Trump removed from situation room because of erratic behavior which threatened to jeopardize mission. Sounds like reason for Vance and the cabinet to remove Trump from office under the 25th Amendment.

Trump nominates someone with real qualifications and not an anti-vaxxer to head CDC. Hopefully this leads to an end to the politicalization of the CDC previously seen under both Trump and Biden.

When progressives don't vote for establishment Democrats it is not because they are dissatisfied with only getting some of what they want as centrists claim. It is because centrist Democrats support 90% of the Republican agenda other than for fundraising on social issues.
Trump says diet coke kills cancer cells because it kills grass. What does he think of Roundup? We know drinking bleach is not off the table for him.

I accept responsibility. You are avoiding responsibility for your support for genocide
Stop trying to justify your support for genocide. I oppose it but you are OK for it as long as from a Democrat
This says I oppose both rapists and genocide while you are OK with genocide, attacks on civil liberties, and destruction of public health as long as it comes from a Democrat.
Remove Schumer
Getting rid of Trump is not enough. Trump is using the excessive powers given to the president by Bush, Obama & Biden. Their actions must also be reversed. This is a problem caused by both duopoly parties. jacobin.com/2026/04/trum...
Not at all analogous to what I said. I want a president who is neither a rapist or pro genocide
Or course not. That is a bare minimum but just not being a rapist is not enough to make someone a decent government official.
I'm talking about policy. Not being a rapist is not enough. It is a bare minimum. They also must not be pro genocide, pro war, anti civil liberties, anti democracy, anti science like today's centrists (along with Republicans)
They don't lose every time but this did cost them the election in 2016 and 2024. They won despite a blatantly rigged primary in 2020 but wound up losing control of Congress and the 2024 election. Democrats have also used the rules to get centrist candidates since the 1980s. Some have won.

In the past Trump has complained about warrantless mass surveillance but now he supports renewal without changes, opposing reform, clutching to the power this gives him. Two years ago Biden blocked attempts to reform FISA and increased mass surveillance.

Trump shares responsibility for the increase in racist attacks he encourages even if he was not personally involved.
Similarly Biden/Harris share responsibility for the suppression of protest which they encouraged even if not prosecuted by the federal government (often by Democratic prosecutors).

Vaccine skepticism increasing. Obviously RFK Jr & other right wing anti-vaxxers have been a disaster. Biden's dishonesty re Covid has also contributed to the problem.

Yes. I liked the use of the trolley problem but it is a stretch to argue to vote for Harris because of less genocide. Plus the risk of future wars was higher by voting for Harris than Trump (but nobody should have voted for Trump based on him campaigning as the peace candidate).
Maybe less genocide. Or maybe more as allowing the supposedly lesser evil party to get away with genocide does more to normalize it and increases the risk of genocide in the future.
Instead of automatically registering people for the draft they should have automatic registration to vote.

You need to offer people something worth voting for, beyond labels. Being Republican-lite doesn't work. The people Democrats go after with such tactics will almost always vote Republican. Need to concentrate on people open to voting for Democrats and to be different from Republicans.
I'm a doctor, not PoliSci major (but I did take some polisci classes decades ago as an undergrad)
In 2024 millions of Democrats did not turn out for Harris because she said she'd do the same as Biden (other than appoint a Republican to the Senate) and would continue to support genocide.
True. People now think that Biden is some sort of liberal because he is a Democrat but he became a Democrat in the days before the current left/right divide in parties and there were both conservative Democrats & liberal Republicans. Biden was even to the right of Ronald Reagan at times when Senator
However when you poll by issues rather than labels, the Democratic base and independents are significantly to the left of the Democratic establishment--which has moved right. Democrats like Biden and Clinton supported Bush's right wing policies & Biden was often to the right of Ronald Reagan.
