I'm seeing some stuff online saying he is considering a run in 2028. I think that's a bad idea for him to be honest.

He's good for mild entertainment but I haven't ever seen anything he's complaining about get rectified.

I'd vote for him in a local election in Madisonville for city council or something but I'd never waste another vote for senate.

At the end of the day he's just one more compromised Establishment hack.

Like Fred Dalton Thompson's run in 2008, this is an idea for a movie, not the real world.

No. He's bad because he has 0% chance of winning 3 or 4 states that Trump won.

When has he ever pretended like he's not, though? Or maybe, to better clarify, when has he ever done anything but pretend like he is 100% with him?

That's mostly my issue with the guy.

My issue with him is he's fake as frick. Full of hot air and witty expressions but no real substance.

Pretty much what I'm getting at.

He's pretty good at questioning liberals in hearings.

Ha ha. Wife loves the guy but when it gets down to stuff like January 6 he is as worthless as tits on a boat hog.

This Nation will be on the brink by ‘28. Of course I probably predicted that for 2020. Which was pivotal given the rigged election and 25 million new Democrat voters welcomed into the country with all manner of massive$$$$$! Jokes will not be as funny in that day.

Why would he want to run for president, when he has to run for senate in the same year?

He is 74 now. Donald Trump is 79 going on 80 this weekend.

If he does run, that will make for an interesting race if he forgoes his Senate seat.

I wonder if Jeff has his sights on the Senate.

I ain’t trying to be a dick at all, but why would Democrats need both the ability to rig elections (and the difficulties and “risks” that I’m sure come with it) AND the 25 million new voters (again, along with the difficulties and insanity that comes with it, knowing that group of yahoos)?? Again, no sarcastic gotcha involved here. I just want everything to make sense damn it.

Heretofore, there was zero “risks” re harvested ballots. Or even counting atrocities like the video of Ruby Freeman. He’ll, what of Hunter’s Laptop and the MSM/muh Former Intel Experts that signed a letter that they knew was a fraud? And with enough votes for Biden to win.

It’s a ‘he said/she said scenario evidence nws. And I don’t think there is a systemic way of fixing that. A hard pill to swallow but the historical record is full of that.

Yall do realize that 95% of the politicians that run for the Presidency know that they don't have a chance? They are not running to actually win.

It is usually for one of the following reasons:

- Raising profile to sell books or get a commentator spot on tv
- testing the waters for a future governor or senate run (like Vivek did)
- Auditioning for a cabinet or ambassador post with whoever actually wins
- To rabble rouse or damage one of the real mainstream candidates (these are usually soros funded or the like. They just attack the front runner and are funded for that purpose.)

That has been my experience in following these things.

Very bad.

He is a thinker, not a doer.

1) There isn't a Senator in the capitol that doesn't think they can win the presidency. 2) Kennedy is not in the best shape these days. I think his political career likely ends with this term.
