They'll not nominate a Justice Democrat as that won't make corporate donors money. I don't see how anyone or anything could recover the resultant shitshow except the Justice Democrat platform.
Kamala seemingly the only one with some name recognition, is the same vague bullshit with some identity politics, which would be inadequate.
Who else is there?
Newsom is probably the only other viable candidate out there
Whitmer.
If she admits it was a mistake to pressure michigan voters to not vote uncommitted I'd be down, but she is a corporate dem still.
She is, yes, but that wasn't the question. The question was about name recognition, which Whitmer has.
I wouldn't be great with Newsom, either, since he's been moving to the right to appease the republican-adjacent wing of the party. But either would be an improvement over Biden, who in turn is still preferable to Trump.
Pritzker
Running a Pritzker/Fetterman ticket on the theory our candidates can beat the Republicans in a wrestling match
🤣
What are his views on the 100% EV tariff, high speed rails, and homelessness?
On the last of the three, he did do some good in getting them housed during the height of COVID. But, he's also sabotaged efforts to break up convicted killer PG&E and declared that he would never sign a wealth tax. He's corpo to the core with a little occasional softness.
Would love Pete Buttigieg over Newsom but honestly will take anyone that can beat Trump
Anyone they pick from now will get name recognition no matter who they are from media presence alone. Changing candidates at this stage will be significant news.
Drop him for who?
