I really hope you're right... This is usually a disaster, but in 2024 who fucking knows

I nominate Pete Buttigieg (however tf you spell his name). Dude is an amazing speaker.

I assume they think he's too young, and at best would be a VP for Harris right now

He is TOO GAY for the USA

Kamala Harris is BLACK and FEMALE... you can do 1 of those right now, not both... but Buttagieg being gay is not gonna fly in God's country, probably even less so than being a black female lol

Country is a fuckin mindset mess.

Anyone dumb enough not to vote for him because of that is going to vote for Trump anyway... If anything, he actually is too young to run. Younger than I am! Maybe next term

It'll most likely be Harris; I assume they won't want to delay this any more than they have to.

Far right grifters like Elon are already freaking out

Too young? Pete Buttigieg is 2 years older than JD Vance ('82 vs '84). If anything the current candidates make everyone look that way.

I thought Kamala was a "youthful" pick but she's going to be 60 this year. FFS!

For the dems it's the issues and not who ever is on the top of the ticket thats going to get them the win.

They just have to keep talking about Abortion, project 2025, student loans, Ukraine, the supreme court, and marijuana legalization. Just hammer those issues into everyone's heads.

Let's see what the top Dems who pushed Biden out of the race think is a winning combo. I guess Harris has to pick a VP candidate for her ticket. I wonder if there will be anyone else who wants to run for the Dem nominee. I still think:
Pres - Hakeen Jefferies & VP - Gretchen Whitmer (Michigan Governor) would be a strong combination.

He wouldn't be too young IMO, but I am thinking of the party itself. He would be the youngest president since 1901 lol

Kennedy and Clinton were around that age though, and very popular, so maybe

VP maybe. I just want to see him cook people in debates. Dangerous VP though because I bet he'd be more popular than Harris, once people got to hear him talk.

Main key for the Dems is probably to have someone the entire party supports. That means sticking closer to center than many young supporters might want to. Maybe next time... Bernie, never. Sorry

The world is fucked. Good luck everyone else.

Biden wasn’t a good choice but at least there was a sliver of hope. Now it’s guaranteed this orange retard will get into office. That means more racism towards Chinese people, no support for nato, Ukraine war is fucked, economy is gonna tank as US reverts more towards isolationism and we will all be left high and dry

Might have to take a page out of he-haw’s book and get the fuck outta here.

Agreed. I feel like they need to save the gay presidential candidate hand for another time, maybe in 10 years or so, pete will have his day.

Was listening to some political commentary today, and there was one particularly important piece of info that (IMO) pretty much guarantees Harris as the Dems' presidential candidate -- because her name was already on the Biden-Harris ticket, she is the only person entitled to continue tapping into the campaign funding war chest that is already there. If she isn't on the campaign ballot, there would likely be some sort of legal difficulties for the Dems to continue accessing those existing funds. And it wouldn't make sense for her to just remain as the VP again and have someone else be the presidential candidate.

From the chances of winning aspect, I still think Harris is a mistake. But from the financial viability and (national) name recognition aspect, she is almost like the only sensible choice.

I still think Trump is gonna win, but I sure hope Harris and whoever will still somehow manage to pull a win out of their a$$es.

God bless America (and the RoW too)

If this is your opinion, the right wing grifters disagree. They're fucking panicking right now, it's pretty funny.

I didn't think she'd do great either, but her poor performances in debates were against other Democrats, who she mostly agreed with. On the contrary, she seems like a pretty appropriate candidate, being a former prosecutor against the impeached felon sex predator pedophile.

Ughhh i was talking to the wife that if it all goes to shit maybe we’ll move to Hong Kong. She’s already established there, I can pretty easily find a job at the port, and it’s close to everything we like.

I mean technically it’s China so there’s a possibility that they’ll come in and steal all our shit but it’s only a possibility….

I wonder how bad the commute is from Stanley to the port.
