We’re picking who is going to lead our country based on how cheap it is to get a TV spot for them. This, allegedly, is a democracy.
Crazy but true. Had we publicly funded elections, free from bribery...oh well. It's why we currently live in a dictatorship.
I agree. It’s dumb. The money will come. Losing an election to save 92 million dollars is nonsensical.
The candidate who befriends the most billionaires wins the election. Oligarchy lol.
Trump will win in a LANDSLIDE Anyhow....97% of Americans REJECT The Homosexual Agenda....of the Democrats...
that's how bad trump is. A cheap pick could get a win
4 months!?!? They’ve had 4 years to get a new candidate. American school taught me all my life that you don’t procrastinate. Why do these old white guys get that privilege? I’m scorned if I do.
Good point. Plus, there was public evidence of Biden's decline 4 years ago. This was known.
We should stick with Biden.
Everyone calling for Biden to step down is doing the work of the Trump campaign.
You are guaranteeing a Trump win which is the end of America.
Biden seems like the kind of guy to tell you when you should throw in the towel, and the kinda of guy who's too narcissistic to take his own good advice.
Because you're the soyjak worker and they are the chad non-working bourgeois. Know your place, smh my head. (sarcasm in case you didn't get it.)
Oh yes only old white guys procrastinate and get away with it....always the race and gender card with you people...
If they threw Bernie in they would need no MONEY just a debate.
Bernie is too old. I love the guy but it just is what it is.
Bernie won't play ball with the Zionists.
Bernie Sanders is older than Joe Biden
@@C0LD_P1ZZABernie is old but completely lucid, sharp as a tack and arguably the most popular politician among the people. The problem is the establishment hates him because he is popular and represents the will of the people.
@@tofuComputer Without taking into account all the problems with switching candidates that they went over in the video, I think the optics of switching a candidate who by most people is deemed to old, even though that may not be the main reason to get him to step down, to a candidate who is even older is not really a viable choice.
Don't get me wrong, I love Bernie and I wish he would have gotten his chance in 2016 or 2020, but I think even he would say that isn't a viable alternative. He is just too old at this point to be able to get away from the problem that we are dealing with right now.
I say throw Gavin Newsom in there or Dems are toast. Not that he is the most progressive or anything. But as a black person seeing this DEI craze the Republicans have been waffling on about for the past few years, I think the country still has a strong silent majority that is incredibly racist and they need a wonder bread white dude with a nice smile and bland presentation to win them over. Newsom at least has some knowledge on electronic voting (check his book Citizenville) and supports high speed rail and expansion of medical coverage. He is also aggressive against Republicans and shat on Ron deSantis in debate. I say throw him in the ring with Trump and put him on the ticket with Kamala. He's also tall (6'3") and all American elections since the TV was invented have shown that the candidate considered better looking has always won.
Nope. Better looking candidate has not always won. Check it out. Maybe half the time.
All Trump has to do to Beat Newsome-- is to Say..
"We don't want to US to turn into California.."
And It's Over.
"Kamala is the only one with access to that money"
Tell me it's over without telling me it's over. Pick a new, young, dynamic presence. The country will respond to it. It's what this country is DYING For. Don't fall back on whose turn it is. Hubert Humphrey. That's all I have to say.
I think that is a lie to force the public to accept Kamala. Kamala is the current VP, but she isn't part of the new campaign ticket yet. Basically Biden could select anyone as his VP choice and then resign as the candidate. Then the VP candidate might have direct access to the money but not Kamala.
Kudos, Mr dovma, for knowing the name, Hubert Humphrey, a name reference which I expect very few Democrats to recognize! You must be older than 25!
The biggest issue with bypassing Harris is that black voters are the Dem base, and black voters will be fucking pissed if the black VP is passed over for some random white person.
And you know that how? There were Bernie trump voters in 2016. The fuck you know about this absurd country outside of your internet circles?
But SHE'S BLACK!!
Jon Stewart would have my vote.
John Oliver for chief of staff.
Chuckle
He could run in the future. But now? He’s not a stupid man.
I'd be interested in a runoff between Jon and Sam. It'd be an election to actually look forward too.
