The next Democratic candidate needs to be a white man

Kyle Kulinski was just predicting that the Democrats’ next ultra-orthodox, reactionary response will be to try upping their own fascistic tendencies thinking it will actually work in their favor the next go-round.

So, sorry to say this posting comes as no surprise whatsoever. So predictable it’s tedious, in fact.

Sorry to be a killjoy OP, they’ll just make themselves look all the more out of touch to typical would-be Trump voters.

Or not. We'll see where we are in 2028, assuming we still have a functioning democracy and an election to win.

This is so stupid.

Democrats will never win a presidential election again.

They’ll get an occasional House seat to make the ruse look authentic.

They should have done that this time around. White, male, Christian, moderate liberal, etc. No radical far leftist , like Bernie. No threats of taking guns away. Oh well.

Unlike white women, black women have often been the chief bread winner for their family, while white women have the luxury of filing their nails and being cunty, entitled "I demand to see the manager" Karens while hubby toils and brings home the bacon.

^ There are no solutions. We are done.

Grieve, accept and move forward. Stop being naive.

Agree, OP.

OP thinks it's wrong to hate gays but okay to hate trans and non-binary people

How about not hating any LGBT people? If you want hate, vote Republican

R5 What does this have to do with the discussion at hand?

R1 Hopefully it won’t be a black tranny sex worker.

I think the next Dem candidate needs just to be a good and streetwise, self-made person, who isn’t advanced-degrees rich and common-sense-communication-and-proritizing-skills poor. We need to start running our country more like a business and less like some woke virtues-signaling crusade.

Trump already said, "You only have to vote for me once, and after that don't worry about it," so I take him at his word. Before worrying about the next Democratic candidate, the biggest concern should be whether we will have free and fair elections again. Do you trust an emboldened Trump administration to hold credible elections that may weaken his or his party's hold on power? We cant look to the legislature or judiciary for protections, either. MAGA will be in full control.

We had a chance to stop him and didn't. The electorate chose hate, division, and retribution over democracy and everyone will suffer the consequences of that decision for years to come.

Andy Beshear is the guy.

It’s great that you think we ever stand a chance at a real election again. I wish I was that hopeful. I’m sadly just hopeless.

Jesus, some of you here are fucking dense as a rock. There will be NO elections in 2028 or anytime after that. There will be appointments only by the President and ratified by a supermajority traitor congress.

The 2028 election theory is so cute, but it is also insanely ill-informed. When the 2025 playbook is run through, this country will be unrecognizable.

No, dumbshit.

Gavin Newsom and Pete would make a great team.

If America trusts old white men, then have at it, Gavin. Or Pritzker.

Yeah, forcing Democrats into supporting the Trans Agenda is a huge losing proposition. It is not "hate" to admit men aren't women and that gender dysphoria needs to be treated with intense therapy.

"Gender Affirmative Care" is abuse and scientific gibberish.

Insisting on a white male leader is a great way to earn the support of the women and POC that make up the backbone of the Democratic Party 👍

R21, you mean the black women and men that went harder for old man Biden than they did for Kamala? It's so insulting to assume that blacks will only vote for blacks and have no reasoning abilities.

Actually more than just a White Male, we also have to drop the "moderate" likeable guy. He needs to be a very aggressive, charismatic in your face, I am fighting for you man that the blue collar beer drinking guy connects with. Not I feel your pain washy washy guy. college educated, can we all get along guy. THAT is what America wants.

And who would that be? Thre isn't any such person other than Gavin and he has real liabilities.

Gavin is a fighter, but can’t see him connecting with the middle of america for a win.

Plus one can smell his narcissism and ego a mile away.

Would fuck him, tho.

Yes, but Trump's narcissism is smellable from a hundred miles away, but tinged with ignorance and racism.

Americans like bumper sticker bromides with bonus points if they're anti-black and hispanic. It's not rocket science.

I'm sitting here just waiting for Trump to start royally screwing over his white voters. He only gets their attention when the bodies start piling up...and they will.

^^^Oh, its coming R27 and they will have no excuse for doing it to themselves. They thought other groups would be targeted, which they were fine with. Don't expect any sympathy from those of us who knew this would be the outcome by electing the asshole again. The wait won't be long.

I hope Trump goes right back to attacking cops and union labor, maybe outlawing police and fire-fighter unions altogether!

They literally fucked around and will find out that he's loyal to no one but himself. Thinking they're better than other Americans and everyone else be damned. They are in for a harsh reality check that they enabled. Can't blame migrants, minorities, Democrats, Kamala or Biden for it either.

[quote]Gavin is a fighter, but can’t see him connecting with the middle of america for a win.

We need someone more like a redneck.

The next candidate needs to call every lie a lie

A redneck, straight white guy. Preferably anti-abortion and pro-gun.

If Pritzker gets on Wegovy, then Pritzker.

It takes a billionaire to beat a billionaire.
