"He has an amazing team assembled to answer all calls. Jill takes the swing shift from 3-11PM. At 11PM Hunter on graves since he is so naturally awake and energetic covering the calls until morning. Winkin, Blinken and Nod cover the calls after 7AM until the boss rolls in around 10AM."
Probably an element of truth too this, horrifyingly
On VP, surf mommy is independent now right? If it's not Flynn and has to be a woman, that would be maximum keks. Reaching across the aisle and all that. Though I think she was spooky-adjacent when she served

In a bit more clear detail: No, but also maybe? If it were a midterm election the answer is maybe. Less publicity, no mainline ticket everyone is latched onto, a lot more financial wiggle room, and a lot more room to bury and memory hole inopportune things. On a presidential election though? None of that applies, and the candidates are shackled to the presidential run. When people go to vote they will think first of that race and then as an afterthought of the downballot races.

I hope the democrats are stuck with Biden because, to quote Henry Kissinger, you made your bed, now get fucked in it.

In theory? Yes. That would also be the right way forward for them to not get absolutely horse-fucked.
But they can't. I'll get into why in a moment.
Ignoring that a huge portion of their actually competent ground staff either fucked off in disgust years ago, or is flat-out working for the other side of the aisle now (don't be surprised), the drive from conventional leftism (I.E. oldschool Liberals) to the modern day variety (Progressives and Socialists) has inflicted considerable damage on the party apparatus at the local level. On the one hand, you still get quality leftist candidates occasionally from my generation that actually do their fucking jobs, which is fucking surreal this day and age. Several local Assemblymen in NY absolutely fall into this category and they are 100% receptive to anything their constituents need. You can usually tell these guys because they've usually had the job for decades and have almost unilaterally high approval ratings - and no desire to go beyond their station.
A lot of the Dem politicians in NYC, meanwhile, are exactly what you'd think: Political diversity hires, neoprogressive bumblefucks, and activist politicians that exist solely to push the angle. In normal electoral cycles, these are normally pretty safe - even when they fuck up hard, they can usually keep in the position by virtue of them running virtually unopposed by their own side. They do have to watch for dark horse candidates and the rare usurper candidate, but generally they've been able to weather anything through simple virtue of having a lock on things at the local level.
Now throw in that the current batch in office are the least competent, most corrupt, and most prone to power-tripping like entitled children and you are brought exactly to where we are now.
Putting it simply - these are politicians who only have the power they've had because they've made it, essentially, as hard to get rid of them as humanly possible. The DNC will throw money in their defense if it looks like any primary challenger emerges, and will rig as hard as humanly possible if an outsider candidate squeaks through in opposition. But if you look at how things are now, they have less support than they ever have. They've had to do the same level of rigging they did in 2020 to hold onto basic offices at this point, and with Biden anchoring the ticket they're likely going to have to rig just to make sure the Trump Curse doesn't claim its most hilarious victim to date, let alone the local levels.
That brings us back to why they can't furnish new candidates. The competing requirements of the DNC apparatus have made that fundamentally impossible. Groups like Justice Democrats will aggressively primary any candidate seen as insufficiently hard-left. NGOs will do the same for any candidate that looks like they'll be tough on crime or immigration. The DNC will do the exact same for any candidate that fails to suck establishment cock. And if you want donator money, you damn well better do all of these. Except these are all wildly unpopular with the voters. So the only ones they have pushing all of these are the current batch of morons.
In the end, they're face-to-face with the consequences of their own actions, and it's fucking hilarious.
Also Tulsi is thicc while Kamala has perpetually looked menopausal since forever.
Not to say I'd vote for Tulsi, just that JFK looked better than Nixon, Obama looked better than McCain, etc etc etc.
We're shallow people.

I can believe that. I've got family out there who are cosmopolitan artsy Manhattan Boomer/GenX types, and they've politically shifted to a surprising degree over the last two years.
All of them fall somewhere between middle-of-the-road Clinton/Biden Dem to not-quite Bernie/AOC but still progressive, and the party really lost them hard specifically due to the migrant issue. Eric Adams wasn't bullshitting when he said the city doesn't have the resources to deal with all the people, and the "illegal immigration isn't a big deal, that's just Southern racism" narrative imploded right in front of them. These people are naive, not retarded, and the way DC tries to downplay, ignore and shift blame for the issue for their own political purposes is obvious to everyone, they're literally seeing it with their own eyes.
The other big thing specific to NYC is Israel-Palestine. While typically a young hard-leftist issue, there's plenty of Jews in New York, and they're all not exactly convinced the party has their back. While I'm not suggesting either of these groups of people are gonna go vote Trump and flip the state, there's a lack of enthusiasm, to say the least.
The left's biggest strength and weakness is their ability to somehow have cohesion among various social, ideological, and ethnic groups by shaming, bullshitting and good-vibing their way through all the obvious contradictions and ideological conflicts. Problem is, it is all just a total illusion propped by human psychology/sociology, and when that dam breaks, it breaks hard. Biden's debate performance, and more specifically and most importantly, the media's acknowledgment of it, has now lit the spark of allowing open inter-party dissent to no longer be considered fringe or conspiratorial. The illusion is broken, and the cattle are out of their pen.
The only question remains is if the party can reign it back in and regain the people's trust, or will enough Dems smell blood in the water to try and usurpt the current party leadership. Either way, Biden's fucked.
(On a side note, I think that's what prompted this strange wave of sperging about Project 2025 the last week or so: It's a Hail Mary. The only way someone would still firmly be in Biden's corner is if they were retarded and/or desperate enough to be able to be convinced that a sleazy rich reality-TV douchebag on his third marriage wants to usher in a theocracy.)

Let me know if this is the right thread.
According to this xeet, furfags hacked the Heritage Foundation (propelling project 2025) and caused the executive director to reach out.

WTF, the Heritage Foundation is based?
But really, I don't always trust leaked chat logs, but when I do they are anonymously posted, in a .txt document, supposedly from a messaging system that make them unauditable, and released by a furfag.

Cuomo fucking murdered Jewish support for the Dems in NYC long before the Israel-Palestine debacle; that's just the newest thing giving them ample reason to fuck off away from the Dems. Pushing COVID shit and sending goons to crack down on synagogues did them no favors, and by 2020, they were openly backing the Donald, leading to the surreal image of a procession of Trump-supporting Orthodox Jews being attacked by masked and brownshirted ANTIFA goons for daring to leave the plantation.
There is optics backfire, and then there's whatever the fuck that was.

Hot and controversial take: Trump supporters should want Biden to stay in.
Biden is so popularly compromised, a lot of Dems will stay home. An easy Trump win.
If Biden is replaced, there's a chance, however small, that one of the currently lesser polling replacements might suddenly surge and galvanize support and beat Trump. Unlikely, I know, and I hope I'm wrong. But I feel the safest path to a Trump victory is that DR. Jill has diamond hands and lets the train wreck continue to November.

Heritage is pretty deep gov. They can just hand this over to the NSA and get it handled by Big Nigs. I feel like it's real just based on how I don't think the furry would make up a chat log where he's getting singed.

I disagree with this being controversial Toni Lahren said this much on piers Morgan. Biden is now a perpetual gift now that media turned on him.
