    Newsom would tell the base to fuck off while funding ICE and war, guaranteeing republican victories in 2030 and 32. He would be a Biden 2.0.

      Biden did a lot of great things during his time as president and it’s a testament to the failing american education system and the right-wing propaganda machine how people couldn’t see it.

        He also enabled genocide in Palestine and set the stage for Trump to win

        All in all, a net negative to the world.

            That’s like saying the fever is what’s making you feel bad.

            Like, sure. But you’re blaming the symptom not the cause. It’s the virus that did it.

            Wagging your finger at those disillusioned by Dems being shit clearly hasn’t worked multiple times now. Maybe we should try something else.

        It’s also a testament to how bad the Biden administration failed at messaging.

        Biden’s BBB and infrastructure spending was some of the best legislature of our lifetimes(yes BBB was watered down, corrupted, and did not meet the moment, but the bar is in hell).

        Instead of doing full-court media blitz to advertise this victory to voters, they said almost nothing. Too afraid that Biden would reveal his dementia to the public, I guess. Fewest press conferences in modern presidential history, by far.
