Yes, yes, the Dems are inadequate.
But they’re not aggressively and maliciously monstrous.
And no, a third party has no chance of winning at this time and place.
And *monstrous* is the price of trying.
This isn’t complex, FFS.
@McPatrick @StillIRise1963 The Democrats don't have to be inadequate. There is a primary. There *could* be a candidate beside Biden in that primary. Maybe someone younger and more progressive.
Instead of conceding the future, we could perhaps work to make it better.

Work on making Congress better. Your not going to do better than Biden for President.
@joeinwynnewood My only member of congress whose seat is in question if the Senate seat held by the late Sen. Feinstein. I'd be interested in hearing who should replace her in 2025. Newsom is saying that he will not name any of the declared candidates to fill out the rest of her term so it will (hopefully) be an open seat.
If you think there is any reason to replace Rep. Jimmy Panetta you are welcome to say so, but he is the incumbent in a very safe CA-19 district.
@antares
How many Republicans flipped seats in CA in 2022?
Work on every one of those.
There are also 3 vulnerable Senators up for reelection in MT, NV & WI (Manchin is toast and good riddance).
And this year, really important state judge positions are up in PA along with several school board races to oust MAGA book banners. TurnPABlue.org is doing great work & needs vols & $.
Also Virginia needs to hold the state Senate & retake the state Assembly to protect the #FreedmToDecide.