Ya, mine too, and not because I agree with him on everything or even think he's anything other than a liberal with better rhetoric, but becasue I think he'd actually act and not just sit on his hands and capitulate to the establishment while right wing populism steamrolls him completely.
Biden needs to go, if he stepped back now he could leave with respect and save the country. A stronger person would have absolutely destroyed Trump in that debate, it's that simple.
When Biden stays on the ballot, you'll have a big smile on your face when you *vote for him* . That's why he won't go.
@@QuilishWammy I won't be voting I'm afraid because I'm British, but with Putin so close to us and Trump so close to power, a man who can't accept his own limitations is absolutely terrifying 😱
@@hanselmansell7555 It is terrifying. But, he refuses to accept his limitations because he knows that 'the progressive left' will rush to the ballot box to vote for him. They may cry & complain _for now_ , but they'll *fall in line* when the time comes.
YES!!!! Thank you for your simple, straight forward logic.
@@QuilishWammyIf he stays on the ballot, it means the only party I thought would listen me - won’t. So I’ll stay home and take my chances under King Donald.
Tulsi Gabbard torching Kamala in that one debate is the last thing I remember of Kamala. Really an underwhelming replacement
Idk. I think Kamala would be like DeSantis was to the right. He seemed like he really had a shot on paper, then he opened his mouth. She just has no charisma, and she’s an awful speaker 90% of the time. Biden is a terrible speaker as well but even in this state he has charisma. If they run her I really hope I’m proven wrong.
I think it could work and I don't think it has that much to do with her being a good speaker or charismatic or not. The fact is she solves the most pressing issues: she is lucid and is by all accounts able to handle the work of a president. She is a woman which is a big plus for many liberals and especially this year when abortion is a big issue and she is also a person of color which is also a plus. She also isn't as establishment connected as some previous candidates, looking at you Hillary. I also think most people understand this is such an important election that they are willing to elect someone even if they aren't likable or a bit cringe.
That said there are certainly risks, mainly that some of the qualities that are helpful might work against her on the other side. There could be a reaction to her being the candidate from some republicans that are racist and misogynistic that could lead to higher voter turnout on the republican side.
So who knows... I think we shouldn't discount Kamala because she is "cringe", even if she is she has a big head start as opposed to other possible candidates.
Nobody seems to like her at all…
She was chosen as VP because of her gender and skin color.
She isn't a good orator, and on her own, she isn't good at thinking on her feet. However, she is upright and can speak with volume in her voice and theoretically does not slur her words together. Her best asset is that nobody would have seen this coming and nobody would be ready for it. She is a wild card and doesn't have the negative baggage that many politicians have attached
and let's be completely frank. She won no primaries, she was "appointed" by Biden, not to balance his electoral chances, but for "reasons". The Republicans will jump on this issue like a dog on a bone. Trump will win but this time it won't be by a few thousand votes in 3-4 states.
“There could be worse” is not a great sales pitch.
Definitely not to undecided voters, lol.
I don't think there is an perfect choice here. Unless you want to try again after Trump wins.
Every election in my life, and I'm in my 40s
here is where i disagree with both of them of her being the best choice. "she is a cop." full stop. and don't @ me thinking i am saying i am not voting for them. just saying. she aint my favorite pick.
@@evolutia1 Trump will do away with term limits so if he wins bye bye elections.
Let’s see how the Democrats mess this up. If they pull this off it will be the biggest miracle since the the 1980 Olympic US hockey team.
We’re set on the rigged election claims
It helps that we are running against a Hitler'esque convicted felon and deranged lunatic that wants to end democracy. Just saying, the competition isn't very strong.
@@EchoBravo5150 ah, the classic "you're probably poor" argument. Touché
@@EchoBravo5150 blue counties account for 67% of the country's GDP
@@happyliving1922The line goes up therefore life is good. This is the cliche the "alt right" says about libertarians.
GDP is a nonsensical metric.
If Kamala Harris is your solution….you don’t have a solution
According to polls no
who is going to get all this campaign money - media-channels - like tv - radio - etc. - and who owns them - have elections become a way to redistribute money from voters to advertisers?
