It’s been six months. Talk about early handicapping…
“Independents, who often determine winners in close elections, are less positive than negative, 28% favorable to 53% unfavorable.”
Can someone explain this to me? Of course, *Dems* are going to hate him like they hate any living Republican. But independents? Why the lopsided hate among alleged “independents”? Because other than mere partisanship, I don’t quite get what’s to dislike so much about JDV. He seems like a good guy to me. He’s got a great biography (cf. Hillbilly Elegy), made something out of life after a difficult childhood, served in the Marines, is a family man. Seems to me that to hate him, is to hate what good and decent about America.
When President Vance takes office, he could appoint Trump as a temporary advisor and a lot of time off.
If Trump is popular in 2028, then Trump will run. He will find a way, and I hope he is healthy enough to do so.
We’ve definitely got a deeper bench than the Democrats. Vance is popular and has the VP experience to his advantage. Rubio has done incredibly and surprisingly well while serving in the Trump administration. DeSantis probably has the best regard of getting things accomplished.
It’s still earlier. Oftentimes there is a dark horse emerging from the shadows. I’m open to considering a strong conservative breaking into the lineup during the next three years.
It at least looks like we won’t have a McCain or a Romney.
Last I heard, this site is nothing more than an advocate for sodomy. Correct me if I am wrong.
Trump’s record is likely to be very good on the economy, border and the US position in the world.
That’s a very good starting position. Vance/Rubio is the odds on favorite right now.
Vance is obviously the favorite at the moment. I’m guessing that might not last as the time approaches. His wife will probably be a turnoff to some who don’t want the nation’s first lady to be a practicing Hindu. It wouldn’t surprise me if, in mid to late 2008, it comes down to DeSantis, Rubio, or an emerging conservative relative unknown.
George H.W. Bush, ...bec(a)me the first incumbent vice president to be elected president since Martin Van Buren.
JD Vance is owned by Peter Theil and Palantir Technologies.
If you understood Palantir, you would be worried. They are 100X worse than Snowden warned us about.
What could Trump do for an encore? He could travel to the remaining states needed for a Convention Of States and offer to be the Chairman once it was called. That would put him up there with George Washington who chaired the original Convention.
His prospects began and end with Peter Thiel.
