Says “agree,” doesn’t understand the post with which they “agree.” Yep. That’s a Republican trying to play at being a third party booster. |
If the Rs and Ds do no better than Trump vs Biden 2 in 2024, No Labels will seriously consider fielding a candidate. If the R or D parties nominate a normal candidate with a respectable favorbility rating amongst voters, they are unlikely to have a need to run. Not exactly rocket science here. If the Ds nominate a Bill Clinton or the Rs nominate a Mitt Romney, we won't have a No Labels candidate. It doesn't have to be both parties nominating someone different. |
What about no labels helping get trump elected do you not understand? Rationalize helping give trump a second term how ever you want, it still results in the election of trump again. We are not idiots. Don't tell me you object to trump and then help give him the white house. |
Now that we are seeing the polling taking more R's from Trump than D's from Biden, I say go for it. |
What Democrat would be acceptable to you? It has to be a real person who is plausible. |
Take your whining to those responsible for trying to get Trump and Biden nominated again. The notion of a competent 3rd party candidate in 2024 isn't the root of the problem. |
Awwwww. Someone doesn't like that third party candidates don't win presidential elections. Sorry. Calling pointing out reality whining, does not change reality. |
If No Labels convinced Joe Manchin to run, then I don’t disagree. But do we know this is true for sure in the case of a lifelong Republican like Larry Hogan? |
What difference does it make? The third part candidate does not win. They serve to assist one of the other candidates. |
Again, they only plan to run if Trump AND Biden are the nominees. If Trump and Biden become the nominees with no viable 3rd party candidate, we'd be looking at the weakest presidential field in the history of our country and what makes you so sure the 3rd party has zero chance of winning in this unprecedented circumstance? No one with an IQ over 80 is voting for Trump in 2024 period. That gives pretty good odds to any viable candidate running against him. We just need someone with less obvious weaknesses running against him and we should be less concerned of where that candidate comes from. You can't rely on the recent failures of 3rd parties as predictors of what will happen in 2024 because our current political situation is far, far different from anything experienced our lifetimes. |
They have zero chance of being anything but spoilers |
Joe Manchin can't win. Too many Ds hate him and young people really hate him given his continuing support and financial interests in coal - as our earth is heating up by the way. Biden is old, but he has not been a bad president. The vast majority of No Labels donors are huge Trump supporters (hello Harlan Crow). Explain why they would donate to an org that says that they will only run a candidate if there is a Trump vs. Biden ticket. They claim they don't want Trump, but his supporters are funding the whole thing. That leads to one answer, they know that No Labels will insure a Trump win! |
And tell me, while you're so up on No Labels - what are their actual positions? Can you name three things they stand for, other than being not Trump or not Biden? I bet not! They're a cipher, there to project whatever you want onto them - and take your money. |
And FYI - I met with Nancy Jacobson. She was AWFUL! |
Ironically, most of their stated positions mirror that of the Biden Administration. Go figure. |
