I’d also assume you’d need to leverage empathy to read the reaction of your audience and adjust your performance accordingly. It’s a very different craft than a musical performance, where narcissism is advantageous. It would probably be very challenging to be a narcissistic clown.

He didn’t change his opinion of Trump. He changed his opinion of Hitler.
One of the Antichrist’s heads. Lol
It’s supposed to be a fatal wound on one of its heads.
Just imagine if they saw the hexagonal columnar basalt prior to rounding from erosion.🤯
What non-citizens actually affect is house representation based on population, even though they aren’t allowed to vote in congressional elections. Republicans leverage gerrymandering to capture the power of the populated areas with limited registered voters. Just another reason why it’s so important we all vote in all elections. Democratic turnout has been below 50% for the last three elections, with a record high for a midterm election of 49% in 2018.

Oh, same here. I’m just honestly not sure who could secure a win in a four month window with the broad demographics of Democrats.
Higher income Democrats. People who dislike Biden’s student loan forgiveness probably won’t like Newsom’s stance on reparations.
What’s switching to another low polling candidate going to do? I’m just suggesting they nominate someone that poll tests higher before repeatedly calling for him to step down.
That’s true. Although it’s just as possible she’ll say the wrong thing and lose points. Some voters on the left are quick to abandon a candidate.
Cool. So the best alternative is still expected to lose? Maybe it’s time to stop calling for a replacement.

Firebrand is synonymous with radical. I think it’s an accurate description.
I agree that four months is insufficient time to prepare and execute a campaign. They had no reason to poll test earlier, since Biden won the 2024 primary.
Your comment illustrates how our broken news system is the reason why four months is an insufficient runway for candidate policy clarity.
How do you consider Buttigieg a neoliberal? He wants to remove financial lobbying and stock trading permissions from Congress, create a nine Justice SCOTUS with three Democrat nominated Justices, three Republican, and three voted in by the previous six, his campaign raised $80M from small donations, and he endorsed the Green New Deal.
Just because he’s not as progressive as AOC or Bernie, doesn’t mean he’s not a big step in the right direction.
I also like that he’s grounded in his suggestion of opening up the conversation, rather than immediately calling for Biden to step down. The DNC should’ve started poll testing alternates immediately after the debate. There needs to be an informed plan for an alternate. Calling for Biden to withdraw with a four month runway, without a more popular and independently funded candidate is reactionary and reckless.
This year. Biden, Phillips, Williamson, and Palmer. Biden won all primaries except for the American Samoa.

They eventually get repayed to the investors. They won’t be immediately available to any candidate other than Harris.
I see where you’re coming from. I agree that he’s very loyal to Israel. I’m not as certain that he wants to be supporting the slaughter of innocent Palestinians. With Biden’s cease-fire in place, it would at least put the responsibility of accountability directly on him if Netanyahu breaches the agreement.
He started selling these on Monday. He didn’t call the wife of the victim until Tuesday.
