If the Democrats were wise they would choose the next candidate now in order to get the party going in a specific direction, just like the Republicans have done unofficially from 2020 to 2024
I’m talking about officially doing their primary right now. Look at how it works in a parliamentary system, if a party loses its leader there’s an official interim leader taking their place until a new one is selected and that leader/interim leader is officially the one choosing in what direction the party is going. The party doesn’t spend 3 years leaderless leaving the other elected officials do whatever they want.

As though they haven’t already chosen both the person and the direction. It’s newsom and rightward, respectively.

Yeah, they’re not gonna do that. Not in public, at least.
As a Democrat, no one has ever accused my party of being smart.
perhaps, but democrats are held to a higher standard
any tiny misstep - or even correct step that the republicans figure out how to spin - over the next few years would poison the waters
sorta sounds like they needed to fix that problem
