I was sure it was going to be professional genocide ghoul Shapiro. Color me surprised.

    Yeah that's exactly why I was sure they would pick him. Astonishing to see the Dems not go with the worst, dumbest option available to try to appeal to the worst people in the country.

      It's so funny that they are going to handily beat trump by simply not making the exact worst decision possible at every turn (like second or third worst maybe idk).

      Such a contrast from picking Clinton and Biden twice.

        He's an astonishingly bad and unpopular candidate, and losing to him once (plus almost losing again) required Mission Impossible levels of threading the bad planning and performance needles. It would be super funny if they just blew him out of the water by making a few choices that weren't the worst available options and calling him weird a few times.

          It'll be super funny if the election map ends up looking like Reagan's, except blue.

            Especially if it’s the same congressionally and they have to innovate new ways of obstructing their totally progressive goals.

            I'm trying to imagine Clinton's reaction of this happened and it's absolutely hilarious. Just makes my day lol.
