The DNC is a cluster frick meanwhile Trump/Vance machine is registering new voters everyday. The Republican nominee will have a huge head start for 2028. The Dems are all infighting for donors and organizations.

Dems have a laundry list of problems but, all their candidates that may be considered front runners are just thoroughly unlikeable and unrelatable to mainstream America.

Trump is smart, he's clever too.

Willie is wrong though... the democrats shat their own bed, gleefully.

It isn't so much he outmaneuvered the democrats as they outmaneuvered themselves.

Trump isn't "making" them look "bad".. They ARE, objectively, terrible. Period.

And as long as they see our country as a "game"... well, frick 'em.

I don't think Trump is playing any type of game.
He doesn't need to, he's simply delivering his campaign promises.

Trump doesn't have to DO anything to make the Dems look bad, they do a great job of that!
Combined with Dems having no strategy or plan other than, "Trump bad", they are beating themselves.

Willie is going to have to have an affair with another up and coming DA in order to pick the next presidential candidate.

He doesn’t give the voters enough credit.

Not totally disagreeing with you here, BUT I will give him credit for appearing on all of the smaller platforms and podcasts (besides MSM). He absolutely out maneuvered the dims on that one. I think he gained a shite ton of votes.

Before the riots Newsom was cutting back on welfare and food stamps to illegals. Which is obvious to be anarchists and La Raza groups.

Newsom was trying to move to the center. I got news for Willie---- America won't be fooled again with fakes, those that fake moderacy are no more...

quote:

Former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown told Newsmax on Wednesday he wasn't surprised that Democrats lost the presidential election in November, and that regardless of their candidate, they would have lost because President Donald Trump "is too smart, too clever."

Brown, 91, speaking to "Finnerty" amid the ongoing riots in Los Angeles following Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids in the city, added that Trump's political skills continue to make the Democratic Party look bad.

"We Democrats would probably have lost that election, no matter who our candidate was going to be," said Brown, a Democrat and longtime power broker in California who was mayor of San Francisco from 1996 to 2004. "Donald Trump was just too smart, too clever.

"And he's playing that same game again. And believe me, it's causing us to look awfully bad under these circumstances."

Brown said had such riots occurred in San Francisco when he was mayor, he would not have allowed them to get out of control. Trump activated the California National Guard and deployed Marines to Los Angeles in response to the rioting.

"Let me be clear: I do believe the police department that I was in charge of would never allow anyone, no matter what political side they're on, to do some of the things that are being done," he said. "They would be right out of the box addressing the issue in a way that would provide for the public safety of the people who are in their city."

California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a political protégé of Brown who succeeded him as San Francisco mayor, serving two terms, has contemplated running for president in 2028. Brown said Newsom's response to the rioting in Los Angeles should not affect his political future.

"Gavin Newsom will be a good candidate," Brown said. "Whether or not he will win the presidency clearly will depend upon how well he does at getting the votes of the people.

"Kamala Harris, whom I said had a great future, clearly she did not deliver the message to the public in the way in which she should, and as effectively she lost the election to Donald Trump.

Mmm... the way I see it is that Trump actually campaigned, period. Kamala only spoke to very few, very scripted outlets.

If campaigning is outmaneuvering... we will win many, many more elections.

Season and cast iron in high heat ooni oven for an incredible crusted sear, add butter and garlic for a quick bath finish, and rest.

Miller had this whole plan and scenario mapped out over the past few years. Ready to roll from day one of Trumps 2nd term. He had every possible scenario laid out. Including having the Dems on the 20% side of all the issues. It is working perfectly and what is amazing is no one on the left has caught on !

I said the 24 election was gonna be too big to rig. And the midterms and 28 are gonna be the same. The Dems are committing suicide and their hate for Trump is why, that’s all they are focused on, they may be done for 20 years

He is one of the smartest Democrats around. That is who Biden should've made his VP

I never thought in my lifetime that I'd find myself agreeing with Willie Brown.

Well yeah.

It’s pretty hard to be when your core platform is intersectional grievance politics overlaid by globalist economic structures that don’t elevate anyone but themselves.