Yes
The money goes to a handful of marketing agencies that take anywhere from 20%-30% of the money to place ads and then the publications that publish the ads get the rest. It’s more about the marketing and consultant firms than the publishers.
She would definitely need to tone down the cringe. Right now it’s at 11.
Agreed. Between that and his constant ummm. Ahhhh emmm. This shits unwatchable
Thank you for the Spinal Tap reference!
@@AR-zm8kd... they're talking about Kamala, big dog.
That constant laugh😂
Oh you didn't like her stumbling through saying "I'm out here in these streets" and "they not like us" in a commercial?
I don't like Newsome but he would dogwalk Trump in a debate. He'd humiliate him.
@@AstroBear11He has single handedly Commiefornia what it is today. GOD help us if Newsom ever became the POTUS. Where have you been?
How would Newsom be able to defend his record in CA when there's mass homelessness, lawlessness, income inequality, drug problems, illegal migration, shitty education outcomes, Silicon Valley overlords, etc? I don't think the policies and model of CA is appealing for moderates and independents. Newsom has a bit of charisma though and at least he's sentient
lol
And he looks way better than trump
@@ecobasetech4558if California has gone commie, how does it have the biggest economy in the nation, and 5th in the world,
@@lindsayg4296charisma is a big thing, why do u think the magamorons like rump, ?
“She can articulate issues.”
🤨 Give me one example of Kamala being “articulate”.
@@sherry3547 The passage of time is…
I think Gavin Newsom is a better pick than Kamala.
Got to be Gavin Newsom.
Hmmm, imagine just holding a primary election a year ago...
That would require old people to release their death grip on power, which they always refuse to do. Biden will be another Dianne Feinstein.
Too stubborn, too arrogant and too stupid to do so.
They did hold a primary. No one ran because they would have lost by a massive margin.
@hiphopotamus69 imagine actually holding a primary election a year ago, y'know where candidates run
Newsome could destroy Trump in a debate
I think Gavin Newsom is the most capable of winning.
100%. Especially if the ticket is Newsom/Whitmer
All Trump has to do to Beat Newsome-- is to Say..
"We don't want to US to turn into California.."
And It's Over.
Newsom/Whitmer? The COVID Nazis?
I think not.
Kamala Harris is Not Like Us
Y’all seem pretty out of touch about this. As a Wisconsin voter, I feel like I have a decent grasp on centrist swing voters. Kamala would not win, even over Biden. She amplifies Clinton’s unlikable characteristics. Trump is charismatic and casual, which, unfortunately, matters a lot to voters. Biden struggles to relay a strong message, and Kamala is no different, even if she’s not demented. Misogyny would plague Kamala just as it did Clinton, and her unlikable traits would be amplified with a misogynistic undertone. There is a very obvious reason why no media is floating the idea of replacing Biden with Kamala. This is one of the rare times where the pundits are actually in touch with swing state voters sentiments.
I get Emma’s point about the implication of never running a woman candidate, but is this the time to worry about that? Why are we putting up uniquely unlikable candidates like Kamala and Clinton? It blows my mind. There are plenty of women candidates who aren’t so robotic and establishment.
I used to watch this show a lot, and Emma (and before her, Jamie, plus frequent guest Nomiki) have always seemed to have somewhat naive, somewhat hypocritical blind spots when it comes to anything involving women and what they think people _should_ feel about them. It's very much an "It's HER turn" projection of entitlement that turns people off, dismisses their personal opinions, and doesn't represent reality. It's a proven losing strategy.
@@dillchives Right, maybe misogyny plays some part but Kamala's unlikable personality goes far beyond just her being a woman. Her unlikeability is something akin to DeSantis. No one would be excited to turn out and vote for Kamala. People might come out to vote against Trump, but that is already what we're doing when voting for Biden. We need centrists motivated to actually come out for a candidate they actively want. I could see Whitmer being a good choice to pull in those Midwest swing states.
Kamala is not an "Standard Democrat" she is a "word salad" 😊..........
