If Trump wins, theres the next generation of MAGA type Republican. He might not be totally sold on Trumop but like all the others he will kiss the ring and bend the knee if it means that he can get ahead.
And the language of religion - a "devout" Republican, which suggests it would be a *sin* to accept condolences from a Democrat President.

It's a shame.
Although I can sort of understand by imagining myself in her position being called by Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
The role of a PM or President is sometimes to pass on commiserations. Brown and Blair wrote to and spoke to the families of plenty of British soldiers who died in Iraq and Afghanistan. Most had the good grace to differentiate between the person, their party and the office.
Noting that Johnson was a despicable character. Would you have accepted a call from say Theresa May under those circumstances?
Possibly. I might even have taken the call from Johnson. It's hard imagine how one would react, that's all I'm saying.
He’s also referred to the UK as the first Islamist state to have nuclear weapons following Labours general election victory.
Sounds like a typically ill informed MAGA knob

I'm wary of posting random bullshit from Reddit/Tiktok but this is quite interesting to see, assuming it is accurate at all. You'd think one in the eye probably would have done it.
Given all the chat about it being a setup or the "hahaha incel boy wasn't good enough shot for the military" chat, it's crazy to see how close it really was. Teflon Don really is something else.

At 200m or less, and assuming the rifle is properly sighted, it’s hard to miss a target that size.
But the shooter was inexperienced and probably jacked full of adrenaline and Trump did move.
But yeah, very close. If the shooter had gone for the chest he could have really struggled to miss

And now Biden has covid. Jesus christ.
A conspiracy theory we can all get behind, at last!
It was so much easier to blame Them. It was bleakly depressing to think They were Us. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

Could this be the medical excuse Biden is looking for? I don't wish the man any ill. I would like him to step aside and perhaps a dose of covid might remind him that he's getting weaker and no longer up to it.
What I'm struggling to understand is why the leadership of the Democrats is pushing so hard to get him nominated set in concrete? I know that there is a need to register a Democratic candidate in states before a cut-off date, but I understand that to be early August. This insistence on ignoring the issue of Biden's capability to hold high office moving forward is plain dumb.

Well, I don't know much, I've seen a fair bit on socials (pinch of salt etc) about how the likes of Pelosi and others are now trying to get him to stand aside, plus today I've seen several polls that claim to show voters in swing states would happily vote Democrat (over Republican) if almost anyone other than Biden or Harris were on the ticket. Maybe all hope isn't lost? Or maybe I shouldn't believe what I see on socials and just accept that Trump will win.

I think Trumps base is entirely behind him but that’s not a majority of the electorate. I’m sure other voters will go elsewhere if given a reason to. Biden just isn’t inspiring them to do so.
Kamala now bookies favourite to get the nomination
Not a hope she beats trump
Whitmer seems to be someone who could challenge trump in mid West battlegrounds where it'll be won and lost. There's really only half a dozen states up for grabs

Kamala just might but America is almost as racist as it is sexist, so...
Whitmer has said that she doesn't want it (this time). Even if she did, the big problem is that she's completely untested on the national stage. Even with decent (if incomplete) name id, the scrutiny of a presidential run is just different. Just ask Ron Desantis.
I refuse to have a battle of wits with an unarmed person.
Massive conundrum here. Kamala is the obvious replacement, but she doesn’t appear to be that popular and there’s a racist and sexist issue to get over. But would the Dems want to replace her with a white man? Not a great look.
I like Whitmee but if she isn’t keen yet then I’m not sure who else. I have a horrible feeling that it’s too late and this is now about damage limitation.
