Actually, I think your map above is more misleading, in that it doesn't take county by county into account, which is how the votes are tallied, are they not?It's a misleading map. Here's a more accurate one of the populations.
As you’re lying about Newsom, you’ve listened toI would LOVE for Newsom to run in 2028.
As a failed governor of California, Gavin Newsom has demonstrated his incompetence in an executive position - just like Kamala Harris demonstrated her incompetence in an executive position (as Border Czar).
I would love for either of these people to be the Democratic Party's nominee for 2028.
It would almost guarantee the GOP another eight years in the White House.
Imagine what history books will say inYou are talking about men, just to be clear, thats what a "trans woman" is: a man.
Is that really the hill you want to die on in 2028? Think it over. Good luck.
What a remarkably ignorant argument.As you’re lying about Newsom, you’ve listened toetc liars building their reich-wing attack portfolio, as they’ve done with every candidate, like Hillary.
Yeah. When Crooked donnie "ran against Obama", Crooked donnie lost.
A turd like donnie trump isn't fit to shine Barack Obamas shoes. Thats just a fact.
It is accurate. The geographical map is misleading. Empty land doesn't vote.
Hence your logic being simplistic.
It's expected to be Congress and the presidency.
The measure of Clinton doing fine isn't his winning re-election.
There is no far left and they don't have far out ideas.
Republicans are far right and they have fanatical, un-American, corrupt, oligarchic policies. You show you have that radicalism.
Except it still elected Trump, didn't it? Let this sink in.
Despite Covid, despite January 6th, despite the fact that he is still a clown, he won more votes than anyone else in 2024. Democrats need to start asking themselves why.
Not at all. You asked if Scranton was more appealing to middle America than California.
Now, if you want your party to be the party of gender-fluid, purple-haired baristas, then Newsom is your guy.
If you want to appeal beyond that, you need someone who is going to appeal to Joe Sixpack.
Take Obama's win in 2008. He had a Congress of 60-40 Senators
If you aren't building lasting relations with those red states/districts, any gains you have there will be transitory.
No, the measure of him winning was that people were happy with the job he did.
IMO it seems Newsom is 'playing national politics' by getting headlines this week for opposing transgender women in women's sports. That he's bothering suggest the sort of thing he'd do to help build a 2028 presidential run. Getting press, 'standing out' from other Democrats, while not offending Democrats too much.
No, that's standard Democrat stuff.Sounds like he's planning to run as a Republican.
Are you kidding?
I've said a big part of why for a long time. Republicans have an enormous propaganda machine and political machine fueled by billions in corrupt spending.
No, I didn't. When people elected trump was it because New York or Florida are so attractive to Middle America?
I'd be happy with that, but it's not Newsom. If you want your party to be the party of the worst traitor in US history, the orange make-up pathological liar, sex criminal, many more types of criminal, then trump is your guy.
Ya, trump has so many things that should appeal to Joe Sixpack - if you count racism and hyping immigration.
No, he didn't. Almost the entire Congress was typing up seats, he lost a Senator, another was against his agenda... The window he supposedly had 60 seats was very small and included opponents.
That's not the measure of him doing a good job. It's one measure but wrongly assumes any president who has a positive approval rating (which trump doesn't) - or maybe even 'won the election' - is 'doing a good job'.
Hey, I hate Trump as much as anyone, but the reality is, he beat Hillary, who was the stand-in for Obama because he couldn't run for a third term.
Ummm, no, Hillary wasnt a "stand in for Obama", Hillary also lost to Obama just like Trump did. Derp.
He is "simping" for Steve Bannon today.He is disqualified for simping for Charley Kirk.
Well, he's all yours.He is "simping" for Steve Bannon today.
Gavin? Just watched it. Interesting that he would feature two of MAGA finest in his first few podcasts. It wasn't as interesting as a face to face confrontation. I'd be worried if Gavin was my standard bearer.Well, he's all yours.
So would I, if he was.Gavin? Just watched it. Interesting that he would feature two of MAGA finest in his first few podcasts. It wasn't as interesting as a face to face confrontation. I'd be worried if Gavin was my standard bearer.
When did he transition? /s
Noticed he interviewed Michael Savage as well. More Gary Hart, Monkey Business? Who is his Donna Rice?So would I, if he was.
This is just him pulling a Gary Hart.
I just realized a plausible thing - I wonder if Obama and Hillary's 'deal' didn't include just her being Sec of State, but also his endorsing her for president in 2016, explaining Biden not running.
I don’t know about that. It all depends on the state of the country or how many voters the Trump administration peeved off along with how the people view him and his administration. This happened last year when 57% of all Americans disapproved of the job Biden and company had done, the results was Trump was elected who had been rejected in 2020 by these same voters.Not a chance in hell he could win nationally.
I can't see it he, rightfully or wrongfully, is seen as an extreme progressive by a large number of voters in key swing States. I could be wrong but I just don't see it. The Dems need a strong, solid liberal who is seen as moderate..even if they aren't!!! Somebody like Shapiro, Moore, Beshear etc...I don’t know about that.

There are elections where anyone who’s challenging the incumbent will win. It all depends on the situation and circumstances of 2028. Almost any republican would have defeated the democrats last year, the same back in 1980 or 1952. The sitting president was so disliked, the people so unhappy with him it didn’t matter who the opposing party ran. If Trump’s overall job approval is down to around 40% as Biden’s was the democrat will win regardless of who that democrat is come 2028.
Biden had no desire to run in 2016 because he was still processing the death of his son. The fire just wasn't there.
Hillary had spent years building up support and donors and endorsements.
Sadly, America is too misogynistic to elect a woman.
If they want to win, they need to support a centrist who will retake the middle.
