2024 Presidential Election Thread

This is remarkable.

Good hell. The ticket is doomed.

The DNC and Biden probably wait until after Super Tuesday before announcing he's stepping aside. Super Tuesday will solidify Trump as the GOP nominee and that is who the Dems want to face.

I would like to dream of what can be, unburdened by what the current prospective party tickets are.

We get it you think she was a DEI woke choice.

Please give us a list of 3 viable candidates that would have delivered votes in WI, MI and GA and arguably AZ.

I don’t know what the democrats do now. Biden can’t escape out of this because he doesn’t have the chops to politic himself out of the grave. Fortunately they have an impressive bench, I think Polis, Shapiro or Whitmer could all win and govern as center left normies. I was a Pete delegate and am a huge fan but frankly he’s still a gay dude.

Is it even possible at this time to open up and have a legitimate race?

Kamala was a terrible VP choice and that is beyond debate. The fact that virtually nobody in the democratic party is pushing for her to be the candidate when Biden looks like an escapee from the memory care unit at the rest home is all the evidence you need.

Yeah, the problem is how do you build the momentum required for a successful campaign with such a late start? Ugh...

Polis would be awesome. Would probably be the most conservative president of this century. Definitely the most intelligent.

The only answer is that whoever is running, is running against Donald Trump. I literally would vote for a wooden stick than the orange asshole.

That aside...the only other Democrat with any momentum or name recognition right now is Gavin Newsome. I'm a democrat, and I hate him. So, maybe he would be just what we need.

So all the states who had voted can't vote for a replacement ? Who exactly could jump in and get a majority ?

Please name me 1 viable VP pick that moves the base of the party like her in 2020?

Who is the other black, WOC that had a national profile in 2020?

And we’ve already went over why Biden made that deal.

This is a weird dodge. Not even worth debating.

I'm not sure. Does the DNC still have the super delegate system it did in 2016?

This article explains the scenario we are discussing:

tl;dr - at this point it would have to be decided on the convention floor

I'll start with one.

How about Gretchen Witmer?

That's got to help Michigan, no?

[beefytee]

Amy Klobuchar probably helps the Midwest as well.

So we are up to 2, just off the top of my head.

Say what you will about shady back room convention deals, at least they didn’t give us consecutive Trump/Biden elections.
