If we can’t trust the Arab News who can we trust?
In the last few days Vance has gone from 40/1 to 15/1 to 9/1.
The lack of an obvious successor is disappointing.
Traitor Joe has to "Call a lid" at 8:30 in the morning, he has "energy" to flag?
This is the one thing I just can’t understand. Biden is keeping Kamala as his VP and I just can’t imagine how anyone can possibly think that woman is competent to fill the role of president. Even the Dems rejected her in the primaries, she got almost no support, yet now they think it’s ok for her to remain on the ticket when there’s an excellent chance Biden won’t finish his term if elected? We’d become the laughingstock of the world with her at the helm. It would be a literal nightmare. For some reason I expected more Dems to support Kennedy for that reason, but the msm has successfully portrayed Kennedy as a kook so I guess most of them are sticking with Biden.
J.D. Vance? You have to be kidding.
How do they remove her? You think that every group will be cool with it, if they try to remove the first woman, and allegedly black VP?
The greatest thing in Trump’s and Biden’s favor is there are no other good candidates out there.
Between age and term limits, we’ll get a Trump/Biden-free presidential election in 2028.
Why would good people want to get involved in politics these days, when they have it good in the private sector?
The Founding Fathers were fed up. Otherwise, they wouldn't have gotten involved with politics.
Maybe. But there will probably only be a viable Democrat running in 2028.
No joke.
He is in fr 10th choice to 4th choice.
Rubio has also come in quite a bit lately too.
Scott 7/2
Gabbard 6/1
Noem 8/1
Vance 9/1
Rubio 11/1
The top five in the betting at the moment.
Trump got fed up.
Just thinking out loud. Maybe they know the chances of Biden being re-elected are slim (zero in a fair election) and they don't want to use up another candidate in a near sure-loss situation and save that candidate for 2028.
Exactly.
I think few blacks support her as well but I agree it would be very tricky trying to get rid of her. Maybe they will force Sotomayor to retire and shove Kamala on the Supreme Court but that would be just about as bad as having her become president. Hopefully people will begin to realize that Biden is unlikely to finish his term and that she would be thrust into the presidency. That should be sufficient to scare enough people so that they will think twice before voting for Biden.
Probably looking beyond the election and to the end of the USA
(and possibly civilization)
*the office has assumed more power and resources in recent decades, with recent vice presidents such as BIDEN, Dick Cheney, and Al Gore ranking among the most influential in US history.*
Biden most influential? Ya lost me there.
“Many voters are growing disenchanted with, and are certainly not enthused, by the two main candidates, Joe Biden and Donald Trump, who are 81 and 77 years old, respectively. “
_________________________________________________________
They are not that disenchanted the nominees, because they all had the opportunity to nominate someone else in the primaries. When I hear someone whine about not liking the candidates, I always follow up with “Who did you vote for in the primary? Why?” 90% of the time they are identified as a person with Ostrich Syndrome who is too busy taking their kids to lacrosse rather than keep abreast of political issues. I used to go easier on these types of people, because I thought about how busy people’s lives can get. But then I realized as I got older that representative government is only viable when you have a broad awareness and participation of the populace. When that doesn’t exist, it’s no better than other more authoritarian forms of government. Hell, it simply devolves into a quietly authoritarian government.
