2024 Presidential Election Thread - Let's keep the party going.

Not to get too far ahead of things, but if Harris beats Trump this year is there any doubt that Trump will be the nominee again in 2028?

Let's go one further: win or lose in 2024, Trump is the nominee in 2028.  Because if you think this SCOTUS won't find a way to work around the 22nd Amendment, you haven't been paying attention to this SCOTUS.  This election, we are trying to decide whether to elect a president, or crown a king.

He has the exact amount of charisma that one would expect from an amorphous blob of underflavored vanilla pudding that he is.  He is good at capturing the attention and imagination of the billionaire class, who sees a smart and malleable little bitch boy to do their bidding.  But to the MAGAsphere and the rest of the public, he has all the spice pizazz of a glass of tepid tapwater.  Good.  Keep at it, you racist care bear motherfucker.

They can make him the candidate but he won't win. He'll be 82 and trying to convince people he can be POTUS from age 82 to 85. Good luck with that.

Hopefully, the combination-Taco Bell-and-Pizza Hut will have "solved" this problem for us by then.

I'm just not sure trying to Hillary her is going to work this time.  She doesn't have 20 years of political and legal baggage, an unlikeable personality, and an arrogant campaign that ignored all of the important swing states and let Trump barnstorm through them in order to thread the needle on election day.

She's not going to ignore the Blue Wall states.  She's basically just going to replicate the Biden 2020 campaign - Milwaukee, Atlanta, Detroit, Philly, Phoenix, Vegas, and maybe throw in North Carolina. 

She is also being handed an enormous political war chest and all the time in the world to campaign as a result of having one of the cushiest jobs in US politics (the VP).

She's not going to ignore the Blue Wall states.  She's basically just going to replicate the Biden 2020 campaign - Milwaukee, Atlanta, Detroit, Philly, Phoenix, Vegas, and maybe throw in North Carolina. 

Note to Harris.  Change your password and enable 2-factor authentication.

Donald Trump is going to live to be 105.  And he will maintain his current "lucidity" (such as it is) for another 10 years.

Because this fucking timeline, man.

This is Trump's party for the next 10-20 years.  There is no party, only Trump.

• Democratic voters are more likely than Republicans (27% to 24%) to say they’re “much more motivated” to participate in the political process this election season following Biden’s decision, mirroring the gap between Biden’s and Trump’s respective 2020 supporters (26% to 23%).

I love that Vance probably thought he was a piece of misswallowed Big Mac away from POTUS a few days ago. Now he's looking like a dumbass on the campaign trail and is a failed election away from hopefully dashing any hopes of sniffing the oval office in any capacity.

A bit unrelated but remember a viral tweet a few years ago that said (roughly) Republicans lose elections because they are weirdos with terrible ideas, but can't seem to find it.  Anyone know what I'm talking about?

Jr. will be jacking off homeless people on onlyfans to pay for his blow about 2 weeks after daddy strokes out. nobody gives a solitary fuck about that coked up dipshit. 

[Js1 85,501]

Quote

Radio host Charlamagne tha God said Monday he would “absolutely” endorse Vice President Harris for the White House after previously not endorsing President Biden.

CNN’s Jake Tapper pressed Charlamagne on “The Lead” about whether he would endorse Harris after previously saying that both Biden and former President Trump were “trash.” The radio host noted that he endorsed Harris during the 2020 Democratic primary and that he would “absolutely” support her in the race now.

Yeah.  None of the Trump kids have daddy's magic.  Not even close.  Trump plays the hits.  His kids are the equivalent of "and now, a tune from our new album."  That's when the audience starts looking at their phones/goes to take a leak/gets a fresh beer.

Ivanka is the one we've got to watch out for. Thin veneer of civility, and married to an evil bastard. I think she's the only one in that freak show that could get through a campaign without doing lines off the speaker dais or accidently shooting his dick off trying to look tough with a gun.

As noted above, they've lost the storyline.  They have latched onto a psychotic, but somehow charismatic, personality.  Sure, there are things the billionaire class (Harlan Crow) want, but in terms of actual public-facing party messaging....there's nobody who can do what Trump does, and the party desperately needs people as passionate and stupid as Trump supporters to be motivated and vote.  There's nobody out there who can do what he does.  Hate him all you want, but he's a savant who knows how to play that base like a fiddle.  And there's nobody else who even comes close.

I think people need to realize that Trump is the glue holding the GOP together because otherwise, it's a mess. The "civil war" within the party is only being held back by Trump. It's purely a cult of his personality.

I didn't want Biden to drop out, but now I'm glad he did because so far the Democrats have handled the aftermath perfectly. Moreover, they have moved to a new generation with Kamala leading the charge. They are moving on, while the GOP is stuck in the mud.

Tammy Baldwin will campaign with Kamala in Wisconsin this week. She did not do the same for Biden post-debate 

[Hank Kingsley 21,027]

A psychic medium who claims they can communicate to Dead Trump has a better chance of winning a future election than a family member or any current GOP politician.

But he just told us that the debate should be on Fox News because ABC isn't fair to him. Now Fox News isn't fair to him.

And he is going to hate JD Vance in a very short time. And he'll hate him even more because Donald Jr picked Vance for him.
