?????? v Trump (and one or two others) The US Presidential election 2024. Read OP before posting

And that's enough of dealing with you.

hulk hogan will speak tonight at the RNC. Someone who matches and on a good day with a following wind tells as many lies as trump. I wonder will he bring up the time he drank beer with John belushi in 1986, which is grand except John Belushi had died four years before that in 1982.

No.. he might mention the whole gawker media saga though. The RNC has a loathing for the media after all and that will feed right into it.

I doubt he has Covid. If he does it is perfect timing.

Unfortunately for Joe I think the doctors have found something wrong with him and this information has somehow got out to the top brass in the Democrats.

I'm sorry but that is a rather naïve view of the reality of the situation. Honestly since Saturday I thought the storm had been weathered and they would row in behind after the attempt on Trump.

With Schiff declaring publicly he is gone, I can guarantee you Schiff did not make that decision himself. It's a hand grenade that never allowed Biden's team a breath.

Biden will declare he is stepping down once the freak circus that is the RNC convention is done or in the days after.

Of course the perfect time to do it would be 1 minute into Trumps Speech tonight, all networks "and we go live to the oval office".

Whitmer/ Kelly would be my choice. Excellent ticket to lock down crucial swing states, pretty much scandal free with impeccable credentials. Both of them would wallop their opposition in any debate, for what that's worth.

This is correct, in a technical sense. Biden's pledged delegates are people who have fealty to him. Party members or elected officials or activists in each state with a direct personal loyalty to him and handpicked by his campaign team. Then there is the technical issue of money raised within the control of his campaign, and how that can be redirected but only with his assent.

A new candidate can definitely be stood up, delegates can pledge for them, money can be redirected, key campaign staff can be moved / newly identified as necessary and campaign infrastructure and offices can be repurposed. It is all possible, but Biden has to be on board for it to happen. If he decides to bull on then - absent of invoking the 25th amendment or trying via a circus last gasp effort on the convention floor to force someone else - he is going to be the nominee.

Where I maybe disagree with you is in regard to your earlier posts - the Dem power structure and his inner circle of advisors could have tried to change his mind months or maybe years ago, and made it clear that they would create the conditions for a real primary race. Instead they moved South Carolina first to make the climb even steeper for outside challengers. But that is all in the past now.

Hopefully he can be convinced to do one final last act of national service.

Who is Kelly?

Mark Kelly, Senator for Arizona. Husband of former Congresswoman Kathy Gifford's, fighter pilot and astronaut

Whoever replaces Biden should be put in soon to give him/her a chance.

He's amazing person. A true American hero, unlike Trump who is a demagogue.

I'd honestly love to see Kelly debate Trump or Vance, he'd turn them inside out.

Incidentally, the Biden/Harris warchest is not a deal-breaker. It wouldn't be beyond the wit of technology to refund all donors and have them quickly re-commit the funding to the new candidates.

The word is that Harris' people are telling her not to run, because she WILL lose, and thats any chance of a 2028 tilt, or any other year, dead an buried for her.

And so the Dems should go for absolute broke, in my opinion. Whitmer with Kelly, or Moore, or Schiff, or Jeffries, or Buttigieg, or even Newsom.

They have the talent to slice up Trump, they are just afraid that they can't do right for doing wrong.
