Joe makes a great point that helped everything fit into place for me. Bernie Sanders was my choice for president in 2016. I was angry and saying 'I want my country back' before the Tea Party was. I guess that makes me a Populist. It explains to me very clearly why someone like Trump could have captured so many otherwise thoughtful or reasonable people. Because he brings absolutely nothing else to the table-for us. It's all for him and he doesn't even try to hide it anymore.

It is about time I did rank choice voting, a person needs fifty percent, though. Zoran will as Governor Cuomo, did concede the race. It is time for the American 🇺🇸 people to let your party know we are through with establishment politics. That it is time to move forward, and elect the candidate of your country. Country over politics or party everyone.

This is all I have to say about all this crap…if the climate crisis is not taken seriously none of this matters!! We only have one home and we are destroying it, yes us humans. Greed, arrogance and entitlement thinking that we are entitled to trash, poison and kill whatever we want…Mother Nature is pissed off and sending warning shots everyday, PAY ATTENTION!!🤬🌎🐾🌲

Yes, this Democratic Party is having very much a tea party moment. So let’s have a lot of tea, and have a beautiful day.

I am an Independent who leans Democrat and would never vote for the POS corrupt Trump or any Republican at this point. But I am not as left as the socialist Democrats. So who will represent moderate Democrats? Maybe we need a socialist government for a short time to correct the wealth imbalance???

Yes- Cuomo is one of the worst candidates the Dems could have sponsored - I wouldn’t vote for him. I’m a post Republican as well and this should be a huge wake up call for Dems if we are to win in the midterms and 2028.

JOE, I'm so proud you are now a Democrat.. You bring a necessary voice to the Dem party. I really like that you say where you are in the Dem spectrum, pointing out that we need a range of "flavors" in the ice cream store! No one wants only one option or just one flavor, though some do have their favorites. But it's ok to be unique and not cookie cutter! We need independent thinkers who can not only make up their minds, but who can also be open to changing their minds - because THEY'RE NOT LOCKED INTO AN IDEOLOGY.
