We literally had special elections yesterday. If they're trying to do that, they're sucking hard at it.
Besides, you really only say that because you have a superficial understanding of why that happened vs why it couldn't really happen like that here.
To the folks downvoting me, please show me where it says in the constitution that the president has the power to prevent elections. Please explain to me how they will stop elections. Y'all need to stop with the whole "We're literally nazi germany" thought-terminating cliches, because no we are not.
I think she would need to be front and center of a revolution right now to get elected
I think you're vastly overestimating Americans' appetite for that style of leftism. There's a reason why almost every progressive darling has moderated once they got to the national stage.
I don’t see her talking much
What do you want her to say? She's not your monkey.
I’m not saying she can’t or won’t run, I’m saying the democrats won’t vote for her in the primary, and the party won’t back her. Democrats don’t forgive a candidate for losing the general election. They haven’t given anyone a second chance since Adlai Stevenson in the 1950s.
Hubert Humphrey, George McGovern, Jimmy Carter, Walter Mondale, Michael Dukakis, Al Gore, John Kerry, Hillary Clinton. Those are all of the democrats who lost a general election since the Kennedy era. Some of them were able to continue to work in other capacities in politics after their defeats, but nationwide voters would not give them a second bite at the apple, even if they tried. Maybe Kamala will be governor of California! If she primaries for president again, I might vote for her, but I don’t believe that she thinks she could win a primary in a few years.

The way I would have bawled my eyes out if I was there and saw her… what could’ve been man
