I’ve just read a roundup of Joe Bidens presser in Hanoi. I’ve got to tune in to more of them, it’s like stopping to look at a traffic accident. WTF…some meth might at least keep him awake.
Your 2024 Presidential Election Thread
- Thread starter Gunz
- Start date
We are headed for another Trump/Somebody - Harris/Vegetable election. Biden will definitely not make it through another 4 years. We are looking at a terminal president here. He's 1 step away from long term care. If he wins, we know we're really looking at Harris.
Trump will get the nomination unless they actually get a conviction on something, hell maybe he will get nominated anyway.
Real Clear politics had Marco Rubio as a favorite against Hitlery in 2016. I would have liked to see that one. Trump wins and was never given much of lead in the run up, I always remember him being a couple to a few points behind. Things are a little different now, I don't think Trump has enough supporters to counteract the haters.
This shit is bananas.

This right here is it.It's all about ego now.
The thing is, there are several other Republican candidates that would bring many of the same policies to the table but do so with some tact and without all the additional baggage that comes with Trump. Why not just go that direction?

Because the GOP's mouth is solidly around Trump's dick for whatever reason(s).
One problem I have with Trump is we've made him a God-King, this cult of personality that has sprung up around Trump. I don't know that the GOP can win with Trump and the other candidates are undercooked calzones.
Biden 2024 is FDR 1944. If Biden wins, the VP is your next president, so his running mate matters to all of us.
The next presidential election will be
^Trump is ahead by 30+ points in front of all the R candidates. Desantis is a distant 2nd place.
Halley wins head to head vs the President by 5-6+ in a lot of head to head polls. Shes the only R that does. WTF people? Shes last place in the R nominee field...

I really don't buy the polling nonsense. They've only proven to be a crapshoot for quite a while now.
Polls guessed right last time. Had the Old Man ahead a couple points. Had a huge voter turnout in the wee hours of the morning to cross that line.

They completely missed on Clinton/Trump. They've missed many state races.
Selection of candidates and policies based on polling is a poor way to govern.
But more importantly, why even consider putting a candidate with so much shit tied to him on the ballot (talking Trump, although this also applies to Biden). There are petitions going in several states to ban him from even appearing on a ballot because of Jan 6. If even one of those states agrees, how can you possibly put the candidate on the ticket? You can't...at least not if you have even half a brain. It's a loser strategy, which is probably why the GOP will do it.

Polls are not accurate to within a few % points, however, when I see consistent 6%+ lead from Halley over what we have now, I'm just going to pick her without knowing a whole lot. A crapshoot is Trump vs a guy he already lost to, that made a record number of voters turn up.

For context to others, he was a "Presidential Professor of the Practice" at UPennwho was paid for two years to hold the position and draw assistance/influence, give talks, and hold panels at the university before he was put on unpaid leave after stepping away to campaign.
He shouldn't stretch his technical title to flat-out lie about what he did and how long he didn't do it.
Bad Biden, bad!

The context I provided for where he could even attempt to try and claim that didn't challenge that, as noted in my post.
