Second ('Third') Trump Presidency Thread

[nsacpi]

If D were smart with their nomination, they’d go with a moderate governor actually producing acceptable results (including Shapiro).

If R were smart with their nomination, they’d go outside this increasingly unpopular administration.

There are plenty of options that tick off those boxes. It would be good for the country if this happened.

Really ? Name a few

 

[nsacpi]

Among sitting Democratic governors: Shapiro, Beshear, Polis, Stein. Cooper is a recent former governor currently running for the Senate.

Republicans who are not part of this administration: DeSantis, Kemp, Haley (was in the first administration but has parted ways with Trump), Youngkin

Because the party of tolerance is so intolerant, most of those are not viable

And yet you still voted Kamala.......

A woman who either purposely or indirectly thwarted the election process to be put at the top of the Dem ticket without garnering a single vote. So much character.

And trust for Presidency..... Have you seen her interviews? She is one of the worst politicians under pressure I've personally ever seen.

That doesn't mean you should have voted Trump. But don't sit here and talk about character and trust as a reason why Kamala was your best choice.

I don’t know what to tell you. Harris was a bad candidate, but I could stomach voting for her. I didn’t see the ticket shenanigans as her doing and thought we’d ultimately have a reasonably fine 4 years if she had won.

Vance’s problem is he has the personality of a wet paper bag. Rubio should be the way the R’s go. I thought in the betting markets Vance’s probabilities were already slipping pretty steadily

Yeah, Vance is plenty smart enough but he comes across as smarmy and condescending in a political environment where only Donald Trump can somehow get away with that.

Shapiro or Bashear would be home runs I think.
