USA 2024 US Presidential Election: Trump vs Harris

[Chief]

 

[Sqotty from office works]

Can Barack run as VP?

NO

 

[faible]

NO

Sad given he's been running the country as the deep state or some such since 2009.

Also the 30000 volunteers joining

Yep - again, no matter your views, Biden dropping out has energised the race. The question now - as it will be until November - is whether it's enough.

In terms of political strategy, this was optimum. Still four months left (so enough time, but cutting it close) but took away the oxygen from the assassination attempt and Republican convention. It is up to the Democrats to see if they want an open convention which could potentially wipe out all the gains made from Biden stepping away because disunity is death for a political party. They need their senior figures like Obama, Clintons etc to endorse Harris imo if they want to win.

Has Trump still not contacted the family? I know Biden tried to get in contact but apparently, the wife refused to talk to the sitting POTUS because her husband was such a staunch Republican - real wtf moment there.

Biden called her on the day. Trump called 5 days later because he wanted to borrow his fireman outfit to use as a prop.

 

[BigTacoBandit]

NO

Why not?

haha - "suit kind of the same type of colour and necklace kind of similar!"

The vibe

It's the vibe, the law, Mabo, the constitution.

The constitution actually is not clear on this. Clear two term limit for President but silent on VP. Would no doubt end up before SCOTUS anyway.

trump may go in 2028 as vp, and the rep pres if elected may quit giving him presidency for the 3rd time

scotus in its current form would no doubt allow it

Anyone who still thinks CNN is biased towards the Democrats just missed what I watched. They talked about all Harris's failings: ran a poor campaign for the Senate and only because her opponent was worse did she win; her campaign for President was so poor pulled out of the race early; the last two days count for nothing if she can't debate Trump etc etc.

Very little about the numbers who have endorsed her nor the public reaction.

They also interviewed Beshear who said a great line about Vance. "He has no convictions however his boss does have 34"

Also heard that RFK wanted to make a deal with Trump that he will pull out of election and endorse Trump but wants a job in his administration in Health.

Game on. What appeared to be a boring Presidential election has now livened up.

I get that being a document from the 1700s the US constitution has a lot of room for interpretation but how is it that nearly 200 years later they couldn't stress test an amendment.

 

[Cyber_punk]

While he's a terrible president and leader, he's an amazing con man gotta give him that.

Where does he rank in history for amount of marks conned?

It's not just his political run either. Those "John Miller/ John Baron" recordings to this day are hilarious.

Rumour rife on the internet that Biden is either seriously ill, in a coma, near death or already dead.

Maybe because we have never had a former president encourage his supporters want to hang his vice president

And forensics on the time stamp of the proof, if a picture.
Or filmed alongside the Lotto results as proof that it was not recorded.

Remembering John Barron, Donald Trump’s ‘Spokesman’ Alter Ego

The fictitious Trump executive was the beginning of Trump's mastery of media manipulation.

Somehow I'd missed this. Hilarious.

They will go "open" but it's already over, all the big players have lined up behind Kamala.

And still used a jacket with the name spelt wrong.

Like trump playing golf next day spread by republicans a furphy

I'd be astounded if VP Harris doesn't become POTUS well before the election.
More likely in the next week from the sound of things.