Cat food
Didn't the Extreme Court just give Biden permission to ignore Campaign Finance Laws?
No. Read the decision. You are misinformed.
If Kamala debates Trump, she should go after him like a prosecutor cross-examining a defendant.
"You think you just fell out of a Coconut Tree?, You Exist in the Context of all of which you live in and what came before you," 🥥🌴
We have that in the UK with keir Starmer, and whilst he's almost bound to be Prime Minister by Friday lunchtime, it didn't work at all when he was against Boris Johnson, who is a very toned down Trump. It just doesn't matter when you're not under oath and can lie and get away with it, and the jury is extremely biased. Johnson collapsed because of his own party, and Truss and Sunak were just atrocious in every single way
That's what's so frustrating. Trump with all of his BS, indictments and horrible personal character should be the EASIEST political opponent to destroy. Kamala, if she's switched on, could do this.
Such a bot-look
@@silentconversationswithima3750 she should go after Trump like she went after those low level drug offenders when she was a prosecutor…black lives matter
My top 3 are Bernie, Bernie and Bernie.
Is your #4 Larry David?
Yup
Someone even older than Biden seems like a good idea to you.
@@synupps877 You can't deny Bernie functions 100 times better than Biden. Heck, Bernie's brain is sharper than a lot of younger reporters. But yes, he is old
💯 and he’s not owned by AIPAC.
Emma is so right about the logic of never running a woman because of misogyny. Obama ran and he won, despite widespread racism. So it's possible. I also feel like leftwing men sometimes use this as an excuse, when it's really just their own misogyny peeking through.
I'd love to see an all female media network someday tackling these subjects.
You want to get around the campaign finance law. Nominate someone else, but have Kamala stay on the ticket. Laws are just more like "guidelines" these days.
Give me Newsom. He knows how to take it to GOP. I want a fighter.
Totally disagree, 3 months is plenty of time. They could easily fund raise 100 million.
She will lose too
If kamala is our best choice, forget it. Classic Hillary trail. We lost.
This recent talk of Kamala utterly confuses me. Everyone has been joking how useless disliked she is on both sides of the aisle, yet you lot in the media, independent and corporate, are talking now as if she is a serious candidate?! You have to be joking. Anyone but Kamala. Newsom, Whitmer, anyone but Kamala.
If it's Kamala, are you saying that you won't vote for her ? 😉
She’s terrible bro, quit with the identity politics
Biden will stay in. He's not stepping aside
@@braddennis5442 You know that saying about feet, a grave, and a banana peel?
He kind of has to now. Pre-primary it could have worked, he might have even been respected for it. The Dem bullpen isn't popular with voters. It's a problem.
@@that_heretic I'm speaking matter-of-factly. Biden is going to stay in the race.
Guys this is so stressful
Stop consuming political media. Their entire purpose is to *rile you up* and *stress you out*, so that they can berate you into voting for the corporate centrists warmongering zionist.
Gavin Newsome is the only other option.
Get in there Bernie Sanders we need you ❤❤❤❤
These clowns never consider what the people want.
Biden should have run in 2016.
Since he won in 2020, he should have declared himself a 1 term Pres in 2021.
Hillary should've won in 08. Obama should've ran later
He's running again in 2024, because he KNOWS that you'll gladly vote for him.
@@QuilishWammyeven if he has dementia.
But didn't he? A lot of people are saying that he did say he would be a one term Pres. Then once he got his feet under the table he changed his mind ?
@@MISSYGful he ran in 2020 to beat trump. He never said he was going to be one term (though he probably thought he was). He's still running in 2024 because of trump
Imagine them switching up for Harris, then Trump would have to debate an actual living person. She needs to told not to meme her way through like the 2020 primary debates. Prosecutor Harris would laminate Trump and it wouldn't be close.
This isn't a courtroom. When trump is trumping, during a debate he kills .
Trump was crush her like a small bug and everybody knows it. The Biden campaign is literally arguing that Biden can't drop out because Kamala would replace him and she's to terrible that they can't let that happen.
seriously. She needs to stop trying to be likable. That "try hard" is so cringe it makes people uncomfortable. She should just be a bulldog prosecutor.
