I think it would be easier not to feel the cold rain if Day 1 wasn’t a 24hr wall of “Jeffries House Soeaker!!!” “Schumer says” spam clogging the attempted hope scroll. Didn’t we just vote against that, what is even happening, I thought progress won, but…

And here we are.

Wait have you missed the whole conversation around "No Schumer, No Jeffries" and "Choose someone else!"?

It’s mainly a niche Reddit and Lemmy convo. Schumer is breaking through such that my sense of the news pulse right now is that replacement may be allowed. But not Jeffries. That appears to be a wall.

I'll take the victories we can achieve and I'll set my sights forward to the day we can achieve the rest.

Ousting Schumer as SML in itself would be huge. And Jeffries' seat is up for reelection every two years.

Yeah, but we don’t have much time. 2 yrs to build and then it’s 2028.

You know who else is poking his head up in the mainstream flows? Buttigieg. He’d already started pre-campaigning for a 2028 Presidency, then hid like the rest of them. He’s the most attractive establishment Dem the DNC has. (That’s not an endorsement, just my read of the situation.) My money is on him as their main for 2028.
