MODERATORS
Believe it or not, but candidates don't have to be set in stone. I'm no fan of "but we couldn't do anything about East Palestine" Buttigieg, but I'd take him over either leading candidate any day. I have an even lower opinion of Newsom, but I'd even pick him. Biden is no longer in a position to be a strong counter to Trump.
Edit: in anticipation of good faith questions, my top pick of all major democrats would be MN Governor Walz. I genuinely believe he is the most competent leader in the entire country at the moment, but he has absolutely no aspirations for presidency.
LOL I just had a discussion with someone in another thread about how Walz would be great, but the person I was talking to said he didn't think Walz had the name recognition.
I think the problem is his national name recognition is from George Floyd protests. (And the Agitators that were 100% from outside our state.)
It was a difficult and challenging time and he rose to it.
Walz is an excellent governor, and he would make an excellent president but I think he’s done after this term.
Without a doubt, he'd be amazing. Unfortunately his lack of recognition outside of the Midwest is also a huge downside. He'd be seen as a nobody coming from the weird lefty state
Not a lot of people were fans with Biden hence the non commital votes.
It was trump trial that was likely too fascinating for anyone to pay close enough attention during the primaries though.
