[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our party is out of touch with the voters.  Reading this thread with the various possible candidates mentioned…it’s clear we’re screwed.  Pritzker?  Buttigieg?  AOC?  Beshear?  I mean….screwed.  The Obama divorce is going to be the final straw that utterly takes the wind out of our sails.  The next party to take the White House from Republicans will have a different name.  [/quote]

Do you seriously think they are getting divorced?! And why would that even matter anyway.[/quote]

They aren't and it wouldn't. This is some MAGA garbage trying to take the attention off of Trump's unpopularity once again making it very easy for the Dems to be successful in 2026 and 2028. History repeating itself.[/quote]

Trump and the GOP are much more popular than the Democrats are.[/quote]

Lol... it's 2025. Dems were more popular than that GOP in 2021 and the GOP was more popular than Dems for a brief period during Trump's 1st term. Unpopular, unfit elderly sitting presidents serve up electoral losses for their party. This is an absolute proven fact that we have just seen play out on more than one occasion during the past 8 years. Pay attention people!![/quote]

The degree of the difference in approval ratings matter. The Democrats unfavorability ratings are at an all time high and their approval ratings not only much lower than Trump’s but also lower than the GOP’s (see Quinnipiac, WSJ, NBC - all show same thing). That’s flashing red alarm bells for the party. [/quote]

Good thing for the Dems it's 2025 and Trump is actively tanking the GOP just like he did during his 1st term. Numbers don't lie and history repeats itself; especially in politics.[/quote]

This kind of complacency is what gets Democrats to settle on weak candidates like Biden and Harris. It's just Trump. He's unpopular. He's dragging Republicans down. A win in '28 is guaranteed regardless of who Democrats choose. That seems to be the assumption that Democrats are settling into.

I am not so confident. Democrats have done nothing to address the deeply unpopular issues that have made it very difficult for them to win nationally. And If Republicans choose Marco Rubio as their nominee in '28, Democrats are going to have a very time defeating him with their roster of mediocre has-beens. It seems like everyone is banking that they'll be running against JD Vance. But I don't think that's happening. I think it will be Rubio. And Whitmer and Butiggieg and Newsome are not defeating Marco Rubio.  [/quote]
