As a Democrat I have to say that the 2024 Presidential election looks like a lost cause and we’re going to get Trump for another term. The silver lining is that (if we don’t go down the totalitarian path) they’ll be another election in four years and Trump will be as old and enfeebled as Joe is now.
Any thoughts on what a 2028 matchup might look like? It’s interesting because it could be a clean slate and neither party has done a good job of promoting younger candidates. |
Nothing is for sure at this point except disappointment in both major parties by the general electorate. |
Joe Biden will try again, vs. whoever is Trump's VP. And he will win, because he will be even sharper than he's now. Go Joe!!! |
It won’t be Buttigieg since LGTBQ folks will be under house arrest by then.
I’m guessing Whitmer vs. Vance. Or maybe Don Jr. |
If Trump wins in November., there won't be an election in 2028 unless Trump dies that year. |
I've seen plenty of conspiracy theories about dead people voting, but this is the first one I've seen about a dead person running for office. |

If Trump loses, there are no "Republicans" I can think of who could win in '28. The current crop of GOP darlings are all a bunch of spineless Trump acolytes. People tend to remember that. |
If Trump wins there won’t be a 2028 election, because the Supreme Court recently allowed presidents broad and complete immunity from “official acts”. Trump co would find a way to ensure Republicans won in 2028 “for the good of the country” and could very easily do it covertly with these sweeping new powers. So yeah, no, with our new monarchy system things are pretty bad. |
If Trump wins in the fall, 2028 will be meaningless for a democratic president.
The entire point of project 2025 is to remake the federal government and the agencies there under into MAGA’s image. Thousands of experts will have been fired and replaced with right wing sycophants ( to Trumpism) And what little of agencies exist, will have been effectively made irrelevant and powerless. Our country will effectively be run by oligarchs like the Kochs. It will take many presidential election cycles to undo the damage and that’s assuming democrats win all of those cycles. This is Leonard Leo’s end game. Gotta give it to him. He really played the long game, and it looks like he’s won. |
Haley vs Whitmer |
LOL. The media gets people to believe anything. SCOTUS ruling only confirmed current policy and what is obvious. The legal system does not interfere with what should be the executive branch’s powers. However Congress can still make laws and impeach a president. People should pay more attention in Civics class if they still teach it. |
I don’t think people have really internalized the damage that Trump will do. Sure we’ll have another election just like Putin keeps having elections “winning”. |
Sweetie- how can you impeach without evidence? Cuz the SC just ruled that you can’t use “official acts” as evidence of any crime. It’s ok to admit you don’t understand the ruling. It was long. |
A Trump WH will harm the community, but this hyperbole doesn't help. |
