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

[DixonHur 10837]

Hey, @immamac, perhaps it's time to update the thread title with a little hopium.

Joe Biden is now a President with total immunity and legal protections for official presidential actions as granted to him by the Supreme Court — and unencumbered without the electoral concerns of seeking re-election.

 

[troph 23995]

Whitmer said nah.

Collins does nothing but get run over by bullshit and conspiracy theories 

Jesus Christ. “Overturned the will of the voters” “has anyone seen Joe Biden actually sign this letter”

Collins does nothing. Worthless cunt

Gretchen is only 52.  Michigan Governors are term limited to 8 total years.  She's almost done with 6 of them.  Not my own bullshit, but there's not going to be two women on a ticket.  I don't make the rules.  So she could be an heir apparent at 60 when Kamala terms out.  Between 2026-2032, Gretchen can take on a prominent cabinet role and rise to top of ticket in 2032.  She is eligible for a federal judiciary appointment by Harris, but we rarely draft candidates directly from the bench because their stances on most issues is clearly delineated and they can't pull some "Well, I never said quite that."  (Ma'am, I'd reading straight from your concurring opinion, verbatim).  

If Harris loses though, Gretchen will be at the top of the list in 2028.

Trump says Harris is easier to beat. Yet they wanted Biden to stay in. Hmmm

Huge Whitmer fan here, but she did the right thing.

Harris is the best bet right now.  

I think it would be good to have a vote at the convention, even if only for show, but she's clearly the heavy favorite.

So, who's your favorite as a running mate?  I'm thinking Cooper makes the most sense given his experience, his race, his gender, and his age... he could be to Kamala what Biden was to Obama.

Buttigeg would offer more protection, if you know what I'm saying.

Trump is far too old to be President for four more years. Kamala has my vote.

Seriously, flip this script right fucking now. Turnabout is fair play. Just hammer them with "do we really want the oldest Day 1 President in American history?"

[Texaus 365]

Trump getting beat down by a black woman is a wet dream. But you know what also will make me happy when she wins? That Alan Lictman asshole being wrong.

When they start arguing process, they know they’re in trouble. They’ve run the past year that Biden is senile and is unfit for office. Now that is off the table.

[hobbes2702 12516]

Y’all got to stop watching CNN. It’s a full blown propaganda org now.

This times infinity

i’ve been hearing that Biden told almost no one and certainly not his cabinet before his decision.

Thinking about it more, it seems logical that the way to stay off other Democrats running for the nomination against Kamala was to spring this on everyone with his endorsement of her, and in the glow of post stepping down adulation, that might work to have folks throw their support to Kamala before people had time to mount a challenge to her,

And if Schumer and Jeffries and Pelosi had a different idea about who would be the chosen nominee, the recent heated discussions with Joe could’ve resulted in Joe not including them in his plans to better ensure a Kamala win and to make the point that he is still the man up in here and picks his successor. 

The backstory to this will be fascinating

Yea anyone saying Harris is easier to beat for Republicans is full of shit. Having Biden withdraw is the politics version of splitting queens against a 6. You’ve turned a sure W into a potential loss due to the unknowns of what’s gonna happen over the next few months.

I don’t think that’s exactly how the saying goes.

 

As a never trump former Republican I’ll say I’m gruntled by the news.  A woman President is overdue.  Even better one that breaks their brains.

It’s Shapiro. It has to be Shapiro. Anyone else is legit a mistake. Shapiro locks up the most important state in this coming election.

Trump will claim she's not the legitimate nominee and refuse to debate her.

Possible. But that won’t resonate in Pennsylvania. Which is really all that matters. Kamala is I’ll be plenty strong in all the other swings.

Never. No chance Trump takes the risk of being on stage with someone who can think on their feet. But Democrats need to call him a coward for not accepting at every opportunity.
