    We don’t need fake witchhunts and Trump style retribution investigations.

    We need criminals to be held accountable for their criminality.

    But after Trump, those two things are going to look awfully similar and the next democratic president is going to have to be willing to weather that storm. Defending the constitution requires it.

    Heck we could use a Democratic Senate leader who is merciless.

    Every time Chuck Schumer takes the gloves off it just reveals another pair of gloves underneath.

    I sometimes wonder if Mitch McConnell’s health is tanking so hard because he’s exhausted from also being Chuck Schumer.

    The next Democrat president should do all the things Republicans have accused them baselessly of doing.

  4. I will vote, campaign for, donate to, and volunteer for the candidate who inflicts the maximum amount of pain and retribution on the republicans

    I want every maga politician tried on treason charges and sent to a gulag with their ability to serve in politics curtailed permanently. The presidency should also be cut down to size and made subservient to congress along with publicly funded elections and a reversal of citizens united.

    Honestly- the next adults that get into power have to basically redress the whole failure of reconstruction… we’re long overdue for actual accountability, and yes, it will be painful for everyone.

  7. It can’t just be the President; it has to be the entire party from top to bottom. From congress to governors and even mayors. Make the GOP pay bigly for what they did, and make sure they don’t forget it

    They’ll force some centrist on us, and they’ll pull the “its time to heal” bullshit again. Nothing will be done, the moderates and conservatives serve the same masters.

    The problem with a Democrat running on being merciless is that Trump has created a private army culpable in many crimes with everything to lose. They will have to be much more nuanced in their approach.

  10. This is the closest I’ve ever been to being a single issue voter. I want a ruthless approach to fixing this bullshit. I want accounts frozen, indictments, trials. I want the court expanded. I want actual ethics for the SC. The person who says “we right the ship by throwing the worst overboard” gets my vote.

  11. I want a democratic president who shares, at least, a tenth of hatred I have for conservatives and right-wingers.

  12. Free campaign advice for any Democrat that wants to be president. Just say this in front of cameras every time you speak:

    “If you want a President that will lower your bills, tax the shit out of the super wealthy, prosecute the lawless Trump regime, and go after every single corrupt billionaire and corporation in America, vote for me.”

  13. We were dragging former SS camp guards and murderous nazi collaborators out of retirement and into the courtrooms well into the nineties, and many still escaped justice. (The Netherlands)

    So you better start soon.

  14. And by “merciless” we really just mean “willing to enforce the law”, which is actually what the job of President is.

  15. At this point, I’m just hoping they finally realize they will never get GOP to negotiate in good faith. They should realize that they in fact, must go nuclear with their legislation because the GOP have proven that they won’t hesitate to deliver even the most extreme legislation for their base. What’s the worst that could happen? Medicare for All and paid family leave? How horrible! Beats the ICE gestapo and destruction of environmental protections.

  16. First politician who says “I will push them off the scaffold and interrupt all TV programming so that it is the only option for all the American people to watch” gets my vote.

  17. In order for that to happen we have to vote in the primaries for a real fucking candidate, not just the milquetoast piece of shit that everyone tells us has the best chance to win.

    We need the next Dem president to be an atheist whose loyalty is to the constitution not the damn Bible. We need a bad ass who’s not afraid to step on toes of the rich and powerful. And someone who will take definitive steps to ensure another asshat like Trump ever gets to do the horrible things he’s done.

  19. whitemiketyson on

    I wish Bernie wasn’t as old as he is. We need someone like him but 30 years younger.

    USA refused to finish its Trump antibiotics, so now we’ve got to amputate a whole party or die from the infection.

    If we ever see a dem president again they will have to come to terms with the “healing” has to happen after the operation

  21. I genuinely want the next democratic president to overturn everything trump has done remove his ss and issue arrest warrants for his entire admin i want them arrested

  22. youjustdontgetitdoya on

    “It votes for Shapiro or it gets the Trump again.” – Dems getting ready to profit from abuse

  23. For once in my life I would love to see a Democratic Party who treats the other party just like that party treats democrats. A threat to America.

  24. Democrats are only ruthless against working class progressives. Look how weak they are against the pedo billionaires.

  25. Crazy_Sniffable on

    I’d love an aggressive leftist, preferably a Democratic Socialist.

    But my hope is that whoever the fuck it is people show up and vote for them. I don’t want hear any bullshit about how they’re not ideologically pure because they don’t align on a major issue, minor issue, or niche issue.

    “But <my biggest concern>!”

    I know, fuck you, Trump and Republicans made it worse not better.

    “I can’t in good conscience-”

    I know, fuck you, Trump and Republicans are even goddamned worse, though, and yes, it’s your fault for not voting for Harris or Clinton.

    In the primary, vote for the greatest good.

    In the main, vote against the worst evil.

  26. throwawaythepoopies on

    The next democratic president better treat their administration as the rebuilding of democratic bullworks and force legislation through that cuts the fucking balls off of the executive branch.

  27. I would advocate for the next democrat president to immediately cut federal funding to red states and let them spend 3 years suing to get it back.
