In ignorance I thought it would be Newsom after the debate. I mean, he'd do it in an instant. I think it is only a matter of time until he becomes president. Not cuz I like him but because I have watched how the system works.

It seems to me that Harris is the only real option other than Biden. Don't think I posted this anywhere in 2020 but I told my wife then that I didn't think Biden would survive his term. This looks to be more and more likely by the day.

The money that Biden/Harris have raised can't to my knowledge be legally used by any other candidates. I don't think people in the party would look kindly on skipping over Harris either.

My guess is that there is a war going on in the WH and Dem party right now to destroy Biden and get him to step aside before the convention. Suspecting there's some deal being worked out.

More importantly, the US is so divided by these two parties that I'm actually more concerned about the backlash of the election no matter who wins than either of the two clowns running.

To me the only rational path forward when two people or groups are not willing to live in harmony and compromise where they can is separation. The other path I hope we can avoid which is open violent conflict.

That said, I do think people mostly get along and these clowns just seek to divide us and keep us at each other's throats. I refuse to play that game.
