      I’m not about celebrities running for political office, however, if Jon decided to run, I firmly believe he would have Obama level aura and be able to win.

      Sure are a lot of “both sides are the same” vibes going on in this thread. Keep getting republicans elected, im sure that will fix things.

      Edit. I absolutely agree dems need to make changes, but those things that need changed are nowhere near as bad as what the republicans bring. If you think both sides are the same then I can only assume you speak from a place of immense privilege if republicans don’t affect your life negatively enough to vote against them.

      The 80 year olds and Corporate shills that run the DNC are out of touch with the average citizen you say? I’m sure top minds in the DNC are working on a viral TikTok dance to address these concerns.

      Ken Martin, Chuck Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries need eviction notices before the end of the day.

      It’s long overdue for the DNC to clean house. Don’t give a nickel to the party. Give direct to candidates.

      Vote them out then

      Pelosi is gone, Schumer will be next, every single one of the old guard needs to go.

      It is. Which is why this election is so important. The takeover of the dnc by new people and actually left wing people has begun and they will inject the voice of the people into the party.

      This is why the primaries are so important. To remove all the dead weight

      its because money has completely captured politics and democrats can’t get funding without the support of rich people.

      something has to break. need to reverse citizens united for starters, and probably go much further such as public financing of elections

      The sad part is that there are people like AOC and Mamdani who are clearly finding success, and showing what it takes to win hearts and minds as a Dem in 2026, but the party would rather flounder than move even one inch to the left.

      I give zero fucks about what anybody has to say about who I should vote for

      I’m voting for whichever top candidate isn’t MAGA wherever that leads me, and I don’t need to know more than that

      Please American voters: don’t be idiots

      The coming elections is not “can I get my favorite Dem rep or MY version of political shangrila”. It’s simply: make sure the republicans lose

      It’s not about the dems winning. It’s about the republicans losing

      Cool to know. He also held a Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear and proceeded to „both sides“ the whole thing.

      Would love to see a hard retirement age of 70 (or whatever). Hard for younger voters to identify with many of the olds, and the olds seem to remember and try to operate in a (somewhat) collegial political world that no longer exists.

      Apologies to Bernie and I’m sure a few others, but IIRC 5 of the 6 dems who caved on the last shutdown, killing ACA tax subsidies, were over 60.

      Democrats need to take off the gloves and do their own CPAC, Heritage Foundation and Project 2029. Period.

      This was my first year in the weeds of this shit in Colorado. I always voted, went to protests, all that. But this year, I was going all in. Our Congressional district looks winnable for the first time ever.

      You have to do county caucus. You know who does county caucus? Nobody. I had 15 people at my table and was the youngest there by 30 years. I’m 43. Every other Precient had 4 or 5 tops. Some where empty. Literally, no one bothered. 

      Then after some hefty loud arguments, I got to go to State Assembly. We had two progressive grassroots candidates trying to get 30% for ballot access, and then a heavily funded person from DC who move here less than a year ago. She already had ballot access, but did caucus anyway to try to ensure the other two wouldn’t make the primary ballot. You know how many people show up to State Assembly? Not many.

      This an incredibly stupid move, as one of them did. They were going to split the progressive vote (more likely, one would have dropped. They’re both smart people and know the game), but now it’s her and one other option. 

      This isn’t an assumption. The DC insider’s chief of staff TOLD ME THIS.

      It was a filthy, rotten thing to do to ensure people without millions in backing can’t get to the primary ballot. And she’s so going to get her ass kicked if she wins the primary. She pissed the ever loving fuck out of every progressive doing this. I’ll still vote for her if she’s the candidate because it’s better than the alternative, but to hell with her.

      It’s terribly undemocratic, but that’s how rules get bent. It gets decided by a bunch of bored retirees.Their voice matters, but it shouldn’t be the only one.

      The main problem right at this moment is that old Dems don’t want to give up power like Washington did as president. Hell even Bernie needs to pass on the torch at this point. This is getting out of hand when Sen. Feinstein is confused prior to a vote, when 80 year old senators are seeking re-election. When Biden waffles on running despite not being able to stay awake(LIKE TRUMP) at meetings-by the way the president makes over $500k a year and should be held to the highest standard.

      This is ridiculous. I’m from MA and love Mackey and Warren but they need to pass the torch. Countless examples from other states.

      The Republican party is using the Democratic party as a ratchet to move the Overton window to the right. The rope can pull to the right, but never to the left. This leaves the modern Democratic party where Reagan was now and the Republcans are a full on fascist kleptocracy.

      I just listened to the Pod Save America interview with the head of the DNC. That had to be the most incompetent sounding person I’ve heard in a long time. Like it was so bad it made me entertain controlled opposition conspiracy theories.

      Hey Jon, I think I know a guy who could unite the party. He has a history of standing up for vets and 9/11 first responders. A real stand up guy who is comfortable in front of a camera.

    28. OnTheFenceGuy on

      I mean, he’s right, and I love him. But the guy has absolutely pulled so much “both sides” horseshit since he’s been back.
