That's news to me. Literally.

Anyway, just look at the alternatives:

Senile incumbent Blue Dog relic who never met drug that he didn't want to ban or a bank that he didn't want to favor or a war that he didn't want to wage and rejects the most sensible alternative to either cowing to McCarthy or defaulting on the national debt....Biden.
Senile, criminal ex-President who just lost a major defamation lawsuit and would drag this country further into the abyss....Trump.
Crazy homophobic panderer, former Sith apprentice to Darth Trump- De Santis
Neocon, Zombie Reaganite with zero clues about the rise of both real and pseudo populism- Haley.
Christian fundie darling- Tim Scott.
Vaccine reality denier- RFK, Jr.

Did I miss anyone?

There is an out of control trolley speeding towards Jeremy Bentham, who is tied to the track. You can pull the lever to cause the trolley to switch tracks, but on the other track is Immanuel Kant. Bentham is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Critique of Pure Reason. Kant is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Principles of Moral Legislation. Both men are shouting at you that they have recently started to reconsider their ethical stances.

Is he running? I hadn't heard much about him lately. Still not sure if he's a moderate progressive or a progressive moderate.

Me- Sees thread

Me- "Guys i dropped off some pizza before yall get at each others throats please enjoy"

Me- runs out the door before my ass catches fire

In all seriousness though, wasnt there a hickup with DeSantis announcement on Twitter? Like a crash or something? If so it would be kinda a bad omen id say for whats to come. My problem with DeSantis is that he pledges to make America Florida, and his success in that state is only bolstered by retired folks moving in. Florida is a cheep soulless shithole for the most part with not to mention some of the worst public education. As for the other Republicans, their not much better. On one hand are greedy autocrats who should be nominated for an award over their acting about being sad about national debt and the other extreme are neo nazi evangelicals who see the Handmaids Tale as a goal to achieve. Trump is too old, too impatient and too dangerous, Biden is a bumbling moron and im not a communist, socialist, nazi, or any other extreme so i dont want to vote for those people ether.

My beliefs are mostly centrist, im neutral on economics and center right on social issues. I just want someone who can represent my views and the views of everyone else who just wants pragmatism in such a strange world. Unfortunately that wont happen, and with the government a bloated mess and the nazis and communists throwing hands. The voice of the actual people gets drowned out and im sick of it. Pax Americana will die exactly like Rome's did, and maybe thats a good thing.

You're blind, we weren't in this downward spiral till Biden entered the picture. He's an insult to Americans and that's been proven many times. Not to mention that opening speech of "Joe Bidens husband" and "They have good ice cream here" to address on the Tennessee shooting, that was just stupid and he needed the boot after that failure of a speech for a small example. We need a leader, not some stumbling decrepit old person.
