Super Delegates?

Don’t know?

You need to study more.

Democrats use a “Super Delegate “ system.

Kamala’s 500 could be worth janitorial staff status.

She’ll have a majority by Wednesday of this week.

There isn’t going to be a contested convention. There are no other candidates.

There’s out of his mind and there’s completely unable to function on even the most basic level. I think they realized how quickly he was reaching the latter point, and the panic we are seeing is the most obvious response.

Yeah it's getting bad. Imagine 2 months of intense campaigning and the effects that would have on him.

This is the part I think lots of bubble people are not realizing.

Who is volunteering as tribute for this other than Kamala?

Just so you know, super delegates can't vote in the first round at the Democratic convention. The first round is just selected delegates from the primaries and caucuses.

The point of the super delegates is if a candidate can't get a majority in the first round of voting, they step in to make sure it doesn't go on forever. THis almost happened in 1968 (when LBJ stepped down and Robert Kennedy was shot). The concept of super delegates were proposed after that and adopted by Democrats after 1976 when the GOP nearly had a similar convention issue (where Ford barely got enough to beat Reagan in the primaries).

But again, they currently don't vote until after the first round of voting. They only have an impact if nobody gets the majority then.

While we’re just guessing and using goofy logic, I think folks in 2028 will still remember how you and your people have done us these last 8 years.

Y’all gonna put up someone within the blast radius of this current shite show? We don’t trust y’all. You’ve lied too much and told us not to believe our eyes and our hearts for too long.

Put up someone halfway connected to this era of dem insanity and watch how hard we ride for DeSantis. I can’t believe you think this ends in 2028.

Pushing for smaller government. The horror.

You seem confused at what "my people" are. My people don't have enough power to do this

Desantis? Or Vance? Or Lake? Or Byron Donalds? Or maybe one of the Kentucky boys?

I like to read comments on Yahoo finance articles to laugh at the idiots. I was reading one this morning about Kamala. I must have read 50 comments and not a single one was positive about her. That place is usually a liberal wonderland.

My only thought is there is internal polling that shows she will help save several down ballet seats. Where as Joe must have shown a massacre down ballet.

Here comes the racebaiting

Don’t be shocked to see another black man die at the hands of the police.

That's how Democrats roll. If it's got a (D), they vote for it. They don't have to know their agenda or background. Or a pulse.

It took Joe Biden being cast into the ticket to get Kamala here. And they still had to cheat to win.

I don't know, man. After four years of the media gassing up Trump as Hitler again and making insane controversies out of every little thing (the intel agencies will lie and leak for four years), there will be a ton of fatigue. Now, he won't have COVID to deal with, but I do think they will find another Floyd type deal to riot about. SFP is right that the economy is key, though. We can't keep adding a trillion in debt every 100 days. Somebody is going to pay for that and it could be Trump.

You’re not MAGA. There’s MAGA, and not MAGA.

Y’all enjoyed banding together to save democracy. Our side won’t forget it while you’re trolling us these next 4 years.

You can run your little fantasy scenarios as much as you’d like and pretend having nice options is a terrible thing while you wish cast a poor performance from the right.

Enjoy that, I guess.

How does voting for his original choice's VP change anything?

They have a couple of weeks and it will be something to see. The media and everyone will be working to remake her image into something likable. There will be no mention of the border at all. That’s all bad news for her.

They’re going to double down on this, huh?

Awesome




I guess if SFP gets what he wants and the economy crashes while Trump is holding the bag, things could be tough in 2028. But that’s the case for anyone. For all we know a dem will win and be the one hurt by the economy. Silly to discuss it.

10 Million illegal votes in 2020. An easy 20 Million in 2024. Harris has already been elected.
And once again, the RINOs will be in the corner in a fetal position and do NOTHING.
US is done and over with.

I won't believe Dems roll with Harris until it happens. She's more unelectable than Biden.


This. I hope they do roll with her because it will be a DNC slaughter... but I am not counting on it. They might drop Big Mike down from the rafters at the DNC last second, confetti flying and have him accept "her" nomination. I think they lose anyway in a legitimate election, but I would feel more comfortable if Trump goes heads up against the cackler.

Yes, again. Unlike MAGA, I'm for smaller government.

Did you see Trump v. RDS? It was bad and it may have neutered RDS nationally and with MAGA perpetually moving forward. Imagine 4-8 people doing the same sort of damage against each other, splitting apart the factions of the GOP and MAGA. There is no succession plan for Trump and Trump is a one-off guy (why he wrecked shop in 2016 against 10+ opponents). MAGA also isn't that popular nationally, but they pretend they are. It's going to be a civil war and the person who emerges will be scarred with other factions legit angry at them for winning. You're going to have multiple CTs from multiple angles/factions and unrest, dissent, and just general in-fighting.

Never had to run as the main candidate in a primary or anything. I'm sure Democrats that voted, actually voted, for Biden are thrilled.


To be honest, anyone who already committed their vote to Biden is a voter that would NEVER vote Republican anyway, no matter who the Dem or Republican candidate is.

They're voting Democrat. That's it. It would be a small number of those core committed voters who would not throw their vote to Kamala to try and beat OMB and muh "save democracy."