I’d choose Newman over Kamala. My number 1 Choice is Michelle Obama
Does anyone remember notorious Ruth RBG stubbornly would not quit the Supreme court eventually died at the age of 87 giving the court to Republicans. Well Joe is just about to do the same. Congratulations Damm Democrats.
Put kamala in and it's so over
Newsom I think would be a safest win over trump
Can't have him & Kamala on the ticket. There's a rule that you can't have 2 people from the same state together. I don't really understand why it's a thing, but it is. If she's not on the ticket, the campaign loses all the money they've built over the years, when Trump has been building a War Chest for just as long.
@@alexbessolo3328then nominate Kamala Harris for the Supreme Court. You know she'd accept a lifetime appointment.
@@josephmanser7670😂😂😂
You’re losing MI, PA, and WI then. Dems are getting played by the corporate media…they want Biden gone for a reason
@@alexbessolo3328nothing in US constitution prohibits that. Its a misconception
Biden ain’t dropping out. Let’s just face facts.
If he doesnt drop out he's going to either lose or the dems will lose 6-8 sen seats. Book it
Kamala was my 3rd choice in the 2020 primary behind Bernie and Warren, They were the only 2 who I was interested in enough to go see speak when they came by my city. I'd definitely vote for Kamala over Trump 1000 times over.
No-brainer I think a lot of Americans will come to that conclusion
It would be a DREAM if Bernie or Warren would run!
@@tala1246 Bernie is too old.
If Obama and the DNC had wanted either of those we would have had them in 2020. They chose Harris in then knowing she was only polling at 13% and was not popular because they didnt want Bernie or Warren, and sadly since Bernie is older than Biden they would automatically count him out. The expert who called the last 10 elections said its a mistake to replace Biden. The party disunity and all of this fuss is making all of this worse. We are drawing more attention to the 90 minutes that is over and done than the damage control Biden is trying to do.
@@tala1246I would vote for Warren
I dont think campaign contributions would be an issue. This would be covered nonstop and money tends to show up at the top
It's literally been 4 years of millions of dollars going to both Trump & Biden/Harris. To give up that War Chest would put the dems so far behind. Sure, certain candidates can win without it (Bernie, AOC, Newsom, Whitmer, Pritzker) or could mostly self-finance a campaign (Bloomberg or Pritzker, again), but it would involve a herculean effort on all fronts (plus, most of them are not really being considered as candidates by the party, regardless of actual odds of winning). I want money out of politics, but we have to understand how the game is played. To fully replace the whole ticket, the only way to make up the money game would be if every cable news program dropped all pretenses & just turned their shows into actual PBS-style telethons for the dems. Dems are really gambling with the country no matter what they do.
Exactly. Gavin Newsom has my support.
Don’t underestimate how political views have diverged in young generations between the gender groups. It is no longer a trivial choice.
Are they more conservative or liberal?
@edp3202 Males more conservative, females more liberal. It's also an international trend, not just a US trend. I think Finland is a current example.
@@someguy1719 uh oh
The Democratic party need to get going now.
So I ran some estimated numbers
Gen Z voted 70-30 democrat
Trump won voters over 65 each election.
Between new voters becoming age eligible and voters being old and passing away {Covid & Trump voters not living near the best hospitals} accelerated this. I think the Democratic Party gained about a 9 million vote advantage over 2020.
That doesn't mean anything. Dems always get more votes than the GOP.
It's the geographic placement of the votes that matters.
The EC and FPTP systems are Inherently undemocratic and favouring establishment candidates.
Please let it be Jamie Raskin.
Dear god I would be so happy. And I would LOVE to see Raskin obliterate Trump in a debate.
I was thinking the samw thing
Hell yes
Agreed, make it Maryland! Jamie Raskin and Wes Moore!
He's great, but he looks and sounds like a dweeb. Would never make it thru
Harris & Sanders as VP
Hells yeah! Imagine him dismantling sweaty Rubio 🤤
Glad I'm not the only one that sees this ticket as the winner. Bernie Sanders would do a spectacular job of campaigning in the crucial swing states and would make mincemeat out of any VP pick by Donald.
