US Politics Thread

Well, you never know. In 76 Carter came out of relative obscurity to win the nomination. So maybe there’s someone else waiting in the wings. I don’t think Sanders can win but he has an awful lot of support among younger people I think and US demographics would point to a big increase in 18-21 year old voters by 24 — if they vote.

But the Dems have had their last 'Carter' in Obama, who came out of the relative blue, using Progressive rhetoric to get the attention of the people, revealed his true nature as a president and the Dems have, subsequently, pulled up any pathway for that to happen again.

We know this as we continue to see who they support in primaries against Progressives starting to make waves.

It's like watching someone self harm and bleed out through spite!

It's simply jaw dropping to watch!
 
I agree i think she would be a bad choice. The Dems have a problem in that theyre pretty uninspiring. klobuchar or buttigeg are probably the best of a poor bunch but ones a woman and ones gay and to be honest i still dont think the US is open minded enough to vote for either.

maybe it is time for sanders but how old is he now?

The Dem problem has always been of what to vote against and not what to vote for. They need a villian in the GOP to separate themselves as policies are only different by degrees, which is why they're centre left against centre right.

Trouble is, they'd happily pitch a politician with more right wing tendencies against anyone more left of the Dem position blurring the lines between them and the GOP, even more! It's crazy!

Sanders broke a lot of trust in Progressive politics by, essentially, abandoning his drive against these policies today. He knew that the outcome of Democratic policy would look like this through his campaign!

I don't know if there's space for Sanders but, ironically, it could look like 'the lesser of two evils' between him and a Dem suit(again irony with him fitted in that suit now).

Turner says she might run for Pres in 2024, but she's already been crushed by the machine as she tried to assimilate into the party by being 'nicer' in her last primary.

I think think whoever fights for the working civilian cause(health care, wages, safety) has a shot, cos things are getting worse, not better.
 
Trump election campaign manager speaking today.

He's been ordered to attend. However, he's also the election manager of Liz Cheney's challenger so he may use it to constantly attack her rather than answer questions.
 
I believe there looking at using his taped and closed deposition which is likely to be even better as it’s in the can now.
Oops.

Also there's a "major" supreme court decision expected shortly. I'm not saying Rowe v Wade but I'm sure a political judgement like that would push the committee down the news agenda.
