    I think he will be on the ballet and he will lose. God help us.

      I think this is the most likely, albeit depressing scenario. They both need to die by June.

        Granted, Trump needs to die, but why does Biden need to die?

          So he can be resurrected someday and have an immortal body like our father in heaven.

            I hope you're only talking Biden here, because if that scenario includes Trump, I think the afterlife is ripe for another war in heaven, and when that blessed day of respite happens for me, I'm going to enlist.

            • Based on Trump's physical appearance, the increasing pace of his mental / verbal lapses, I think a stroke or adderall OD is increasingly likely by the end of March, much less Election day.

              Of course, even if he dies, there's a major, major sickness in the electorate. Can you imagine the fallout from conspiracy theorists? We'd be hearing about the Biden Murder Crime Family till doomsday.

                A hard reset is what we need. Maybe if they both die, some youngster under 70 will step up in one of the parties.

                    It's crazy that as Gen X approaches retirement age it hasn't sniffed the White House and could easily get skipped for an older Millennial in the next one.

                      So, when you talk about Trump dying, you're not being literal? Interesting.

                          People who stress that Harris is next up are stupid. What could Harris possibly do that is worse than anything Trump will certainly do?

If your second point is true, and maybe it is, then it is a pretty strong indictment of the Democratic party's ability to put forth good candidates. Joe Biden wasn't incredibly compelling as a 46 year old presidential candidate. That he is now 81 and we are all like "Well, can't really think of anyone better!" is a little worrisome.
                            Yeah, Trump's the guy that will pardon his paramilitary followers for their treasonous crimes from Jan 6 and will let Putin's influence back into the Oval Office.

                            I'll take the guy with decline issues who isn't a proven sociopath over the slightly younger guy with decline issues who speaks and acts quite sociopathically.

                              You still don’t get it. That’s not the point.

                                I don't get it? You've got a gun pointed at your head, and you're worried about whether the gun is a Glock or a Sig.