That's a winning ticket. Or even reverse it.
I coulkd live with that !
Love it
You can't rule out misogyny and racism when a large part of Trump's campaign is misogyny and racism. The only difference is that Roe is on the ballet which is the only strength for Kamala compared to 2020. Otherwise Kamala would be a horrible candidate. Maybe she could do okay with a much better debate prep team than what she had in 2020, but she's kind of a deer in headlights.
She's such a shit show at public speaking, it's hard to believe she was a prosecutor. But I'd vote for her over Trump.
How long will the 'progressive left' hide behind the racism & sexism card ? Kamala is an awful candidate. Deal with it. Stop making silly excuses 😉
She checks all of the identity boxes. The press, of course, loves her. She's an entitled opportunist like Hillary. Desperate to make the case for her, CNN showed polls where she led all other potential replacements. What they didn't show you were her Hillary like negative rating
The misogyny and racism is already built into the calculus though. Those that are going to vote along those lines are already firmly in support of trump and weren’t going to vote for Biden either.
She’d be better than Biden, and that’s all that matters
That's all they need is 3 months. We've already heard plenty from Gavin newsom.
Please. The only replacement candidate is BERNIE. Every other option would be a mistake.
Hakeem Jeffries! I would prefer Pete Buttigieg but, unfortunately, this country isn't ready for a gay president. He would lose to Trump.
By all means dumb ass Dems show pictures of him kissing his husband.
That's helpful.
Sam naming every single Hilary conspiracy out loud is classic.
Libya happened son.
@@geekylove3603elaborate?
How you forgotten how Tulsi embarrassed Kamala with bringing up Kamala's bad past?
Kamala's evil past will be brought up everytime.
Biden said he would never sign Medicare for all. Kamala was for it before she was against it. Imagine if she was the new nominee and came out strong for Medicare for all. That is one of the reasons we love Bernie.

Pritzker, Beshear, Whitmer, Shapiro. Put their names in a hat and pick one.

@@irishva2314 Katie and the White House Board
Team Pritzker with Beshear. That's a sure thing. 🤷♂️
Considering misogyny, Tulsi would be Trumps worst Vp Choice
Shhhh, don't tell him. There's still a chance he might. 😉
@Selling-McCarthyism not sure what you're getting at here
@@user-kt8dy7pc8n Trumps base includes misogyny and racism. Tulsi is a Pacific Islander woman. If Trump chooses her, that would turn off parts of his base from voting.
@@user-kt8dy7pc8n I’m saying the choice would turn off Trump’s base
Trump voters are voting for Trump no matter who the VP is. The swing vote is where the juice is. Tulsi could probably be a VP choice that actually could move swing voters either way.
They're not replacing him.
It's too popular. They literally view popular opinion as like....cooties.
The only amusement that I've gotten of late is that my Dad and his saltiness about Hillary's loss in 2016 has resurfaced. "We wouldn't have this mess if she had won!" (Dad, a former R, is a much older man who has always thought very highly of HC)
I’m just thinking about the scenario that they’re painting and I’m starting to feel a little edgy. So basically you would have Trump up against a woman of color. I can’t imagine how divisive that is going to play between his base and the Dems…..It’s going to incite a lot of Misogyny and racism. I mean the real kind, not the imagined Hillary Clinton kind
Whitmer would be trumps worst nightmare
HAS to be a white man. The margins are too close to risk anyone else.
Yep. Not living in the US myself, but I would LOVE to see her taking Biden's place. She's the right one I think.
I'd wager that you don't even know a single thing Whitmer stands for other than [generic Democrat position].
Harris is more progressive than she is. I won't throw my support to a dirty centrist unless it's my last choice before Trump.
Not after they runs ads highlighting her Nazi-like behavior during COVID
Here's a very difficult truth. Hillary lost PA, MI, and WI because black men did not vote in the numbers needed (stayed home). And black men, of which I am one, are not inclined to vote for a black woman, especially not one with an interracial husband. I would/will vote for Kamala, Joe, or whomever else. But, the question is "Do you want to win or not?". Don't blame the messenger. I already know it's wrong. Put Kamala on the supreme Court, and run Gavin Newsom with Gov Moreland from MD as VP. Guaranteed win!!!
