As a vanity, this qualifies as my political prediction for the 2028 presidential race.
Rohit Khanna, aka Ro Khanna is the Dem rep for their 17th district.
I was listening to Fox News on Sirius this AM and heard him interviewed. Not sure who from what network did the interview, but I think it was Fox.
Point is, he came across as rational, moderate, sincere, well-spoken, intelligent, personable, and willing to criticize the existing Democrat party, end-to-end. (Dare I say clean and articulate?) He is of Indian descent. He could give Vivek Ramaswamy a good fight for who is the smoothest, the most glib. He was like an NPR radio host without the insufferable smugness.
He focused on creating a positive message that appeals to all Americans, as opposed to identity politics.
*IF* you didn't know who he was, listening to him you could have thought he was a 1980s Reagan republican.
I recall watching Obama speak speak at the Dem convention in Boston, 2004 and telling my wife - "he will be the next winning Democrat candidate."
Well, I am posting my prediction here -- Ro Khanna will be the next winning Dem presidential candidate.
Roadkill kahna? Seriously? SMDH!
My husband won’t even watch the show when the Jessica person is in the Lib chair.
Exactly.
The Democrats want an uber-left radical that utterly hates Conservatives and wants to jail anyone who says a peep against the ruling party.
Great, another leftist.
So is this the beginning backstory to who becomes Khan Noonien Singh? Amazing how old science fiction later becomes fact. You gotta love those old Star Trek episodes.
Heh. Nice reference. 😉
Absolutely.
But he is ELECTABLE, and path back to power. That’s all they want.
If he looked like Newsome he’d win 340 electoral votes.
Oh we wouldn’t like him, but he’d be the smooth, calming, protecting image that too many women and independents want.
Personally, I’m voting Vance and [fill in blank] in 28.
SCOTUS has yet to [narrowly] rule on that, eh?
4 years of Trump success might make too many voters soft again.
As you stated, hope is not a battle plan.
No question. But ...
His electability scares me.
After Trump/Musk/Vance get done will Illegal Immigration, Election Reform, and DOGEing the Federal government, the Dems will have such a minority status that they won’t be able to wi a majority in either rhe House or Senate, much less the Presidency for a minimum of 30 years.
Also, too bad the rest of the Demoncrat party leadership is too extreme, stupid, and Marxist to falsely moderate their policies positions like this liar.
“He focused on creating a positive message that appeals to all Americans, as opposed to identity politics.”
HAHAHA. In other words. He is a smooth tongued charlatan liar just like Obama.
SAME QUESTION HERE:
WERE BOTH HIS PARENTS AMERICAN CITIZENS WHEN HE WAS BORN HERE?
IMO-—NO MORE “CLOSE COUNTS”.
Roger that! One of the Trump kids in ‘36? After JD’s 8 years ? 😊👍
Yup. No free thinkers allowed.
Sure. Byron Donalds and Barron Trump <— future ticket, with Barron as successor to Byron.
Not sure I trust Ivanka, fully. Don Jr if he proves to be electable.
The grand daughter Kai in the mix would be special.
Right now, Mr. Khanna is just a member of Congress...
I do not see a Congressman becoming the Democratic nominee in 2028...
Mr. Khanna should run for a statewide job in CA if he is ever interested in running for President...Remember, Obama ran for President while being a member of US Senate...
Sick of dot indians and pakis.
