I predict that for 2028, the DNC will insist that we run a compromise ticket. For one, AOC is a little to young, so she should be the VP pick. To balance the ticket, they’ll want someone who is older and more conservative to run for the main slot. And why not someone who has actually run before, and has some experience on the presidential campaign trail?
That’s why in 2028, the centrists at the DNC will give us Duke-Occasio Cortez ticket! For the VP, we’ll have AOC, and for the front runner, we’ll have 1988 Democratic presidential primary candidate David Duke.
I’m sure Chuck Schumer will endorse Duke saying, “sure we may lose some progressives. But for every progressive voter we lose in Philadelphia, we’ll gain two overt white supremacist voters in the Philadelphia suburbs!”
I don’t know literally anything about Waltz but is he that progressive? This is the “Israel has a right to expand its borders” guy so that’s unexpected.
Doesn’t really matter. The country wasn’t at the point where it would have voted for a woman. The US is still extremely misogynistic, as seen by a guy who takes notes from Saudi Arabia winning the popular vote.
Waltz has a personality that a great many people respond to well, and he’s an old white dude. That seems to be the winning ticket these days.
I won’t speak to his personality because again I don’t know anything about him, but I don’t think being a woman had much to do with Harris losing. If she was a good candidate she’d have won because her opponent was Trump; and if a man with the same positions and attitude had run they’d have lost for the same reasons she lost.
or just hear me out here, Jimmy Carter is still alive. when trump runs in 2028, that ammendment goes out the window, so, we can, you know, run him, too, right?
(For the record, I don’t know if Carter was a good president. I think he got a bad break with the contra affair, and he did good elsewhere. But I will say this: he’s a spectacular expresident)

If they ran Waltz with AOC as VP, it would be a slam dunk.
Hell, if Harris and Waltz had been flipped, it would have been a blowout.

Walz losing the VP debate to Vance was the start of the Trump ticket comeback.
It would be funnier if he hadn’t flipped parties after that and ran again as a Republican in 1992.

Carter is still eligible to run, he only had one term.
Perfect….

This is fucking hilarious. I hope more people appreciate your wit.
What wit, all I see is a time-traveller come to warn us