Interesting ~
"7 or 8% had no opinion on Biden or Trump"
HOW
Because they have stopped watching the media. The public's perception of the media is lower than Congress, which is lower than snake sh*t.
If asked, I will do it.
Black..... woman........ Id vote for Kamala or anyone over trump , but ......................... Umnmmmn America 🤷🏽♂️
Does that mean you don't think it should be Kamala because she couldn't overcome the racism?
Exactly. We are in 1950’s America. White, male and rich. I’ll love to see a black woman president, but this is a clown country.
She is not black, she is indian
Black woman with immunity.
@@vladseva2327 She's both, half-and-half.
I can not believe this is happening.
Bra this is so annoying, they literally wait last second like no one seen this coming, is wild
Harris is a great choice if you want to lose to Trump. There won't be much time to campaign, so you need someone that is capable of campaigning well. Kamala missed that bus.
@@paulpeterson4216 why do you think she would lose?
@@vladseva2327 She managed to be below 5% in her home state in the primary. She is possibly the worst campaigner in the Democratic Party. People have already formed their opinions of her, and they are not good. Rightly or wrongly, she is seen as weak, incompetent, unprincipled and disrespected by her peers. She may, indeed probably will, do worse than Biden would.
At least she'd stand a better chance of winning than Biden.
nope. Her numbers are good against Trump. She cancels him out.
She can steal the election like Biden did in 2020. No worries man. Whichever democrat wins in November they'll continue giving money to the Ukraine and Israel while ignoring our growing homeless problem in the US.
Hunter?
@@Iamrightyouarewrong Absurd.
Yes. I am writing him in no matter who replaces Joe.
@@synupps877 why.
@@Iamrightyouarewrong Hunter recently became a felon, and he's not a politician. There is no reason to vote for him and plenty of reasons not to vote for him. It's absurd to even suggest it.
I don't care how little time there is and how much money will be needed to run for the candidates, the best option is still to let it play out. In other words, let whatever candidates there are to go to town and see what happens. I just think if you lock yourself down on Harris right away, you will be forcing yourself into a corner when many already think she is far from being the best candidate and that is me being kind. Don't do it.
Kamala or Trump the hilarity will continue. US politics is a circus
Kamala Harris?
Good luck with that
Kamala is black when it’s convenient, Asian when it’s convenient, Indian when it’s convenient, Caribbean when it’s convenient, and Jamaican when it’s convenient.
Okay good?
@@Blakbox92 Calling her a “black woman” is annoying. She’s whatever the audience is or the Democrats need her to be. Since she can’t be white or a man, that’s her husband’s role.
This conversation about the money should prove to anyone still asleep that this isn't a democracy.
Amazing the power of the media. Nobody was discussing getting rid of Biden, no matter how bad he looked or sounded. Only FOX viewers seemed to even be aware of it. Now, the other networks are saying it, so, lo and behold, EVERYBODY is talking about Biden dropping out.
I want to discuss why a convictive felon should be told over and over that he should drop out.
One of Hillary's biggest issues was the sense of entitlement she gave off. Without saying a word, everything she did screamed "it's my turn"... it was a huge turn-off.
And how does that help right now?
No democrats have contested Biden 😮 in the Primary. why is that ?
RFK tried
Because party establishment and leadership made clear that he is not to be opposed.
None of them would have won, that's why- and that'd also the reason why Biden dropping out with 4 MONTHS LEFT is absolutely absurd and just ASKING for an even more weak candidate not lose down the ballot. Its the stupidest thing. When you have Emma agreeing with Ana from TYT, it's obviously a terrible idea.
There is NO ONE capable of winning swing states the way that Biden had proven he can. Everyone is in a huge panic about a terrible debate, but according to the guy who has predicted the last 9/10 elections (2000 aside) debates have almost no impact on election night.
The incumbent usually is not primaried if they can run again in a presidential race.
