    Jill Biden could make or break President Biden's campaign. She says she's all in.

    inb4 they nominate Jill Biden instead. She seems to be the one controlling him half the time anyway.

      That would be the wrong replacement Biden. We all know Hunter is the only logical choice.

      I understand if she wants to be his caregiver. I get it. I would do it for a spouse if I was married to them for decades.

      She doesn't need to be our caregiver, however.

    Kamala Harris could win this election

    This is just about the only thing I am certain will not happen. Like, Biden would need to die between beating Trump and actually winning the electoral college. That itself is unlikely because it is predicated upon Biden not only surviving to November, but also beating Trump. But even if Biden died during this particular window, the electors are not going to just settle on Kamala Harris lmao

      It would be peak American if our first woman president was universally hated and only got elected because a stubborn white man refuses to step down and dies in office.

        It's unlikely Kamala Harris will ever be elected president, she's not electable as shown by her primary performance where she dropped out after polls showed her losing to Andrew Yang (holy shit that must've stung) in her home state where she was the sitting senator.

        But at the same time I don't think Biden has another four years left, and Trump has plenty of time left to fuck up his own campaign. So in the end, this woman is probably gonna be the president at some point if Biden eeks out a win

    They're definitely looking for somebody new. A new somebody, or, Newsom, if you will.

    I thought Joanna would be an uncontroversial choice, but it sounds like there is a growing consensus to run her second cousin Gavin instead.

    Ngl if someone organizes a protest for the Dem convention in Chicago I would totally go.

    I hate being the person who wants to organize but doesn't do shit. Thing is, I have no experience organizing anything. Look at my spice rack in my kitchen. It's a disaster.

    Fr though I want to crash that convention.

      Various groups are pretty open on how they're going to protest it.

      I don't think I care enough who the fuck is president or the democratic nominee or whatever tbh. The only part that evokes any feeling of care in me is just that they think I (and the American people) are morons who should accept this sorry state of affairs if I was actually a normie citizen who cared about this kind of thing.

    how delightfully American would it be if we got our first woman president right before the collapse not by election, but because a man died and left her in charge on a technicality

    President Biden, our analysts have found that you have significant support down in Dallas. Perhaps we should schedule a trip there to rally them?
