President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

Because she lost to Trump by less than the others?

 

Bit surprising, but Roy Cooper is out as a VP candidate.

 

Assuming he knows he’s out of the running.
I’m pulling for Kelly.

 

It’ll be Walz. He’s good at it.

Sunday T and a ball cap and lotsa backyard zingers.

 

If there’s a path forward, I don’t see it.

One of the reasons we’re in this position is because of the constant escalation Fox News/Talk Radio demands.
“If you thought the last outrage was bad, wait until you see this next thing.”

Nothing - none of the scandals or so called crimes - ever turn out, so they just keep doubling the estimated depth of the conspiracy. …. Because just coming out and saying, “we’ve been purposefully misleading you for the last 25 years for the sake of money and power” isn’t going to happen.

So yeah … we’re truly fucked.

 

This "weird" thing seems to be a catchphrase and is picking up. Makes me think Walz is the pick. He started it, right?

 

I'm a little bummed, but not surprised. I've always heard that he isn't really interested in going to DC - he's had plenty of opportunities - but maybe he already knows he's out.

Before Biden dropped out, I thought I could see Cooper as a cabinet secretary in his second term. Something that lets him get home pretty regularly. I could still see that with Harris.

He's got young grandkids, too, and might just be ready to step back altogether.

 

Dems haven't nominated a (current) governor for VP since.....1924
