The GOP fantasy crowd is so accustomed to conspiracy theories that they’re betting the Democrats will switch candidates at the last minute. Have they actually paid attention to politics?

Democrats have all the spontaneity of the House of Windsor. Or, closer to home, they’re closer to what Republicans once were, a party that falls in line not in love.

    There are potentials. Eg. Gavin Newsom. He did well on Hannity.

    It’s too late for him to become the candidate, but perhaps he’ll do as vice president.

    Statistically there’s something like a 50% chance that Biden dies within the next few years. No one lives forever. There needs to be a good backup.

        Biden is going to be the nominee. That’s how the cookie crumbles.

        Biden is currently 81. I googled and there’s something like a 10% chance he dies within the year. Similar number for Trump obviously, given he’s fat, angry and doesn’t exercise. Unfortunately God is dead, or I’d be able to factor in thoughts and prayers too.

        They need to have good VP picks though.

          My apologies. Unless it’s he literally can’t run for president, Biden is going to be the nominee.

          I thought that was implicit. Obviously if he can’t run, he won’t be the nominee.
