Just a few I would share.
Agree or disagree is fine
Nikki Haley's only function 'in the race' is if Donald Trump becomes unable to run or serve. She's literally there waiting (hoping) for that to happen.
The main focus of Biden's 3 years in office was 'Get Donald Trump out of the race'

We’re gonna wind up with Trump again and it’s going to be an even bigger circus than last time. The Dems couldn’t have helped him more than they have.

If these two complete dumb asses are the only two people that can be candidates, this country is really fucked.

She's literally there waiting (hoping) for that to happen. The main focus of Biden's 3 years in office was 'Get Donald Trump out of the race' I think that everyone on the Republican side, with the possible exception of Ramaswarthy, had someone from the donor class whisper in their ear, "They're going to force Trump off the ballot via lawfare. Throw your hat in the ring!" And that may still wind up being the case, but it's getting too late in the day for the others to continue dumping money into ads. I'm not sure I understand why Nimarata persists, a Hail Mary on the part of the neocons, I suppose. Meanwhile, assholes must really be puckering on the Dem side. Biden's dementia issues become worse by the day, and Kamala is possible the stupidest human being to ever occupy the vice-Presidency. Somewhere Dan Quayle smirks to himself. But they are running out of time to stick Gavin Newsome or someone else on the ticket. This summer's conventions could get interesting. Either way, the ruling class has been very, very vocal about the fact that they're not going to allow Trump to become President again. If they cannot tie him up in the courts I still believe they'll fortify the election once again, and given current polls they may have to make it even more obvious than 2020. This November may prove to be the proverbial "interesting times".

The Dems will spend four years crying that Trump is Satan. Then on the eve of the next election, will realize they have zero viable candidates to run for President. "We forgot!" they will lament, calling Michelle Obama if they can find her cell number...
Mitch McConnell will spend four years being used as a prop for a variety of Republican agenda-ists, since he won't be able to think or do anything for himself after his seventeenth stroke. I figure he's about five in now.
The rest of the world will spend four years laughing and being sad that the USA has sunk to such a ridiculous level in it's politics that it can't be taken seriously, even though they have more power than anyone and should be taken extra seriously.
Youse are all fucked. At least in Canada, Justin will be gone next election and we can take a break from hating our PM...for about 18 months, when the bloom will come off the rose. (Pierre Pollivere is a greasy weasel but he's better than Justin right now. The lampost outside my window is better than Justin right now).

He's had that for YEARS. His complete personality change a decade ago is proof of that. His vocabulary is basically down to 10 words now. He was always able to play it off because he's usually so bombastic and shouty, but it's absolutely getting worse now.

As sad as it is, it’s truly scary that your next election is gonna be two dementia patients squaring off.
Like, fuck…

Trump will spend his four years finding a way to be allowed to serve a third term. We'd have to repeal the 22nd Amendment. Won't happen. No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once.

This is the guy who “jokes” without humor at wanting to be a dictator.

This is the guy who “jokes” without humor at wanting to be a dictator. It would be violating Article II of the Constitution as well as 2 US Code 7, which codifies the time and date of the general election, and 3 US Code 7, which codifies the time and date of the Electoral College meeting. Just my opinion, but it would be career suicide for a judge to allow that. The Appellate Court would never allow that and the Supreme Court probably wouldn't hear it.

No one is saying it would necessarily be allowed, but he will try. And it’s not career suicide with 50% of the population if you murder a liberal in broad daylight, so I don’t see how this would be.

"A lot of people are saying that they'd like me to be President for another four years. Big men, strong men, with tears in their eyes. Mr. President, we need you to run again. I told them we're looking at it."
