I thought that during the 2020-2024 interim the Democrats were supposed to be building someone up for the next generation of the party. To no one's surprise, they've been doing exactly fuck-all for four years - but, for insiders who actually care about the party's future, who are they hanging their hat on? Voters' confidence in Kamala has tanked; Cuomo was maybe their man until the sexual harassment charges hit (side question: how was he able to skate on the nursing home scandal?). But anyway, who's the next empty neoliberal they'll run in future elections?

    Holy shit he's a neolib android dream. He's plasticky. He gave me a vibe of a casual president in some insanely shit Hallmark tv movie called Me and the President Fell in <3. If you turn the sound off - you can make up dialog in your head and pretend it is that movie and he's trying to seduce her.

    1:07 "This is the real thing! You know how much I care for you. But it's more than that. I love you!..."

    1:16 He does an impression of her mom telling him "Gavin, you are the man for her. She needs more than anything..."

    I don't know what the actual audio is. I like my version much more than whatever it is. Still - what the fuck was up at 1:16!
