    Who’d be the dream choice for american democrats? Hillary Clinton? Michelle Obama (who’s not even a politician) with Barrack as advisor or VP?

    I get that this is Lemmy and most people here are communists who’ll say Bernie Sanders, and that’s fine too, but wouldn’t he turn away a bunch of voters?

      Bernie would easily beat Trump. Do I think the DNC would let him? Not without INTENSE pressure. More likely, the DNC would probably go with a Democrat governor from a swing state. At worst, they will run Clinton who already ran and lost to Trump in 2016.

      To me it seems like it would obviously be Kamala. But people hate her for some reason that people can never seem to articulate. 🤔

        She’s a cop that was picked as the VP DURING the George Floyd riots.

        Most of her political career has been making laws harsher for every day living and giving the police a higher budget.

        I have genuinely no idea why anyone thought it was a good idea to pick a pro-cop VP while the police are actively killing people.

          She’s a woman and black. It was mostly pandering to the left. Who would be better than her? I don’t really know. Maybe Pete? Possibly AOC? The democratic party is really lacking good young charismatic leaders. The old guard refuses to bring up and support more young up and comers.

          Actually typing this made me remeber Adam Schiff. I really like him ever since he stood up to Trumps corruption.
