Ok whining Dems, if not Joe Biden then who?

Certainly not Newsom. We will loose badly.

I love Pete B but he isn't ready.

Honestly the Dems need to get their shit together and start a good damn brilliant campaign so Biden gets re elected

I saw some poll that the best combo to win would be Harris and Hilary... I personally would like someone that is not another 70 year old but that's just me.

I fear it’s going to take a miracle. Republicans just say that project 25 is all made up and fear mongering by the Dems. I just don’t know how to even try because they are in their own little world and not realizing all the ways it will affect them. Veterans, those with preexisting conditions, union members, seniors that rely on SS and Medicare, those that rely on free lunches - oh people were so made that someone hungry kid might get a free lunch, any type of welfare. Of course abortions - so many don’t realize it’s not just those loose women that are just sleeping with anything - that was much nicer than women were saying on a local group - couldn’t stay quiet - that many are for life saving reasons and I went into some details. These women just thought anyone that got pregnant and want one had to be a horrible person, no compassion that a woman or girl could get raped etc. Not that it’s any ones business why but that that there are a lot of reasons and often to save a life.

No more NATO which has kept peace for 75 years. Russia and China must be just sick with glee knowing we will back out. They have been waiting and it didn’t happen during TFG first term and they didn’t want to wait any longer.

Vance saying women should stay married even in cases of DV. Wanting to devalue the dollar so we can get an edge on exports but at what cost. Everything we import will be even more plus the new at least 10% additional tariffs.

There is just too much.

I really don’t see anyone that could step in other than Harris but don’t know if she could win. They should have been pushing her into the spotlight the last few years. I know she has been groomed but the message hasn’t gotten out there. Newsome I don’t think his name is out there enough.

There's no good solution for replacing Biden which is one of the reasons why Democrats and the media need to stop talking about it. VP Harris is really the only choice in terms of fundraising. However, she regrettably made a few mistakes early on and conserve media has attacked her, just like Hillary. Her poll numbers are lower than Biden's. Skip over her and a lot of Democrats will rightfully be angry, creating more chaos. Not only that, but people voted for Biden in the primaries. If the delegates ignore that and choose their own candidate, people will be angry.

There are a lot of rising stars in the Democratic Party that I hope to see in 2028. Pete B, Amy Klobuchar, Gretchen Whitmer, Shapiro, Corey Booker, Beto O'Rourke, Chris Murphy, Jasmine Crockett etc. Newsom clearly has presidential aspirations but he wouldn't be my choice

That would be an automatic win for Trump... two women?  One black... nope not in this world would that ever happen.  Sad to say.

Actually that's not a bad idea. Right now, she has support, but no-one really knows just how effective she could be as President. With President Biden down with Covid, now would be a great time to showcase what Vice President Harris can do. 

I've heard this suggested.  The challenge I think is that she would have to be a new President and run for office in a very abbreviated campaign at the same time.

PA Governor Josh Shapiro, California Governor Newsom, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear and Illinois Governor JB Pritzker.

HAHAHA 

i totally agree.  logistically, this is the only choice that makes sense.  for people who are saying they are voting for the sake of policy then she is the best person to carry that on and institute some of her own that would align with the party.

there simply isn't time and money to bring in an unknown or untried.  we have our wishful suggestions but either they are only know regionally or it isn't their time.  

i think Biden will step down.  i think they are just working on getting the transition to move as smoothly as possible so when he announces he is stepping aside, the campaign will be off and running.  my only concern now is the VP pick.   

regarding the old white men, i agree with the old but i think there is still that swath of voters that seek that out.  they are still clinging onto the idea that the face of the US is white, male, and  middle aged.  i would love for a woman, a minority, or LGBT to have their time but it seems that some people are hesitant to put them in the top position.

I could roll with Harris/Beshears.

I have not been in the camp that Biden needs to step aside but I expect the announcement to be made in the next few days. I think it will be Kamala and Josh Shapiro on the ticket.

I have suddenly realized the significance of all of the pundit retweets I saw this morning about Kamala going back to NC today to campaign with Cooper.

I think there are some concerns about the Senate if she is elevated to President now.  Especially, given the pressure on Sonia Sotomayor to retire so Biden can replace her before the election. If she is elevated to President, she can choose a new VP, but here's the kicker... that choice must be approved by majority vote in both the House (which the GOP controls) and the Senate.  So we should assume no VP will be chosen before the election, so there is no one to break ties in the Senate.
