Thank fuck. This man can go down in history as the savior of the Republic if he fucks off and endorses someone else.
minus-squareOptional@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·5 months agoHe’s not saying he can’t do it for six more months. That’s kinda weird to imagine that, on top of everything. But hey, even if he got hit by a bus and Harris got sworn in, barring some superhuman politicking she’d have a floor fight.
