Happy New Year! What are your political predictions for 2024?

No predictions, only hopes

Here are my top 10, with a couple happening in early 2025:
1. Trump is the Republican nominee
2. There are no presidential debates
3. Once again a divided Congress with a Republican controlled Senate and a Democratic house by the slimiest of margins.
4. No one has enough electoral votes for the Presidency in November.
5. Pundits endlessly debate what happens next and Americans are shocked at how the Constitutional process works with no electoral college winner
6. President Trump sworn in January 2025.
7. Crime gets so bad that the Federal Government assumes control of DC
8. Harvard Corporation under mounting pressure fires embattled President Gay.
9. Harvard Corporation gives Harvard President’s job to Kamala Harris in January 2025.
10. Washington’s football team has a new moniker; need the merchandise income to pay for new coaching staff led by Bill Belichick.

The fighting in Gaza continues well into the year. Hamas operatives in the West Bank expand the war in the spring. Hezbollah attempts a major incursion to support the West Bank fighting in early summer. Israel retaliates and invades Lebanon to wipe out Hezbollah. The US hits sites in Iran to destroy Iran’s long range strike capability in the fall.

Definitely agree with #2. No way does Biden’s campaign allow him to debate.

Third party candidate will capture a few electoral votes.

KMT wins in Taiwan this month shocking the world

México gets its first Jewish president

Modi wins crushing victory in India

No presidential debates

Senate R 51-49

House D

One of Biden or Trump will pass away

Zelenskyy further loses credibility

McConnell steps down from leadership due to physical degradation

OPEC cannot maintain discipline and infighting ensues

Dunno about Israel, Iran, etc - I just wish the Middle East and all the people there disappeared overnight. Truly the worst region

More than a few. Latest national Quinnipiac poll has Biden 38, Trump 36, Kennedy 22.

If they ever debate, it'll be Kennedy that sounds like the reasonable one. Lots of opportunities for constitutional chaos

That hasn’t happened since 1948. Which 3rd party candidate could win at least one state?

Thanks for the lesson trump campaign. The likely winner does not debate. There is no advantage to it.

Kennedy wins what state? Be serious. He is not getting any electoral college votes.

Trump will be removed from campaign one way or another (jailed, poisoned, fall from the window). We became much like Russia. If Biden alive, he will be president. If not, Newsom. The end.

The odds that trump and/or Biden get sick or die before jan 20 2025 is not unlikely.
