Why is fucking Newsom, the most neoliberal establishment motherfucker to ever walk the earth, the first Dem to figure out you can take these assholes down by just using their tactics against them?
It's like if Pelosi just walked down onto the the chamber floor and just started yelling "okay boomer" every time someone tried to talk, while going the fortnight dance.
Just give me a fucking fair primary, please. I'm going to lose my goddamn mind if they ram Newsom through like they did with Clinton and Biden.
It depends on how much contempt they have for electorate. And their propensity to learn anything.
I don't like these odds
Didn’t learn much from 2016.
So in other words, Newsom IS going to be the nominee unless Hakeem Jeffries somehow becomes presidential material by developing a personality between now and 2028.
Personally I hope he Jeb!s the primary. The republican electorate very quickly figured out when an establishment candidate was being rammed through and rejected it spectacularly. Let's hope the Dems follow suit this time. There's still a lot of time between now and the primary.
If they won’t learn on their own, they must be taught.
