I love Ossoff and have been supporting him financially. If he runs, he should make big promises and swing for the fences. Support universal healthcare, for one. Really focus on housing affordability (in a much more massive way than Kamala did). Deal with the huge wealth imbalance. |
Agreed. I’m pp and just looked at his IG — horrible. He’s way younger than Warren and she’s managing two accounts and is showing up more on Threads, which is about to overtake X wrt users. He needs to be campaigning now if he wants a shot, daily sm face time, but maybe he doesn’t. |
Stop fighting and doing a 180 on everything Trump does and proposes. Not everything he does is negative, policywise. But your instinct is to fight on every hill, all the time and frankly, you democrats don't have the manpower. Forget a 2028 candidate and work on a coherent PLATFORM that is acceptable to the majority. Then sell the platform/policies and a candidate will shake out. Make sure you consider the second and third order effects of those policies. I'm your adversary, and you can't even see that the DNC has moved away from a broad common sense agenda. Stop and think. |
This. nobody will win by just complaining abut Trump. An appealing platform is required, not just "I'm not him". |
You have not a clue what you are talking about. Legitimate two-term presidents stand on their own two feet and present their own platforms to the American people. Do you think the parties invented platforms and then Obama, Clinton, and Reagan were shaken out to fit the mold of some platform created by the idiots working for the RNC or DNC? hahahahhaha.... wrong! Good presidents are elite in just about every way and don't need your help, my help or anyone else's help communicating a message and platform to the American people. Using your logic, we will continue to have presidents as awful as Trump and Biden. Crawl back under your rock. |
Um, minus immigration, every Dem policy is supported by a majority of Americans. If you’re racist, sexist, miserable, love bread and circuses — that’s not a Dem problem, that’s a you problem. |
Dems have had a quality of candidate problem since Obama left office. The candidate comes before policies, platforms, and messaging to the American people. The GOP has obviously had a candidate problem too in recent years. This is how we wind up electing our worst two presidents in our history in consecutive elections. We need better people seeking to become our leaders. Simple as that. |
yes! |
WTF ? |
His stance on Israel is pretty reasonable in my opinion. It’s basically Israel has the right to defend itself and has a right to exist, but the actions taken on Gaza were extreme. That’s fair, to me. He isn’t some crazy extremist about it. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/02/15/us/politics/jon-ossoff-georgia-jewish-democrats.html |
Shapiro is the smarter bet. If Whitmer doesn't want the VP spot, Ossoff is a strong contender for it. |
If the only paths the Democrats have to move forward are (1) corruption (the Clinton model), (2) the pearl clutching and “when they go low, we go high”, turn the other cheek idiocy (embodied by morons like Gillibrand going after idiots like Franken), and (3) fighting like hell, I’ll take whatever is behind Door #3 … |
The only reason he won his Senate seat is because Warnock was on the ballot at the same time, bringing out black voters. |
You fruitcakes elected Trump, Biden, and then Trump again in the most recent three elections and you want to bring Clinton into the conversation about examples of who voters shouldn't move forward with? Astounding ignorance. |
Speaking as a Jew, I'd prefer if a Jew didn't make a serious run for president. It will not be good for us. |
