2024 ELECTION THREAD

None of this

meh

if the Dems do this right and have an open convention and put forward their strongest ticket, the Donald / JD ticket will get curb stomped

who has trump attracted to vote for him that wasn't already voting for him in 2020?

trump's only real advantage this go round was that dems weren't super happy with bidens age.

lol

says the UK pundit

afraid you're way off w your analysis

Michelle Obama here we go

I'M WITH HER

quickly checks Betfair

DJT still -200 to win
Harris -1000 to be the Dem nominee
Any alternative is clearly worse for the Dems

Am I missing something?

just endorsed harris

Yes.
Time.

I can think of a poster or two who claimed they don't want Trump, but were forced to hope for him against Biden - they must be excited about this development!

Please, elaborate

Also, I find it really weird that some people put so much stock in political betting markets, as if in isolation they prove something.

yeah.. now they are going to be forced to vote for the 80 yr old over the 59 year old because reasons..

The calls by Dems for biden to resign immediately if he isn’t going to run for president is absolutely ****ing wild

Wtf is happening lol

Betting Biden would drop out was free money.

Exactly.

People were still betting on trump to win after he lost.

yep

strategic mistake. the honor/loyalty Dem crap is how you got Hillary

Kamala is a better candidate than Biden, but wouldn't be part of the strongest ticket possible

the Veep pick plays an oversized role in a spot like this

lastly, Harris shouldn't debate Trump. Trump isn't a serious person when it comes to a traditional debate, so just set that aside

The odds won’t stop moving from here to the election .
And bobo comment too .

Common sense?

idk. i think this was the least chaotic decision. it will be interesting to see the law with regards to the delegates that are already pledged to Biden/Harris. there is some thought that without biden and with Harris running w/ endorsement that those delegates wouldn't be released but still obligated to Harris.. not sure on that though.

harris should absolutely debate Trump if it's a possibility. she's much better at it than most. on the other hand i doubt Trump will agree to debate her. no upside in it for him now.

the stuff about hillary is true though, i agree.

I’m not a fan of Harris as a nominee at all but the cleanest way towards avoiding an extended convention is biden firmly endorsing a nominee so his delegates can just got there

And biden can’t really endorse anyone but kamala

Going in this direction means harris can fixated on the VP choice (I’m guessing Shapiro at this point) rather than courting a fiasco

The fact that trump is now the oldest presidential candidate in American history is objectively hilarious
