What do you propose as an alternative? I liked Yang because he did the math and saw that without hydroelectric and nuclear power we will not get off of fossil fuels. We have people like Bernie and Warren that want to close all the nuclear power plants and tear down all the dams. If you want to see an economic and environmental disaster then getting rid of nuclear and hydro power would do that.

I did see Warren concede that we should keep existing nuclear power plants open and this simply destroys her argument against nuclear power. If nuclear power is not safe then we should be closing them all down as soon as possible. If there is a problem with the disposal of the radioactive waste then the longer they run the more waste gets produced. If this is a matter of solar and wind being cheaper than nuclear power then we should close them down for cost reasons alone.

Yang didn't buy into this bullshit on the "Green New Deal" which called for abandoning nuclear and hydro power, and that's one big reason I liked him in the race. With him gone who is left to bring sense to this debate on national energy policy? It looks like "Mayor Pete" might be supportive.

I'm seeing a lot of Democrats running that still think gun control is a good idea, it is not. Voters aren't screaming for gun control as most are simply neutral on it, the rest is either a very small (if perhaps quite vocal) minority or pro-RKBA. This is just a losing policy. Also a loser is abortion, and this was demonstrated in a recent rally Mayor Pete held where he was asked about where pro-life Democrats fit in the party.

The Democrats would be doing far better right now if they backed off on the loser issues and actually did what they said we should do, that is "listen to the science". Science tells us how to get off fossil fuels but they are not listening to the ecologists, economists, physicists, meteorologists, geologists, and so on. All they seem to listen to are the "climate scientists" which is just a bunch of people that self selected into thinking on one problem with one solution. That's not listening to the science if the outcome is predetermined and then going out to look for evidence to support it.

This is even assuming that things are as bad as they are claimed. Right now the environment is very clean, and the USA has been lowering it's CO2 output for years. This will not continue with the policies from many of the Democrats running for POTUS now.

I saw polling that Yang could win against Trump in the general election, with far better chances than all the others running right now. The Democrat party though is increasingly being run by socialists, and that doesn't sell well with the general public.
