With much of the public’s attention on the looming presidential election and high-stakes jockeying over who will take on Donald Trump in November…
What the fuck is with all of these articles suggesting that there is a real power battle over who will run against Trump at this point? That ship sailed at least six months ago. There isn’t nearly enough time to build up a new candidate. If you don’t want Trump to become king, get behind the onky other choice we truly have.
Ugh, Trump is going to win because democrats can’t hold their fucking noses and vote for their onky other choice.
I know nothing about Josh Shapiro, Michelle Obama has stated that she doesn’t want the job, I also know very little about Gretchen Whitmer, and Gavin Newsom is a shit head.
I say this as someone who follows politics more than average. If I don’t know much more than the fact that three of the four people you mentioned are governors and the other is a former first lady with no political aspirations, what do you think the general public knows?
