I mean, what else can we do?
Let’s get AOC to run. She’ll be old enough next time 'round.
It’s clear the “catering to moderates” strategy has been a catastrophic failure. I say we change gears and actually put up a candidate that isn’t going to try and “play both sides.”
AOC hasn’t been afraid to criticize her party’s decisions, I think she could take the platform Bernie Sanders took and actually make some progress.
Problem is, the DNC would actually need to fucking cooperate instead of falling into their same old tried and failed ways, unlike they did with Bernie both times he ran. I don’t see that happening, and as always, third parties aren’t really an option.
I’m not in the US, so I won’t be voting for any presidential candidates, but I’ve been impressed with AOC whenever I’ve seen her in interviews.
You’re right about the infighting thing though, and it seems to be endemic to left leaning parties everywhere, whereas the right usually seem to be a much more cohesive team.
Not a lot to argue about when the goal is to make as much money as possible by any means necessary
Happens in Canada too, only we actually have multiple parties. but the left sides tend to split the vote more whereas the right manages to have less splintering and usually will back one of the major conservative parties. It sucks honestly but I’m okay with it because at least I don’t feel my vote is wasted when I vote for an alternative.
Convince Keanu Reeves to run for the next election. Seriously, he is the one.
He seems like a person that would go to great lengths to avoid politics, but he can’t be any worse than any of the existing options.
Isn’t there something about the president having to be American born too? Keanu was born in Lebanon and is Canadian. I think he probably has dual citizenship with the states but it sounds complicated…
Also holy smokes he is 60???
Worked for reagan, Trump, zelensky. Every politician an actor. Fuck it at this point
We’ll have to get Trudeau to step down first.
For real though, what does the rescue float in the meme represent irl?
Cuz I sure as fuck won’t be praying, but I’m not really seeing any options other than watching in horror as our country burns down around us.
We can’t even point to the electoral college fucking us over this time - an actual majority of voters decided they want to experience 1930s Germany live and in color.
We’re not going to fix a political system when the majority of actual voters are evil to the core.
