Ranking the 2028 Democrat Contenders

Democrats are still licking their wounds from then-Vice President Kamala Harris's defeat last November -- and grappling with the implications of President Trump's second term. For the moment, they are essentially a leaderless party. But that will change in due course. The 2028 presidential field looks wide open from this distance.

I'm not ready to engage in a discussion about Dem candidates. It's much too early. And right now I'd be surprised if there is even a legitimate election in 2028.

Not a bad list. However all of them have some serious flaws.

Fuck off, you imbecile

With this eclectic group of contenders, I'm really liking the Democrats chances at making a comeback in 2028.

Why? States, and Congress run elections not the Federal Government.

How do you not understand how your system works? I see this time and again here, people just not understanding how your country operates.

Then go on WoahIsMe BS post. Its hilarious.

I am surprised Shapiro is so low. Means the Democrats are going to be running on hot air.

They've already chosen Newsom. Democrats don't leave anything up to chance.

Stopped reading when I saw AOC as #2 and Harris as #3.

Sit this one out, MAGAdiots. You support and defend a demented, rapist felon.

Don't kid yourselves, the Democrat candidate has already been selected for you. All that remains is to spin up the vote fraud machine. COVID made vote fraud easy in 2020. Republicans got smart closed some fraud loopholes and Democrats couldn't cheat so easy in 2024. The Democrats will change tactics and we'll see new forms of fraud in 2028. Republicans need to be vigilant.

I think AOC is more interested in Pelosi's old job as Speaker and bumping AIPAC Shakur's butt out.

Why? Surely you voted for Harris and would do so again.

You're the only brain-dead dumbfuck that would vote for a fraud and a pedophile THREE TIMES.

But it's just as likely that primary voters(Progressives) want a more fiery and progressive standard-bearer.

And if they do that, they will lose. They still haven't learned.