Because the party dissuaded them
Bernie? Sorry they already screwed him out of the nomination once
Vote Marianne Williamson... 🗳💚🌱
her take on gaza could be better
Down with palestine palestine isnt an ally
Left ain’t down with occupying forces going against international laws.
Thats the entire Democratic establishment in a nutshell
The Dems should pick Gavin Newsom because he’s literally looks like a president and Donald Trump likes him and he said himself it’s hard for him to criticize him because he likes him so much.
I don't want anyone trump likes
@@jessicabosco3009 I don’t want capitalism but hey
I agree and the best "mainstream" criticism of Newsom is "California!"
But all of the Dem candidates are gonna get some variation of the "blue state" attacks and Newsom is *by far* the best at countering them.
@@jessicabosco3009 Even if policy wise, he is probably THE second or third most progressive democrat. Trump also liked Sanders, but that doesn't stop you from liking him?
i would vote for Newsome
Emma halfheartedly making the case for Kamala, lol we're done here
Why we wasting time with this discussion the Crypt Keeper isn't leaving doing all this stuff is NOT gonna help as sad as it is.
Bernie Sanders
He's even older than Biden
Harris Sanders 24. Imagine him dismantling sweaty Rubio
I don't buy the idea that it has to be Harris because of the money. Worst case scenario they just transfer the money to Super Pacs/ the DNC. Sure it will be less efficient, but a new candidate can make up for it because they can potentially be much more popular than Harris and can generate more enthusiasm which will lead to more money. Also just picking Harris and not making her fight for it at the convention would be a bad look for the Democrats. That combined with Harris' unpopularity makes the money advantage not worth it for me.
Harris is polling better than they are. Besides, she has the biggest name ID. Do you think Black voters will be kind to the idea that the Black woman VP was tossed for another white man?
Bernie is the man!!
Trump’s first choice is Joe second is Kamala. Go with her he wins
He wins either way.
Truthfully, there really isn't much that can be done to salvage the dems chances at winning. Biden loses, Kamala loses. One of them has to remain on the ticket in order for the campaign to keep the funding they've already built. From what I've seen from polling/survey companies, the dems prefer Mayor Pete & then Amy Klobuchar over Kamala. I don't see either beating Trump; Klobuchar would probably do better considering how much of a powerhouse she is electorally in Minnesota, but the biggest reason Biden is behind in Minnesota & Michigan isn't his age, but his pro-Israel stance. She isn't any different. The possible candidates who truly can win against Trump (ie Bernie, AOC, JD Pritzker) are not in consideration and realistically won't be picked at the convention under any circumstance. After that, Newsom & Whitmer could win, but they are clearly lower in consideration. Quite frankly, the democrats need to be saved from themselves. There is no scenario where they can have their cake & eat it too; the party is trying to find a ticket that can 1. Compete with Trump's War Chest 2. Serve the ideological agenda of the mainstream status-quo 3. Win the presidency. No option available can do all 3. Quite literally, to avoid a 2nd Trump term, somethings got to give.
Thank Sam, Emma and Team. I really appreciate your thoughtful analysis of this situation. You gave me a lot to think about. The BEST,
There could be worse people? The USA has truly become a very sad country!
But if Harris stayed on in the VP spot, and the top spot was Newsom or whoever, wouldn’t the money be available to their campaign?
So then she stays in the VP spot because she’s what female or a woman of color? This is going to enrage many. Not me but others. Can you gonna put a white man before her, No bad optics there
Both are from California, so they can't be together. IDK why that's a rule, but it is. There's also the issue of Trump going, "it should've been Kamala vs. me, but she's so bad they had to find someone else. Do you really want someone that weak near the White House?" It's not a good argument, but it would be enough to sway some voters, which the dems can't afford. If Biden steps down, the party will have to thread the needle & 1 mistake can cost them the whole election. Right now, every scenario that is actually being considered has far more downsides than upsides.
Electoral College members can't cast both their Presidential and Vice Presidential votes for people from their home state. So we be guaranteed to elect Trump's VP candidate even if Dems win, because kamala and Newsom are both from CA.
