I hope they nominate the boob. He’s Trump’s re-election ticket. If the want Cuomo that could be a problem.
Trump would level Cuomo as well. He is in his 8th year there, and New York has become a cesspool under his leadership. He may talk a good talk, but do Americans really want to be like New York? I doubt it.
It is to late for Cuomo to run!!!
I was wishing for Warren but this idiot will do. Im 90% sure he’s the scapegoat er um..nominee.
Cuomo is trying to save a single state and he’s still going to be doing that in July. He doesn’t have time to campaign for anything. He’s also doing that with the help of a President who’s working to save a nation, an economy, and all the other problems a national leader deals with.
If the Democrats seize on Cuomo as an an alternative to the increasingly troubling Biden, they will lose any Sanders voters they hoped might come aboard. Sanders is staying in the race to pick up the pieces when Biden finally falls apart. As reluctant as he might be to do it personally, Sanders now has to savage Biden at their next debates to show the party how unfit he is to be President.
With real doubts about his own fitness long term and his difficulties emerging on the campaign trail, Biden’s selection for a woman VP candidate will be critical. She will not only act as a surrogate for him to an unprecedented degree but also faces a real possibility of actually having to assume office. However, Joe cannot hide from debating PDJT and the President will probably set a grueling pace in the general campaign. That will be tough on whoever the Democrat nominee is.
This may all prove to be academic in the end if the President is able to maintain his current popularity.
“I hope they nominate the boob.”
I think at this point they pretty much have to follow thru. Biden has cognitively slipped faster than anyone could have predicted. Their repetition of the DNC plan to use & discard Bernie worked perfectly and Biden has more than 50% of the delegates for a 1st ballot nomination. Unless he were to withdraw voluntarily he’ll have the delegates in a few weeks.
The only action left to the DNC would be to start leaking specifics on the Biden connections in the Ukraine & China. The danger there is that they get Bernie — and I’ve never been convinced that Bernie actually ‘wants it’.
I think the Plan remains to try & get Biden elected with a VP runningmate acceptable to the DNC, then use the 25th Amendment after the midterms to remove Biden. The VP gets elevated for a potential 10-year reign of terror.
The DEMS need to put him on ice and then beg off when debate time with Trump arrives. He cannot speak unscripted. Joe even stated he is a “placeholder”. That is not inspiring. The other DEMS were pushed out before Super Tuesday since they would be harder to dispatch at the convention. Joe will be easy to get rid of. The entire DEM primaries were a joke.
Cuomo cannot abandon NY while the crisis clean up still goes on in July. Beating Trump will be hard and he doesn’t want to be labeled a loser. Easy to run in 2024 against someone else when voters like to switch parties every 8 years.
