2024 Dem Candidate

[CNS]

First of all, the Dems will view what happened last night as a win for Biden instead of the huge L for maga. So they'll wheel his weekend at Bernie's ass out there for the next two years, let's call it "the grassley."

Let's play fantasy tho. If Fetterman can recover from his stroke, he'd actually be a good choice. He's got progressive chops in a nice populist package who can't personally be attacked by bigots. Otherwise I think we're looking at Whitmer vs. Pete.

Fully agree.

I wish Booker had more traction. He's not too progressive (relative to the other options) and is for pub things like school vouchers. Given the shitshow that is leaders in the dem party, it's odd to me that he hasn't been able to break through.

You guys remember when the news covered up this story real quick? It literally just evaporated into the abyss.

He suffers from the same affliction as Beto: he's just kind of a dork. An enthusiastic dork, to be sure.

Pete B would be my pick but I just don't see it happening

It was nothing, even Fox News came out and said it was fake. Nice try!

Pete is my guy, too. It is disappointing to see so many saying he can't get it done because there are still too many homophobes. I'm not so sure.

The thing about Pete, Booker, etc. is that they are boring and moderate AF and can’t get past a primary. Same with any moderate pubs.

SD, do you think Biden and Clinton are far left progressive communists?

[cfbandyman]

I don’t think Michelle can win anything imo

She’d run rule Trump in the 4th inning

A Michelle Obama candidacy would send the wacko right wing fringe into apoplexy.

I don't think they could get any more weird/mad tbh. It's max already.

Correct, they'll find new lows but at this point they've frayed it all to the max

I wish we could get fresh faces and fresh ideas on both sides. I get really tired of 70+ year old white men as the options most years.

No clue who the dems will run, but I feel like DeSantis has to have the pub, trump clearly has overstayed his welcome and I don't think he could do it again.

Fully agree.

Second, if we can get past the stroke he would be the type of candidate dems, and really all americans, would want.

On the other hand, he is not so easy on the eyes. That seems to matter to some people.

Understand, but is DeSantis or trump a dreamboat? As long as he ain't facing Kennedy he could do ok

[Rage Against the McKee]

The democratic primary is pretty weird. Different states want different things from the party and it's really hard to predict who will emerge victorious. The republicans have always been a whole lot easier to predict, with the exception of Trump making the entire party his personal bitch in 2016.

Fair point, but you legit see idiots (including on this board) making memes are advancing the inscrutable position that those guys are, in fact, dreamboats. I'm going to need to see his wife before I make any conclusions.

boring and moderate does not disqualify you from advancing through dem primaries. recent history would suggest the opposite actually

Did you forget who the president is and what happened with him and the rest of the moderates during the primary season?

[MakeItRain]

Pre stroke Fetterman would beat your ass then steal your girl, and by your I mean your, not mine.

[MakeItRain]

They should nominate the most charismatic candidate they can find and stop saying things like "can't win because the bigots won't vote for them." If Joe Biden can win without campaigning, then anyone remotely likeable can beat whatever MAGA chud wins the death match.

The 2024 guy or gal won't have the benefit of running against trump. The few independents and third party voters left will be much more discerning with their vote.

Pre-stroke Fetterman was very good at arming himself and chasing down unarmed black men.

Ol' Shotgun (pointed at black dudes) John Fetterman
