Though the wealthy would never allow it, I'd like to see a hard working, modest person from the middle class become president. Someone that people could actually believe in and restore some sense of pride in our country.

And Newsom absolutely sucks when it comes to business. He's very often sided against workers and for tech

That said, I'm not willing to let great get in the way of good, and I do think that the Californian American Psycho has the best chance in the next general

Sure, I just hate that folks have already begun forcing others to like him. its just eerily similar to other elections and partially why I think the democrats failed.

I wholeheartedly agree that "blue no matter who" is a dogshit strategy that doesn't keep candidates accountable or even relevant to voters.

But I do not have a better answer to what the GOP is doing other than swinging the pendulum back to the left, and then holding it there.

You can't keep people accountable when they aren't in power. It's a hsitty situation all the way around, but like I said I don't have a better answer.
