Who do you like for 2024 (if there is an election, if we are even alive)?

[FrodosNewPet]

I know, Trump has amazing abilities to shoot himself in the foot. But he always seems to come out of it.

And now the riots are a gift to him.

I am TRYING to maintain hope. But seeing SO MANY people acting SO STUPID and destructive. Yes, there are undoubtedly some QAnon and other Trump extremists agitating. But that does not account for all of it.

Please talk me down. PLEASE tell me why this nation isn't completely screwed.

COVID-19. Learning I have cancer. And watching Trump slither his way back to four more years of devastation. 2020 is horrible. I'm not sure if I want to proceed with a radical cystectomy and a lifetime of sickness just to witness this.

1. Biden's VP, whoever that may be...

preferably a black woman like Val Demings or Kamala Harris.

Fuck it, I ain't giving up hope yet.

6. I am trying not to.

This year is such a gut punch.

Strangely (or perhaps not), I am not all that freaked out about my own personal situation, beyond what effect my passing would have on others. I have been blessed with a full, varied, rich life, with some amazing adventures and accomplishments, along with the sense that I survived some dark depths of heartache, loss, and poverty. I would rather live longer, but I do not feel cheated in life (unlike FAR too many people).

What worries me, what scares me, is the world beyond me. The world after me. I see the children all around, and I cannot help but worry what kind of poisoned, authoritarian world are we leaving them?

[fleur-de-lisa]

10. Yes! Harris or Demings.

I would be thrilled with either one.

[Wounded Bear]

12. Another thread mentions Susan Rice, who would also be a good choice...nt

[demmiblue]

19. +1

[Cornus]

2. Any one of the MANY qualified black women

Stacey Abrams is my first choice.

[LexVegas]

3. Jesus Fucking Christ.

[LakeArenal]

4. Not my words but definitely my sentiment.

My hubs just asked who would you like as JFC’s running mate?

[Wounded Bear]

13. Not Paul, for damn sure...

[FrodosNewPet]

9. I would vote for him

The real one, not the right wing impersonator.

[monmouth4]

5. Adam Schiff in a heartbeat. n/t

[MissB]

7. Biden, if he wants a second term.

Otherwise his VP, if she chooses to run.

[LakeArenal]

15. Yes this. I expect Joe to serve two terms.

I would be damn pissed if any Democrat primaries him.

Very pissed.

[MissB]

16. Yep.

My comment on the VP trying for a term in 2024 assumes that Biden calls it good after one term. I wouldn’t expect his VP to try to primary him.

[LakeArenal]

17. Yet here, during a horrible time in history,

When we haven’t even won an election, someone is planning for Joe to what... quit?
I can’t believe it’s even a question.

[MissB]

20. It seems

that the OP expects him to lose in November. I believe that Joe Biden will be our next president.

[LakeArenal]

21. Oh yes, I see that now. I hardly read past the title.

“Talk him down”.

Okay, sorry about your health problems.
Please focus on them and not your idea about losing the election. That part is bullshit.

Edit: I checked the profile.

[Demsrule86]

8. Biden...second term.

[lagomorph777]

11. Oh snap out of it.

Riots did the Dems in, in 1968. They will do the same for Pukes in 2020.

[pwb]

14. Joe Biden again.

Or his female V. P.

[Wednesdays]

18. Unrec. nt

[jcgoldie]

22. ...
