Excellent news from Pollster Nate Silver. It'll probably be AOC on the Dem ticket in 2028.

[impulse]

Pollster Nate Silver has named Democratic New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez as the early front-runner for the 2028 Democratic presidential nomination, a prediction that critics say highlights a leftward shift of the Democratic Party.

 

Silver, perhaps best known for founding statistical analysis site FiveThirtyEight, shared this bold claim in a “Silver Bulletin” Substack video, joined by Galen Druke, who also picked Ocasio-Cortez as the top contender.

One can only hope, no way can she beat any Rep in a national election.

I was hoping they'd at least put up a reasonable alternative. 

 

This means at least 7 more years of screeching.

I can't see how she could win the primary.  Surely there's better Dems than her.   Only boxes she clicks are female & Hispanic. 

 

But that's all Harris had also, female & mixed race.   Maybe they're hoping that's all you need, as it worked for Obama, male & mixed race.

But the Dem elite won't let them win.  Chances are, they won't even let them on the primary ballot.

 

[KhunLA]

All she has in name recognition, and we she talks, she just 1 notch about Harris.

 

One Senator, says, people like her, is why they have instructions on shampoo ... too funny.

I've been warning about this for a long time now.

  Awesome.  

 

  Thank goodness America is following your warnings, lol.  

 

  For this particular fool to have any chance of victory, she'd first have to primary Schumer and win convincingly.  Then, she'd need to hire someone to write talking points in very simple English that she could repeat.

 

  That said, if Trump/Vance keep stepping on their own cranks, she may be - like Trump last year - the least objectionable candidate.  Still, difficult to see her winning a contested primary against Gavin Nuisance.

She’ll get the Socialist on the forum jumping for joy!

Socialism , such a dirty little word!

 

[Mike_Hunt]

If the Dems want to win, they would ensure someone sane like Josh Shapiro is the candidate.

  He can definitely carry a conversation.  Not sure he has the monetary backing to go far.  

 

  Might as well say "The Rock" if we're throwing Stephen A into the conversation.

I posted the rock many times in the past couple months. It's not crazy that he might try.

 

You can also look for Marc Cuban and Jamie Dimon to be talked about if not run.

I seriously doubt Americans will ever acquire enough maturity to elect a female President.

  They may express interest - Cuban/Dimon - but methinks that there's gonna be an anti-billionaire backlash coming sooner than the next election.  

 

  Not saying they can't influence an election for President but winning....nah. 

 

  Joe Average American has no idea who Dimon is and .... another reality TV President?  Figure the odds.

Excellent news

 

Excellent news for the Republicans, yes.  They really need to get it into their heads that "not being Trump" just isn't going to cut it.  Especially when Trump isn't running.

I hear Trump is considering becoming the US's 1st female president in 2028. After all it only takes a second to become a women in woke America. Would that satisfy you? Or would he not be a "real woman President"? Gotta love liberal logic

The demo put Hillary and Kamala up thinking it was smart. Don't put it past them to elect another useless candidate.

  Well yeah, but if he did that then he couldn't play in the women's club championship at his own golf course due to his own Executive Order.  Duh.  

 

  (I tossed in that emoji cause it seems to be very popular here, for whatever reason.)

  Concur.  But if we're being honest, prior to the 2016 election, most people on both sides thought Cankles would win, easily.  (Conversely, you'd have to be a true die hard to think Harris had a chance.)

 

  I don't think there's a strong candidate for successor yet on either side.....much will depend on how the mid-terms shake out, which will be a referendum on 47's half term.

 

  For as much as the Rs want to think Vance is inevitable - that's a conversation to be had.

The Republicans should run Nikki Haley against AOC. 

[KhunLA]

I'd vote for her, only if she picked Harris as VP ...

 

... Dumb & Dumber ...

 

Would be the funniest administration ever 

[riclag]

She wont be able to finish her term!

The world will end during her term.
