You mean Hilary. This is clearly the chance to beat that dead horse again!
"They will put up x candidates I dislike"
Vote in the fucking primaries then, holy shit. Make a progressive win the primaries for the love of God please
Personally, I would be ok with J.B. Pritzker. Don't love that he's a billionaire. On the other hand, he's the best governor Illinois has had in ages and seems to be trying to do right by his constituents.
I would not be happy about Pritzker as the dem nominee...
...Because then he wouldn't be my governor anymore :(
Pritzker's the man. It pains me to praise a billionaire but he's been an AWESOME governor. Wish we could get a Pritzker-type for Chicago mayor instead of these chucklefucks we keep electing.
Back in the day, Abraham Lincoln did not vow to end slavery if elected.
Frederick Douglas worked for Lincoln, because Lincoln was the best candidate.
If it is not Bernie, AOC I ain't going to vote. Also ain't voting for anyone funded by AIPAC.
They already could have had a progressive candidate in 2016. They chose otherwise.
AOC might not want to be POTUS though? It’s odd how many people have decided this for her.
Of course they will. Either pick them or they'll send it all to hell. Even now they probably think this Trump stint will make voters desperate for their next candidate.
Captive audience, it’s why they felt so confident cozying up to Republicans like the Cheneys, because what are the left going to do, not vote?
It’s great really, you perpetuate a problem and constantly blame the people trying to actually bring about much needed change for the problem.
