Shame AOC and Bernie could not hijack the Democratic Party like Krasnov did to the fucking GOP.
I wish her the best of luck if she decides to run and she would stomp on Vance.

...they'll run abbott, not vance...
You think you'll have elections again? Lmao
A hell of a lot needs to happen before AOC has a snowballs chance in hell in 2028. Like, Trumps impeachment — to start.
The DNC will use all their resources to sabotage her and place a Israeli loyalist that supports insider trading, forgiving the criminals in charge now, not reversing any of the shareholder first policies and deregulation and continuing to ratchet us to Nazi land while gaslighting us about how great the economy is because line go up for the capitalist class.
Part of the reason why social democracy is so important on the path to socialism is because line must go up for everyone or we’re totally screwed. I have no doubt the DNC will do whatever it can to undermine a candidate like AOC, but if we can implement a policy like Medicare for all, that will be a massive win for getting to the goal in more ways than one.
Awww, that's fun. People think we're going to have an election in 2028.
Ahh yes... The very free and fair 2028 elections we'll being having. The Republicans definitely won't try every trick in the book to manipulate them or stop them outright. Nevermind establishment Dems fucking over primaries to shoehorn in their milquetoast candidates, while fucking over actual progressives!
I am so looking forward to voting our way out of fascism/ a dictatorship, as has absolutely been exhibited to work multiple times through history.
My fucking neighbor has a Trump 2028 sticker right under his Israeli flag
Just another example of how America is collapsing under the weight of its own corporate/oligarch dictatorship, corruption, ignorance, racism, and mental illness epidemic.
An intelligent, empathetic leader is basically tied with a traitorous, criminally sociopathic, con artist who possesses zero morals or ethics, and literally works for someone he previously called Hitler...
If the US weren't a failed state, Trump would be in prison and Vance would be a fucking nobody.
JD Vance has zero charisma, idk how he can be in the race but, well... Trump.
Because he gets a baseline of like 35% just for having R next to his name.
I had no idea who this JD Vance person was until he became trump's running mate. Dude you're not popular or interesting on your own. Don't act like people actually like you, couch fucking baby.
You've been flying blind. JD's been the spectre haunting American politics since the Obama Era. That creepy little turd's backed his way up the drainpipe of American politics with the help of everyone from James Dobson to Oprah. He's the Republicans' Hillary Clinton.
He's a Peter Thiel project. They met when Vance was in either college or law school. Shillbilly never would have met any of those people without Thiel's help. Probably would never even have gotten a book deal trashing his family.
His best-selling memoir was turned into a Ron Howard film that got 2 Oscar nominations. He wasn’t nobody.
People didn't want Kamala because she wasn't democratically elected as the leader of the party in a primary so they let full blown fascism take over instead. They felt it was more important to send the Democrats a message instead of actually keeping some minimal form of democracy and freedom. 🙄
So they'll probably not vote for AOC if she becomes leader of the Democratic party anyway because of some minor excuse, like how she supported Israel's right to exist, or something. And the US will end up with a third Trump mandate.
I hope the US will prove me wrong. My hope in Americans doing the right thing is pretty low.
Kamala pr was so terrible that she lost because of the issue of economy and border protection
Fuuuuck yes!!!!
JFC, "JD" "Vance" is about as appealing as a bucket of piss. How in the fuck is this even close?
I get it - AOC doesn't have a dong and so a lot of mouthbreathers rule her out on that alone. But still, Christ. This is the stupid bootlick that called Donvict a Nazi and is now his VP and sits there and chastises one of our allies like some kind of cartoon bully.
Vance won't be the candidate and everyone knows it but Vance.
I'd bet on Tucker Carlson. 🤢
It's going to be Donald Trump Jr. They won't even need to change the hats.
I'm all for a women president eventually, but perhaps the elections during an attempted fascist take over isn't the time.
Some men will simply not vote for a woman, it's sad, but it's reality. If a woman is on the ballot the democrats will lose again.
The time will come, just not yet with stakes this high. I would love to see AOC as the first female president.
Attitudes like yours are why Democrats lose elections. We talk ourselves out of our best candidates. We try to compromise with Republicans right out the gate, and try to select the more moderate 'electable' candidate.
Your line of thinking got us Kerry, Clinton, and Biden.
Trying to select a candidate based on "electability" is bullshit, because you just end up selecting for the most uninspiring centrist who can't get people to the polls.
You think you're selecting for winners, but you're taking your strongest pieces off the board.
I'm still of the VERY strong opinion that Hillary and Kamala didn't lose because they were women, but because they were Hillary and Kamala.
I don't know, but maybe we shouldn't base our gender litmus test off of literally the most unlikeable women the DNC could have picked.
