The 2028 Democratic primary has already begun — and this time, the candidates aren’t trying to hide it.

Everybody is asking over and over in the news media, are you running for president? I keep saying no again and again. I want all of you reporters to just knock off the questioning.
It’s driving my presidential campaign staff nuts.
Ill be here all week. Except when I’m not. 😂👍
That is very true.
Kamala spent, what, a Billion dollars in four or five months? Well, maybe not all of it was spent --- some of it just disappeared. She may still be living on it, for all I know.
Anyway, it's a big business now, full time --- not just on election year. If you want your foot in the WH door you gotta grease some palms.
Agreed.
” heels, UP ! “
Hahaha
