““When they go low, we go high!” has proved ineffective.”

Just when did they ever try that. All they know is going lower...lower...lower

With Trump’s latest victory, it’s time for Democrats to throw out the playbook of the past decade. “When they go low, we go high!” has proved ineffective. Democrats need a big man to stand at the base of the hoop and stuff the dog that keeps dunking on them. They need Gavin Newsom.


1) They need another white guy. will that sell to their base?

2) they go high. More racism, more perversion, more climate, more social justice, etc.

California cannot exist without the current Federal subsidies of all sorts. When the Trump Administration turns off the federal spigots, Newsom will dry up like a ten year old raisin.

Unless something really awful happens, JD Vance is that candidate in 2028. I’d like to see him shave and drop about 50 pounds, but he is very, very good in debate, interviews, extemporaneous speech etc. A candidate cannot learn that. Either he has it or he doesn’t. From Martha Raditz to Joe Rogan, JD has shown his natural abilities. And, as a conservative Catholic, he is unlikely to soil the bed in the next 4 years.

We are blessed to have incredibly stupid enemies.

Hopefully they can stay stupid for decades to come.

Old media trying to control the narrative again. They will never stop till they have control. Coupled with old media gaslighting is a cadre of young, currently very out of touch(with the reality of consequences of poor life decisions) leftists. They gaslighted us regarding Bidens mental condition. Now they’re gonna start lying about Newsom.
Newsom is going to try and ride the wave. His past management failures indicate a very dismal future.

Vance has the ability to win and serve two terms as President.

The kooky Democrats have opened up a wide path for him.

Nope. And they cannot nominate another white guy either. My betting is Maryland governor Wes Moore is the 2028 nominee. He is totally obama2.0 with military cred.

I read the article. Wow! I wish I could live in my own special reality. The reason I didn’t want a Democrat in power at any level is they adjust society to reflect the reality they see rather than the reality the rest of us live in.

I think the Democrats may reconsider the whole Identity Politics thing, there’s going to be a lot of infighting about that for the next few years.

Well, he does have great hair.

DeSantis wiped the floor with Newscum in a debate on FOX.

Plus, the State of California is stigmatized in the rest of the country.

Besides being a stupidly thought-out article, it’s one thing to have a personality, it’s another thing to have substance, Newsom has none.

They have no one who can appeal to the majority. They tricked the Country with Obozo. Been there done that. It is a one time play.

The demorats only play is a universally loved celebrity candidate with believable credentials. Not Taylor Swift type celebrity (”my favorite color is aqua”) or a Britney Griner type (”screw Amerika”). I mean a genuine old school celebrity. Caroline Kennedy?

This is some of the stupidest analysis I have read this cycle.

They left one thing out. Trump is intelligent. Newsome is not. I’m not convinced that he is a whole lot smarter than Harris.

Does anyone remember when we had actually intelligent Democrats, like Daniel moynihan?

The party elders may want to go that way, but their eneMedia mouthpieces, who exist due to DIE, they will continue to screech the “our turn” and “they’re out to get us” chants to keep the aggrieved-class in line.

Word salad, story telling hands, inappropriate cackling, obfuscating answers to questions is NOT natural, or likable in any area of public life. She had NO policy and her political experiences were failures. Sorry.
If there wasn’t a Trump, she would garner almost no votes.
The Dems were complete idiots to think that identity politics, and Anti-Trumpism was the ticket to win.
Freegards.
