Is there any hope for a Democratic candidate in 2020 that isn't complete shit?
I think Dems will capitalize on nostalgia for Barack Obama and put up another limp-wrist corporate cocksucker that will talk big, but fall in line if he gets elected (pic related).
I'd honestly someone like Bernie, but I simply don't see who could fit that mold, and Bernie himself will be way too old by then.
Additionally, this talk of Hillary running AGAIN and Biden running makes me want to kill myself.

The Dems will probably get complacent about Trump's chances (again) and nominate another repulsive neoliberal.

The fact that they still haven't made a hard turn from Clinton tells me at the very least they aren't smart enough to move away from the thing that just killed their party.

Direct action gets the goods.

Democrats have absolutely no reason to abandon neoliberalism. There's just too much money in it. Even if they lose their seats they can always go work for Wall Street. The illusion of American democracy died after Citizens United.

Exactly. They are fucking retards who never learn.
If Trump gets impeached before 2020, a neolib may stand a better chance against Pence than they do Trump. Then we're back where we started, and any hope of real change will die when there isn't someone as divisive against Trump to fight against.

*as Trump

for the millionth time
and burgers will think this noble

Some girls are just born to lead user.

I dont want to save the proletariat anymore

I just want americans to die

What this guy said.

Well the good news is no one wanted her here, not even her husband.

If we do have an election then I think this time an independent might actually win.

Bernie is by far the leftmost person who ever had a shot at the presidency, so there.

Dems like Booker and Gillibrand are gonna be the next Walker-tier candidates tbh.They'll be prepping up for the primaries yet hilariously fail because of their debate performance.

I hope so.
If they're the only people who run we're fucked.

I think they will be pumped up like Jeb and Rubio but they wont appeal anymore than they did to their respective side. I feared Booker might be able to pull off an Obama 2.0 but after seeing him in interviews he flounders on simple questions, the dude just sucks.

They won't be. I hope Gabbard replaces David Ige as Governor then she'll have a case with the other Dems in 2020. I may shill for Brown but he fucked Bernie by endorsing shillary.

I fucking wish Kander beat Blunt in the general because I'd definitely think he'd be the progressive to be Trump in 4 years. Let's hope he primaries McCaskill in 2018.


Both have extremely boring backgrounds and have little as fuck charisma compared to Obama or even Shillary. Gillibrand does have an edge because she's pretty much shillary without the baggage and has gotten proles to organize for her numerous times.

*vomits*

...

Unruhe pls

...

he's the guy

Literally who?

do people on this board actually stayed informed politically at all or are you all too concerned with ideology?

I'm kidding.
There's no way a Muslim stands a real chance in the general

Kinda like that meme from Republicucks that they needed a Latino to win the White House, right? Anything is possible.

I'm only not backing Ellison because he has a good track record of neoliberalism himself.

lmao

this place ins't burgertown fam,how the fuck are we suppoed to know who some rando guy in American politics is?

...

This idea that if Trump can win, anyone can, is beyond retarded. White people will not vote for a guy who advocated reparations for slavery and who has strong links to the Nation of Islam and its batshit insane teachings.

If the Dems nominate a complete loser like Hillary again, who couldn't even beat the nationalist buffoon we have in charge now, they literally don't even want to win and just need to die off into the dustbin of history.

The establishment Democrats will always back an establishment candidate. Because if a true progressive like Bernie Sanders was in charge, the establishment crony hacks would be out of a job. It's all politics.

If whites could elect and re-elect a black guy who had ties to Jeremiah Wright with a middle name Hussein years after the fall of Saddam, then they could elect a Muslim from Minnesota as long as he doesn't take full idpol and speak progressive values.

We wanted hope and change. Same reason we went for Trump this time.
When HE inevitably disappoints the nation, we're not going to wake up either. Only elect the pseudo-left's new "populist." And Holla Forums will be right there on the front lines cheering him on.
We are trapped in an endless cycle of demagoguery, duplicity, and dumbassery.

That is implying there will even be a 2020 election. There's another recession coming within the year, the big banks are even bigger and pose a greater systemic risk than before the Great Recession, and the economy hasn't even recovered fully from that one. It could be very, very bad. Trump and Pence couldn't be further from Keynesians, they will not handle it well. The few remaining regulations they are even now attempting to undo could lead to a full-blown depression. And if someone isn't careful here, a revolution. Either a 2020 Democratic candidate will be the next FDR, adored by the people for going after wealth in every way they can, or the party will be overtaken by the Greens.

I'm an American and I agree with you holy fuck

with his superpac money and hillary endorsement he probably won't go near progressive values

Elizabeth would definitely be the nominee. Hell if a Trump presidency isn't a good enough reason for her to run, nothing is

amerifat reporting in
agree

Oh, boy, watching her suddenly turn around and slob on the bankers knob while democrats defend her every step of the way with zero cognitive dissonance would be fun.

I'm Canadian, but I'd be happy to die in the nuclear fires that engulf our southern border if it means no more US of A.

You can't leave Australia, Britain, and France out of this equation.

All equally deserve to suffer.

He's a protectionist.
The entire corporate media and large chunks of the political establishment railed against him with one voice because he's a protectionist.

*neoliberal with a combover*

What do you think "neoliberal" means, friend?

It is impossible to be president of the united states without being a neoliberal.

...

people are predicting Bernie Sanders (If he survives), Michelle Obama or Kayne West 2020 (he is a huge dumb meme through).

It's too soon to know for certain.

Literally why?

It is impossible for a true outsider to take the democratic nomination. Had Trump run for the dem nomination he would have be cockblocked by the super delegates despite having just enough to win (assuming he ended up in a similiar situation.)

Because Obama was so great :^)

No. Democrats are enemies of the left.

I hope they nominate the most status-quo establishment Joe possible.

But that's what they always did. Trying a candidate that isn't complete shit would be a change of pace.

That's what they always did but capitalism was still somewhat functional, so it worked out. Now that shit is going haywire the working class is getting pissed, but the elites can't figure out what's going on. I say let them continue down that path and keep losing and keep letting the income disparity grow so that left-leaning people can finally start to outgrow the Democratic party.

it should be ritual by now

how big is the chances of Tulsi Gabbard running?
also is she any good? i only know her foreign policies and they are based

who will fucking impeach him, the Republicans?

She's not remotely socialist.

is any US politician?

If he becomes a big enough midterm liability, sure.

Yes.

ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha is dis nigga srs

Liberals and their great man/woman of history mentality. End me.

didn't he endorse bernie?

CU is definitely something that politicians reach across the asile on, so it is probably either really good or really bad. Guess which one?

You're really smart

You underestimate the dislike of Muslims in the US. If Obama was actively practicing the Muslim faith I would bet that he would have lost in '08

Admittedly no matter who is in the crash is inevitable, the bubbles are too big as it is. All we can hope to do is ride the wave.

First trans female black president

yeah and I don't disagree, but there is such a thing as hysteria fatigue.

would trump have won if every single republican candidate for past several decades been called a racist in earnest?

how many people would see the "ELLISON IS A MUSLIM" ads and not just roll their eyes after all the obama crap they've already been through?

hadn't been called*

They will probably make Gavin Newsom candidate. a businessman who likes charity and gays.

You're probably right, but fuck I wish I could laugh at the fact that they would nominate a dude who straight up looks like he was ripped from American Psycho and could double as Trump's lost son and push him as "the people's champion"

But thats exactly why they will push him as people's champion. Americans like to pretend were not fat limp wristed fucks. Newsom is fugging gross but hes aesthetic
