What exactly is the democratic party going to stand for in 2026 and 2028?

[Anonymous]

Being tone deaf, they will continue to support the things that will doom their candidates. And as such, the next POTUS will be Pam Bondi or Stephen Miller.

Sure. But people don't want stasis either. And that's all that Democrats are offering. Schumer and Jeffries - the leaders of the Democratic Party - aren't exactly change agents. It's more like the corruption goes in slightly different directions with the current crop of Democratic leaders.

Take a look at Pelosi"s wealth. She's never earned more than $180,000 in her life. She's presently worth $115 million because of her insider trading. Don't think for a moment that Democrats are less corrupt than this generation of Republicans. And the Biden corruption - while not on Trump levels, was profound too. Hunter Biden made nearly $2 million from his "paintings," which doesn't compare to what Donald jr and Eric Trump are making from their crypto scams. But still.

Republicans suck. But so too Democrats.

No idea if what any of you said is true. But who do you want in charge if some widespread disease broke out? If something happened to our water supply? Power grid? Do you have confidence in the FAA? Trump is not only a person you can’t take seriously, he is dangerous. Just take a look at his cabinet. Would you rather have those folks running the show or the people from Biden‘s cabinet?

DP. With all due respect, it literally does not matter at all what you or I want. Your wishes are entirely irrelevant to winning the presidency in 2028. DCUM blue bubble voters are as relevant to winning the presidency as a garden slug is.

You need to convince swing state voters to agree with you if you want Democrats to win in 2028. And in particular you need to convince the voters that completely distrust the Democrats to vote for a Democratic candidate and not stay home or vote Republican.

That’s a tall order right now. The Democrats aren’t trusted on being honest about their leadership, education and school closures, trans, the COVID vaccine, border/immigration issues, money to Ukraine, or Gaza. That’s a lot of broken trust to make up.

By the way, none of this group trusts the Republicans (and it will be worse if their healthcare is gutted and the random kidnappings continue), but they distrust the Democrats more. I don’t think you understand just how tarnished the Democratic brand is outside of the DCUM blue bubble.

Exactly. The swing voters will vote for change again in 2028. Yawn. We've seen this before. Unfit elderly people aren't popular presidents in swing voter world. Go figure.

I don’t think they will vote for the Democrats at this point, though. Barring a generational talent, Vance will be our next president. There is too much lost trust.

I’m the PP who has correctly predicted every election since 2008, including Trump 2016.

And truth be told, it’s too early to predict outcome now. But I’m pessimistic for the Democrats today. It’s not that I think Vance is a very good politician. It’s that the Democrats are just so, so bad now. Bad enough that I don’t think they’ll get the normal lift of an unpopular president.

Mandami is lifting my spirits a bit, at least.

I’d rather have a president that got a vaccine available in record time, and stands up against bureaucracy.

Biden let school stay closed for far too long, even admitting they should be open but allowed unions to bulldoze him. Millions of illegal immigrants flooded over the border, which is now closed under Trump. Record inflation under Biden which is now getting in check.

Billions in taxpayer dollars being kept for the U.S. taxpayer, not NGOs feeding corruption nor the most wealthy universities in the world that seemingly hate the average American.

I’m pleased as punch, thankyouverymuch.

All true and I seem to remember a bunch of teachers publicly stating all over social media that they didn't want to go back to the classroom. They were content to teach from home forever.

And then there's Randi Weingarten..... but that for another day.

Trump was the one to shut it all down. Most schools were open when Biden was in office. Amazing how bad the memory is for some people. Perhaps you should start taking fish oil.

I think we all remember this pretty well and most of all we remember the absolutely impeccable timing of this mysterious virus that jumped from wild bats.

The guilty ones SHALL be held accountable.

They need to stand for bringing back those illegal immigrants from Sudan.

Apart from universal health care, green infrastructure, and maybe UBI, these are objectively terrible policies.

It's going to be a "safe" white man. He'll be centrist but Republicans will call him a crazy liberal communist.

No chance Vance takes it, he has the charisma of a wet rag and won't know what to do without Trump telling him.

The question is what policies the party is going to stand for - not who is likely to be the candidate.

Why is mandami lifting your spirits?

Because it shows the Democrats have a pulse and can find a populist candidate. I thought the party was entirely dead for 2028, but Mamdani’s win is giving me some hope.

I don’t know if Mamdani will win overall. I don’t pay enough attention to local races to understand the dynamics, so I don’t want to predict that one. But the emergence of a charismatic populist is a breath of fresh air.
