    Why oh why would anyone want Harris, much less as the top choice for the president. The one who literally said she didn’t know what she’d change if she was elected.

      It’s like when you live next to a McDonald’s and your first thought for dinner is McDonald’s. Everyone knows it’s a bad option but it’s also the most obvious choice.

    Polls don’t mean shit three years out. That said, this is still pathetic. Harris should be nowhere on that list, and AOC should be at the top. The rest I can kind of see making sense on this poll and with those numbers, being pretty much the only other nationally recognizable Dem names for most people.

    While Trump didn’t get his Red Wave mandate in 2024 like he claims, there is no reason Harris should’ve taken such a beating. That election was a fucking layup, and Harris bricked it. I swear, nobody has ever given Trump more free press than the Harris campaign. The guy had been out of office for four fucking years, and she just could not stop talking about him as if he were the incumbent. She made every mistake and bad decision humanly possible, that it’s hard to believe she didn’t vote for Trump herself.

    If Harris ends up being the nominee in 2028, we might as well just burn this whole motherfucker down.

    I look forward to the bold leadership of Josh Shapiro, who famously said “In some dark corners, [Luigi Mangione] is being hailed as a hero. Hear me on this, he is no hero … The real hero in this story is the person who called 9-1-1 at McDonald’s this morning.”

      Cortez is a woman. That means she can’t win in America.

      We keep trying. We keep failing.

      Hard truth about this shitty society. Find another option if you want to win.

    Aawwww! That’s so nice of you to think that you’ll be able to vote for them in 2028!

    Get rid of the Hitler apprentice you put in the white house now, or voting in 2028 will be nothing but wishful thinking.

    There is not a single motherfucker on that list I would vote for

    Shit, I’m not even sure if I could make myself vote against anyone with any of those. There’s bullshit every single one of them has said or done that I’m just not okay with, so the only reason I’d cast my vote their way is the shitty two party system we’re stuck with.

    Most capable, intelligent, even-mannered, and truly best option? Buttigieg.

    But he’s gay and women and gay people can’t be president in this shithole society.

    I like AOC’s energy and commitment, but she’s a woman and she’s very outspoken, which means she cannot win in the United States.
