2024 U.S. Presidential Election Thread: Donald Trump wins & will return to the White House; GOP wins U.S. Senate & U.S. House

[Conan]

I can't overstate how good it feels to live in a solidly blue or solidly red state right now

 

[the next guy]

Why do you want Shapiro or Walz? This is my pick for VP.

You're obtuse if you think Pete plays better with independents than Walz

If progressive leaders like Pete could win on a national level we wouldn't be in the mess we're in right now. Gotta go with somebody who is a little more "familiar" sadly

I absolutely believe Pete can be President one day and would make a good one. Yeah he’s gay but he’s a military veteran and wildly competent so if you attack him on a personal level you’re just going to look like a homophobe who doesn’t respect veterans and people who served the country.

Him being gay is simply a bridge too far in the US. I personally don't care but trust that's just the way it is. Senator or Governor yep. President not happening

He's hit his ceiling

They said all this about Obama in 2006/7. Stop being afraid. Heck they're saying this about Harris now (remains to be seen of course).

I just think when the rubber hit the road that's a huge leap.

I like the guy too. No issues at all with his personal life.

I hear you… I think Kamala and Pete on the same ticket is too ambitious. Pete as VP would work on its own

One day sure. I agree. But probably not right now, splitting the ticket with Kamala. It’s too ambitious. Gotta balance it out

Pete can maybe be sec of state or national security advisor or something but he needs more electoral experience if he’s just gonna be a political figure. He’s a better technocrat imo.

Yep Obama reportedly said as much too.

Not to mention that he's gay which those Rust Belt states aren't ready for.

But the argument can be said that we need to say fcck the Rust Belt because they're always gonna stay behind because of their own decision making

I wouldn't say that and I do believe we do get a gay POTUS one day, but not right now.

 

[The axe murderer]

Almost half the people under 50 don't have em no? This is a hill to die on?
And if they're sociopaths like you say.... Why the fukk would you want them to have kids
