Honestly it would be so much more chill then the year-long hysterical stress-fest we participate in.

Wait nevermind I take it back let's absolutely not do this. bsky.app/profile/velo...

To save democracy, the Democratic party may resort to deploying the greatest concept of all time: a political version of the NBA In-Season Tournament

At least not asymmetrically.

omg i'd be all for this if both biden and trump had to fuck off

This is too funny. What they are calling a blitz primary is actually just a normal primary when there is no incumbant, and the last time we had one Bernie was so popular that everyone else dropped out so the Dems could get behind Biden. WTF are they going to do this time??

Oh, please, 90 days of intense chaos every four years has GOT to be better than a year of middling chaos, a year of intense chaos, and then, maybe, at best, getting a year off to get shit done before the cycle starts up again.

Agree, I like that 6 weeks from start to finish vs being campaigned to for years on end

is that true or are you just trying to avoid the 2 year process of electioneering

it's great. no time for anyone in the media to "settle on narratives" about why exactly anyone who isn't the fascists will definitely lose. they have to make it up on the fly too and don't have enough time to make it stick :)

I presume it helps when there are actual campaign finance rules in place.

it’s kinda awesome because if someone sucks too bad you don’t have to let them continue sucking until the end of their term

Yes please.

I need this. I’m so tired of doing 2+ years of an election cycle
