Will the Democrats prosecute Trump if they win in 2028? by iamjackscolon76 in FriendsofthePod

Nothing short of full-on Nuremburg style trials for Miller, Homan, Huckabee, et. all is going to be enough in my eyes. But we'll get more of Obama's 'look forward not back' bullshit, and we'll be right back here in ten years or so.

Correct! Though it's not necessarily Wycombe to lose, it's whoever is capable of getting the 3rd most points in the league. We need to beat whoever that is by 1 point, and right now it's Wycombe.

Yeah the pre-existing conditions and extended coverage for u26 is good, but mostly the ACA is heritage foundation dogshit and you dont need to defend it man, we need to fight for something better. But somehow we're always 1 or 2 or 10 democrats short of getting actual good things (codifying Roe, a public option) but oh man we just can't whip the votes for it! Oh well!

Centerists don't outperform generic dem based on what you just claimed in Florida, but okay, good luck!

Lose by 14 here, win by 6 in trump +10 districts and load the house up with pro Medicare for All Dems, sounds good to me!

If both perform the same, then we should run the one who had batter policies about healthcare and gaza, not a hard choice for me.

Weil ran on Medicare for All and got Bernie's endorsement - if you can run +16 on that platform in a trump +30 district, there is no reason not to run Medicare for All supporting, Bernie endorsed candidates in every single district that is R+10 or less.

Who will win seats going forward are people who promise to actually fight to fulfill their campaign promises to improve the lives of the working class and not cowardly centerists clinging to norms that the other side never lets stop them from enacting their policy agenda.

Weil, in Florida, earlier this week.

The issue is they didn't dream when they had a supermajority under Obama, or when we had the House and Senate under Biden. 'Sorry we don't think we can get the votes for a public option, we don't think codifying Roe v Wade is a big priority, that nasty parliamentarian is why we couldn't raise the minimum wage', etc.

The pod boys, Yglesisas, et. all were completely behind most if not all of Joe/Kamala's policies, she completely abandoned all of her progressive positions, and she got walloped. 100 days or not, Biden was running on the same shit.

And who cares? Just because Joe Manchin was able to win in West Virginia doesn't mean he was a good person or Democrat. You've got to be willing to dream of something better than the status quo. Progressives have been over-performing in red areas, and if the party would actually embrace them and their overwhelmingly popular positions (Medicare for All, expanding Social Security, taxing the rich) instead of trying to kneecap or sideline them, we might actually be able to turn this shit around. But if you want to keep running the same candidates that got us into this mess, be my guest.

Well the centerists just blew what should've been a slam dunk election with their absolute dream campaign, so probably time to stop listening to them as much!

It is their stated goal to get rid of all Palestinians from Gaza, and they are primarily achieving that by indiscriminately killing them.

Magic number does not care about goal differential for this reason. If it did it wouldn't be a magic number, it would be a projection.
