      Dems are cooked. Nobody is buying the old guard bullshit anymore. Embrace populism or go the way of the Whigs

        Maybe, probably. They are going to gamble that they can stay the same because people are/will be so mad about… well everything.

        They can prop up a white male moderate with an ounce of charisma, someone that is around 45. People will be refreshed that this candidate speaks in complete sentences and the capacity for empathy – like a real person.

        That’s what they want, business as usual sold as a revolutionary idea. Will people buy it? Who knows… groups of people are pretty dumb.

          They will 100% try to do this, but they’ll end up losing and then blame the voters they’re maligning. Mamdani is a case-in-point difference between status quo candidate turnouts and progressive candidate turnout. The 7% delta over Cuomo is the 7% they’ll lose if they try it again.
