    If it weren’t for covid, Joe Biden would have lost in 2020.

    Newsome is younger yes. But he carries the same attitude towards policy as Joe Biden. And he won’t be running against Trump who is also old. He’ll be running against somebody like JD Vance who is in the same age bracket (or younger I’m not even sure how old that couch fucker is).

      If it weren’t for covid, Joe Biden would have lost in 2020.

      And even then, he had to promise a bunch of shit he never intended to do in order to get the left on board.

      Which he then (surprise!) didn’t do, which killed the party’s credibility.

      I personally think there’s going to be at least an attempt at a palace coup by Ron DeSantis once Trump is gone. He’s getting older, and he’s ambitious. I’m pretty sure he’ll beat Vance if he gets any momentum.

        Florida might like Ron DeSantis. But literally everybody else in the entire country fucking hates that asshole.

        Eh I feel like he’s a broken reed at this point. Abbott is a much stronger challenger but then again i doubt he’d be able to win nationally.
