    The shock to me is that Kamala Harris is in the poll at all. What rallies is she hosting? Is she even making any media appearances? I wouldn’t be surprised though if the DNC pull out the super delegates to say AOC has lost day 1 if there is even going to be a 2028 election at all.

    Ok look I voted for Kamala but if a candidate fails can we please run someone one else? You don’t run the same person over again because the same people who felt like she was forced down their throats are still going feel like she’s being forced down their throats.

    And the same bs that was used against her will be used again. But people eat yhay shit up which is why it works.

    And her tactics of bring out appealing to Republicans again is probably whay she’ll do again and that’s going to lose more dem voters.

    The corporate Dems need to go away.

    Why does the Democratic party have a hard on for running failed politicians? Kamala lost, let others step up. AOC would do great in the Dem Primaries

    Wait why is Harris even running again? I don’t think she’s that bad but I can’t vote in US elections - the electorate rejected her.

    A poll looking 3 years ahead is about as accurate as an astrological chart (and just to be clear, those are worthless).

    She’s an amazing candidate. I’d vote for her. I dunno about the rest of the country tho. They seem to really appreciate white men when it comes time to vote. All other issues be damned.

    Tim Walz is a white dude. Democrats need to stop fucking around. We’re back to a place in history where women nor people of color are winning a presidential election. It’s the unfortunate truth.

    I’d vote for AOC over Kamala, 100%.

    I mean, I still voted for Kamala, but I wasn’t excited about it.

    Is this wise? As an outside observer I had the impression that Harris lost in part because of systematic, subtle and overt racism and sexism. All this applies to AOC, too. Do the Democrats want to lose? Don’t they have some sort of JFK look-alike, people actually want to vote? It’s not as if appearance wasn’t way more important in the US than things like the actual political agenda.

    Welcome to American politics, when the 2028 election begins in 2024 and the 2028 primary began in 2020.

    I’m so tired.
