down the road 4 years without fundamentally shifting the trajectory probably making the eventual situation worse.

Only advantage is that younger voters lean left so time is on dems side in that regard.

Yeah.....that's honestly one of my main worries.

However, if say Newsom were to become president in 2028, he undoubtedly would be a much stronger communicator for the country than Biden was during his presidency. So, if he governs successfully like Biden did, but is also able to win the messaging war unlike Biden and Harris who failed at that, then he would have a much better shot than either Biden or Harris did in winning the presidency again in 2032. It would be like how Obama won re-election in 2012.

Nevertheless, the fact that the Democratic party are still struggling to win the messaging war because of the dominance of the right-wing propaganda and how behind the development of the liberal/progressive media ecosystem, deeply worries me about the future of elections.

The only reason people vote for republicans, is that they hate socialism. That's it, you two are the problem.

The democrats have never put forward a socialist candidate.

The programs you call “socialism” are some of the most popular in the country.

There's no such thing as a "socialist program", Raze.

Try, for once, actually sticking your head out of your bubble and listening to what republican voters actually say.

Then there are no “socialists” in the democrat party, the most left wing members just call for expanding or increasing federal programs, which we already have.

The idiotic reckless language used by people like AOC is more harmful than any programs people support. You actually may be right though, AOC is so stupid she probably doesn't even know what socialism actually is, her and bumbling Bernie think social security is socialism.

Was it Jeffries or Schumer that went Socialist when I wasn't looking? What "radical policy" did this, all-knowing Socialists?

It was the republicans radical policy. Now we're winning, because Americans want sanity, and you want us to copy the republicans losing strategy!

Heil Marx! ✋️

 

You're in a cult

Your reasoning is so idiotic and bad faith it’s unbelievable

Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris were not socialist, Schumer and Pelosi were not socialist, Democrats lost both elections with them while Schumer and Pelosi were representing congress.

Your conclusion? This is socialisms fault.

Now democrats are still not socialists, but actually have more open talk of socialism and even socialist candidates like Mamdani representing them at least in the media.

Democrats start winning, your conclusion? It’s because they’re not socialist.

Its a idiotic unfalsifiable opinion. If democrats lose it’s because socialism, if they win it’s because they aren’t socialist, meanwhile they never were socialist in either case.

Just going to completely ignore what the thread is about?

Socialist amnesia?
