Re: Current Events...
Be fairly difficult for any Republican to win with a GOP President who's approvals are in the toilet in the White House. Rubio will have an especially hard time separating himself from Trump because he was SOS when the decision to attack Iran was made.
As far as the Dem nomination goes, southern black voters tend to determine the nominee, so Kamala can't be counted out. She is still very popular in the AA community, and those southern states have massive delegate hauls. However, 2026 was the best Democrats have done with southern whites in recent memory, so maybe the 2028 primary electorate will be slightly different.
Re: Current Events...
It's unfortunate that Kasich is so old. The GOP needs a normal, intelligent politician to try and bring us back to something resembling normalcy.
Politics needs to get boring again so the masses aren't using it for entertainment and culture war trench warfare.
His first term didn’t seem that bad because there were adults who basically stopped him from his worst impulses.
Mattis literally saved us in his first term. He wanted to strike Venezuela, Iran, and God knows who else but Mattis shit canned the idea every single time. I forgot which one, but Trump was telling Mattis how he wanted to bomb them, Mattis said "We're not doing that..", and hung up the phone.
None of his current sycophants now have the balls to do that.
As you guys said...yhe adults surrounding him made him appear more competent than he was.
Notice he got destroyed so badly he didn’t even raise the election fraud bullshit he likes to parrot.
He's now doing this but even he doesn't believe it.
It's just culture war bullshit...a distraction.
Just curious…what would any of you want of substance moving forward? I’ve been so conditioned to expect nothing. And i don’t see the Dems seizing on this opportunity. But if they could, then what?
For starters...
Ditch the massive tax cuts for billionaires/corporations
Trump is gutting food regulations to the point our food supply isn't even safe. Fix this NOW.
Start regulating the crypto shit. Trump and his goons are exploiting this.
Until they start tackling these, t's all just surface level bullshit.
Good to see you again SLC.

She was polling around 1% in the 2020 primaries before Biden chose her as Vice President.
She's unelectable...
If the DNC wants the GOP to get the presidency in 2028, all they have to do is choose her as the nominee.

Rubio should crush all of those candidates unless there is a strong pull towards change for change sake.
Marco won't be able to wash the trump stink off him imo. I'm sure he'll be gone soon and then getting his presidential run ready. He's got a better chance than Vance though, but not by much.
Not that I want to talk much about 2028, but trump will continue to be the gift that keeps giving for the Dems. Either for the next 2 years or until he is impeached (which he should be.)

Yeah , Harris isn’t even an option . She only got selected in 2024. I don’t know why she’s even brought up. The nominee will be a white guy (BOTH parties) who not far whatever in either direction .
Ossoff, Kelly ,I don’t know much about Newspm (you’d have way more insight into him) seem way better bets than AOC or Harris. Maybe Josh Shapiro since he’s not tainted anything in DC at all.
The GOP is easier anyone that wasn’t remotely connected to Trump. You served in his admin , out. Bye Vance and Rubio. Served in the congress and supported him . Bye. If you supported him openly as a state GOV (Desantis) see ya. That leaves the governors or senators that got elected this cycles . I have zero idea who that would be. But if you supported Trump , you are getting completely blasted with it .
