Why I've said for weeks if they replace him, it will be a sacrificial lamb they want to destroy their future in big races...Kamala or Stacy Abrams, etc.


This is a rare time in my 60 year life. It’s the first time I can remember the DNC without a highly promoted FUTURE candidate in the background. The DNC has no bench to call upon for a replacement or for the next election cycle.

Matter of fact I don’t see any viable candidates for the highest offices on the entire roster for the DNC. The big push Left has all their “faces” as extremists incapable of winning outside their region, state tops.

Newsome

But they would be idiots to waste him on a near guaranteed loss in 2024, damaging his chances in 2028.

Newsome has a good shot to get 8 years after Trump wins in 2024, and they don't have anyone right now past him. Why waste him?

That’s a great point but they would have zero qualms doing it. The sheep would eat up the narrative of how they would paint Kamala as a clown.

Its scary that, on a conservative site like this, there are so many people so indoctrinated into dei that they are fearful of their own shadow.

First, blacks will vote however they are told to vote.

Second, Kamala polls worse than joe, she will not be a nominee.

Third, this is not royal succession of the monarchy, no one is promised squat.

Fourth, if she balks they will bring forward several of her staffers, all black and female, some lesbian, some trans, a few handicapped, and they will scream racism, discrimination, humiliation, and that she secretly hates tupac.

Fifth, the media will walk lockstep in amplifying the aforementioned, and they are SHOCKED, SHOCKED, I tell you, that she is so wicked. And she will not be able to get a job on a late night cooking show on local cable.

Sixth, the state legislature of california will pass another 2cents per gallon tax on evil gas, take the money and give themselves a kickback to make "an unprescedented move in these trying times" and elect Kamala to be governor when oldsome announces his presidential run.

Zero.

They would all vote for a dead corpse over a black woman if they win. It doesn’t matter. What they say is all bullshite and republicans give them power by cowering to their bullshite words.

90% of black people are going to vote for who they are told to vote for by Jim Clyburn and Al Sharpton, and a few other mouthpieces It does not matter who the candidate is or what the candidate stands for.

Remember 4 years ago when we wondered if it mattered the Joe Biden had a pretty strong anti-black past. Well it didn’t matter.

If the DNC tells black people to vote for Gavin Newsom then black people will vote for Gavin Newsom at a rate of 90+%.

I really don't think black folks have any great love for Kamala but the Democrats are terrified of taking that chance.

It isn’t that they aren’t smart enough

It’s that it’s all theater and the Republicans are just playing the “opposition”. They aren’t really trying to win.

That’s why the GOPe hates Trump just as much as the left.


I used to think this was tin foil type stuff, but not so much anymore. The Republicans could so easily smear the Democrats in a way that would appeal to the emotional kids whose vote, for some reason, still matters even though they don’t know anything and haven’t done shite.

If they went with Newsom, it would be so easy for Republicans to say, “Democrats couldn’t stand to see a black woman elected so they got a privileged white guy!”

They could’ve also gotten a LOT of mileage out of the “then they ain’t black” quote. Republicans could have formed a narrative, “White plantation owning Democrats think black people are all the same and are too stupid to make decisions on their own.” We talk about Republicans giving the Democrats too much fuel (especially Trump) which is true, but the Dems have shite that could easily be exposed too. Republican politicians are dumb.

Just funny the party that is supposed to hate the white males and all of their privilege would choose Newsome over a black female who was good enough to be their VP for 4 years.


Hillarious that the libs choose a brain dead, dementia riddled, old, privileged white guy over a handicapped, woman of color, vice POSUS with 4 years of useless experience!!

At this point I think they are more worried about losing than the DEI optics. They all know Kamala is a losing prospect.

They vote on their issues and for being black… Biden said the quiet part out loud when he said “you ain’t black”
