I guess it's time to start talking about it. Biden, 80, has announced he'll be running for re-election. Trump, who will be 77 in June, is currently the leading candidate in the GOP, but with his legal hassles he might not end up being nominated. I was hoping each party would come up with a new candidate for next year, and while it still might happen, at this point it appears it will be a Biden - Trump rematch. I'm not unhappy with the job Biden has done but I wish he was at least 10 years younger. As for Trump, have I ever told any of you that I'm not a fan? Yes? I thought so! Anyway let's see how it all unfolds over the next year and a half. Hope the shit doesn't hit the fan!
I was certainly hoping for someone younger and charismatic to step up to the plate... someone with moderate center of the road thinking instead of the radical divisive culture war bullshit we are presently experiencing.
Here's what we have so far, there will surely be other candidates later! List of Democratic candidates Joe Biden (D), incumbent president of the United States, announced he would run on April 25, 2023. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. (D), a lawyer and author, announced he would run on April 5, 2023. Marianne Williamson (D), 2020 presidential candidate and author, announced she would run on February 23, 2023. List of Republican candidates Nikki Haley (R), former U.N. Ambassador and South Carolina Governor, announced she would run on February 14, 2023. Asa Hutchinson (R), former Arkansas Governor, announced he would run on April 2, 2023. Vivek Ramaswamy (R), entrepreneur and political commentator, announced his campaign on February 21, 2023. Corey Stapleton (R), former Montana Secretary of State, announced he would run on November 11, 2022. Donald Trump (R), former U.S. President, announced he would run on November 15, 2022.
as proof that NEITHER major candidate gives a flying fuck about the average citizen the majority do NOT want EITHER trump or biden to run yet here we are
Well, I don't think Biden could not run again, then he'd be like admitting he wasn't fit for the job. I'm going to pull for RFKJ.
You're half right, Trump clearly doesn't give a flying fuck about the average citizen, not even his supporters. I feel Biden is too old. Ditto with Trump, and I also feel he's too corrupt, abrasive and incompetent.
It’s okay boomer part 2 - even though I think they’re both too old to be boomers! It’s emblematic of this pattern of the arrogance and selfishness of these older generations. Its time to pass the leadership torch
DeSantis is expected to announce he's running sometime around mid-May. Might be difficult doing that while battling Mickey Mouse and the Enchanted Kingdom.
