"In order to beat Donald Trump we must become Donald Trump" | /r/neoliberal tries to plan an early draft for the '28 party platform

Read a tweet that said Dems are the party of hall monitors and HR associates. We need an butthole. Someone that isn't afraid of making bad headlines, says NAUGHTY WORDS! Someone that can say on national TV that Trump is a dumbass for prying America from Europe, imply that Putn and Trump are in a gay relationship. Come off kinda bad at first but kinda unique.

A relationship would be too much respect, sexual references maybe, but nothing that suggests emotion on Putin's side.

"And now our allies are being crapped on by a man who'd suck Putin's peepee for a nickel, as though Putin would charge that little."

We need Rahm Emanuel, but newer. Maybe get Ari Gold from Entourage. Al Franken probably would have good, we need someone who is "un-polished" (Irl they're actually super polished but they're pretending not to be) and speaks "off the cuff".

When I watched Dems bring those signs in, I really thought we finally became the party of overly sensitive college students who protested speakers by snapping their fingers. It gave me "SF city council approves gaza ceasefire vote" vibes for some reason, in terms of just cringe and pointlessness.

>finally

Maybe Kulinski? Has some banger tweets

That's considered a banger? That's just a mindless juvenile comment a preteen would make. I don't think Dems running candidates with the same flaws as the GOP is the win you think it is. If a shitty juvenile unqualified Dem wins, we're still stuck with a shitty juvenile unqualified president.

"Same flaws" except they win, support Ukraine, and treat trans people like they're human

I've been through this before - perhaps you win an election, but there may not be anything left of the party when you do.

>implying that the Democratic Party as it stands is worth saving

Don't these same people complain all the time about how ineffective Dems are at doing anything? What the frick would be lost by torching it all?

There's also a funny irony in all these commenters talking about what a Dem version of Trump would be like while overlooking the fact that part of Trump's takeover was a full repudiation of the values the party had been leaning toward when they were dealt humiliating defeats by that uppity I mean upstart Obama. A pretty obvious parallel would be Blue Trump going on a proper purge of all the intersectional garbage causes coming out of social media and the Ivy League but as posts like this suggest:

"Same flaws" except they win, support Ukraine, and treat trans people like they're human

that'll never happen because these people literally worship that shit.

When thinking of who on the liberal side could even work as their model of an anti-Trump (so someone who's both cutting in a funny way and an actual butthole) the only person I can think of is Bill Maher and, again, he's a non-starter because of his bickering with the trans-mutationals. If we are sticking to Blue Trump as the ideal candidate then being a TV personality is obviously non-negotiable. It already has some traction amongst liberals based on how many people to this day will say that Jon Stewart should run for President. But even though he's good at being cutting, Jon Leibowitz doesn't strike me as unhinged enough to imply that Megyn Kelly is acting up because she's on her period . All the other TV people are at best the very epitome of soy impotent rage.
