    His only chance is if Dems ran a historically unpopular candidate like Hillary or Biden.

    Kamala is far from perfect, but it’s not exactly a high bar to be better than trump.

      I wouldn’t call Biden historically unpopular. He won once, after all. He didn’t back out because he was unpopular, he backed out because he was not the same candidate that won in 2020.

        He won once, after all

        Against an incumbent trump… People weren’t voting for Biden, they were voting against trump.

        40 years after his first attempt at running for president.

        If the people wanted Biden as president, it would have been back in the 80s when he was at his peak. He’d have probably been a good president back then.

        Unfortunately his personality got in the way and screaming at reporters that he had a higher IQ and it didn’t matter that he plagiarized campaign speeches or his classwork in lawschool torpedoed that campaign.

        It just seems like the people who defend Biden the most, don’t know anything about him besides that he was Obama’s VP.

        He was rejected by the American public over and over again for decades. It wasn’t until the only other alternative was four more years of trump, and he just barely beat Trump by the skin of his teeth.

          Strange to see you, of all people, saying that. Biden of the '80s would have been much more corporatist and neoliberal than Biden of the 2020s, and therefore way worse despite being in his prime, age-wise.

            Saying what?

            He’d have probably been a good president back then.

            Isn’t exactly a ringing endorsement.

            But back in the 80s it wasn’t even debatable, Biden was the best public speaker of his generation.

            And yeah, he was/is a neoliberal, but he’d have been pretty indistinguishable from Bill. And back then his whole “work with Republicans, not against them” schtick had a chance of working.

            Bidens time was decades ago. Doesn’t mean he was perfect back then. But I don’t think he’s changed much, you seem to think he has.

              A Biden presidency probably would have been better than a Reagan one.

              Random, but when was Hillary’s time?

                When she’d have had her best bet?

                Right after Bill’s second term.

                You might not remember, but they ran as a “two for one”. He had the charisma and she (supposedly) was the policy expert.

                So logically her best shot was right after him, and she probably would have ran if not for the Lewinsky stuff. I think that’s what made her pause, then didn’t want to run against GW after 9/11.

                So she got bumped all the way to 08, Obama happened, so we got stuck with her clogging shit up they the 2016 election.

                  Honestly probably the best answer. I was JAQing off, but kinda wanted your opinion if you were legit. And yeah I think I’d have to agree, although you’re also right in that I can only gleam those facts from reading

          I view it a bit differently. I like the job Biden has done, and think he made a good President. But Biden has always had some key liabilities which limited his ability to win a national election. He has a long history of saying stupid stuff, and he has had a history of “heavily borrowing” from other sources in his speeches. There’s a reason why his campaigns in the 80s usually ended by Super Tuesday.

          But all of those liabilities didn’t matter once he ran against Donald Trump. Trump said 10x more stupid stuff, told 10x more lies, and trigged Biden to fight 10x more fiercely. It is very possible that Donald Trump is the only candidate Joe Biden could ever have beaten in a national election.

          That doesn’t mean that people were voting against Trump, but it does mean that Biden’s strengths were most apparent when running against Trump. And it also explains why his campaign floundered this time: there was a demonstrated lack of energy due to his age that he couldn’t overcome.

            I think what it comes to really is that Biden was, all things considered, a pretty damn good president, and a terrible candidate.

          Sure but he was rejected in lieu of better candidates. You could say exactly the same about trump. He ran when Kerry was getting elected too and lost badly in the primaries.

    In a rant rife with misspellings and baseless conspiracy, Trump wrote: “What are the chances that Crooked Joe Biden, the WORST President in the history of the U.S., whose Presidency was Unconstitutionally STOLEN from him by Kamabla, Barrack HUSSEIN Obama, Crazy Nancy Pelosi, Shifty Adam Schiff, Cryin’ Chuck Schumer, and others on the Lunatic Left, CRASHES the Democrat National Convention and tries to take back the Nomination.”

    The ex-president continued, “He feels that he made a historically tragic mistake by handing over the U.S. Presidency, a COUP, to the people in the World he most hates, and he wants it back, NOW!!!”

    I don’t think Trump knows what the constitution is

      Honestly that first quote reads like a bad AI impersonating trump, it’s that unhinged.

      The second before he posted it, an SNL audience would have been in hysterics if someone did an impersonation of him and read that verbatim, as it would have come across as a comically flanderised version of the real him.

      Alas, we continue through the bottom of the barrel beneath the one we started in

      So he’s just going to once again decide that his Alzheimer’s word garbling was a purposeful thing he meant to do that’s now totally legitimate? I wonder if he decided that over some covfefe.

        He swore to protect it and then violated the one law defined within it that an individual can break that has a prescribed punishment. Why we haven’t implemented the prescribed necktie outlined in the constitution I don’t know. I guess we just don’t want 100% of the people we’ve tried under that law to be white dudes? And also! What he did was 1000x worse than what John Brown did.

          I do: we have at least 34 Senators and 5 SC Justices who let him do it. It’s as simple as that. If he didn’t have either group of people in his pocket, he’d be in jail right now.

              Exactly what I was thinking. It’s a common pattern of his; he can’t ever be wrong, so when he fucks up he has to act like it was intentional.

              This one is going to be extra funny though because his cult will immediately try to imitate it, and we’ll get to see them all stumbling over trying to pronounce “Kamabla”

                You just made me realize, maybe that’s the point.

                He generally refuses to say her name correctly, with the hard first ‘a’ instead of the flatter one. However when you use “blah”, it’s generally a flat ‘a’, and you’d almost never use that hard ‘a’ for “blah” unless you were being sarcastic. Anyways, when using “blah” like you should say her first ‘a’, he now shows he could say it right, he just refuses to.

            He’s deleted typos in the past. He had one tweet referring to “swampman bidan” that he deleted soon after and put the exact same tweet up with Biden’s name spelled correctly. But then again he left covfefe up, so who knows why his stable genius abrain makes the decisions it does.

      He just can’t accept that someone willingly can give up power, I think this is very close to what he felt when the 2020 election was “stolen” from him.

      And it’s funny how he can’t let Obama go from his mind, talk about living rent free…

    I honestly think he forgot what he was talking about halfway through the tweet, and started talking about himself in the third person (as he does) and how they “stole” the presidency from him.

      He’ll never get his rematch, he’ll always be 0-1 to Joe and it’s driving him insane. Let alone the fact that his new opponent is his kryptonite and killing him in his beloved “ratings”. He’s getting booed off stage and Democrats are filling arenas with people chanting “U.S.A”.
