Why the fuck is anyone talking about 2028. The campaigns that will launch in early 2027 will have the 2026 midterm results as a major component to their strategy. Let's focus on getting the largest possible majorities in Congress.

To win, we need candidates who aren't evil. That means they need to stand against Israel's genocide and commit to blocking all aid to Israel, they need to commit to impeaching Trump and prosecuting him for his crimes, and they need to be for Medicare for All.

Too many black swan events will occur first. My hope is that it’s not a flock.

Aa long as Democrats listen to consultants instead of constituents and continue to punch progressives in the face, you will continue being ruled by violent Nazis

With the shitlib stranglehold on the DNC, it's just more genocide and neoliberal stealing--albeit smirkingly rolled-up in a pride flag. (Last week they couldn't even pass a a resolution banning arms sales to Israel, ffs.) Unless policies change, nobody's up for another round of centrist blackmail.

Although, to be fair, I've been told that even their performative pride flag is missing a few colors.

Every single plausible contender in 2017 and 2018, when asked by reporters about a bid, said something like "Trump sucks; Republicans in Congress suck; vote in the midterms" and I think we all need that energy

I'm pretty sure a poll of Bluesky users in mid-2023 would have Fetterman and Whitmer listed as top presidential/vice presidential picks for 24 and 28. Now, people are allowed to change their mind, but let's just see what the political environment before we start issuing ultimatums

Also, regarding expansion of health care/insurance: Many of the changes to Medicaid in Republicans' Big Stupid Bill don't take effect immediately; they start in 2027 or 2028. The Democratic Congress will be focused on combatting those. Expansion from the 2024 baseline is...unlikely

Protect the right to vote freely and fairly. Republicans are dedicated to destroying the right to vote. Democrats are always caught flat-footed in awareness, action, and fighting back. When only one side is fighting the war, that side will win.

Why isn’t the DNC doing anything?!

It's annoying seeing Newsom glazers lining up to a nonexistent voting booth. And when we point out legitimate criticisms of him, they get pissed off for some reason. And they wonder why they're called Blue Maga
