The oblique implication in my comment is that if orangeboi (illegally) runs for a third term, then it also does not matter if Luigi (illegally) runs when he’s too young
After Kamala there’s no way they’ll have another female candidate. The American people would rather vote for all the adjectives that describe Trump than a woman.

Which is extra funny given that candidates like Gretchen Witmer, Liz Warren, and AOC are some of their most popular candidates the party still has to offer.
Gruesome Newsom is going to clinch then nomination on a platform of “America is a fundamentally misogynistic nation” and liberals are going to waltz into 2028 screaming “Vote for us! We hate women more than the Republicans!”
True, but he’s burned his bridges with the Left via transphobia and trying to court the Right, and with the Right by inviting Right Wingers to the podcast and then calling them Bible Thumpers while trying to court them.
He’s got a life raft that’ll prevent him from drowning overnight, but he took a swing at the big time and missed.

He burned it with The Left when he came after the homeless way back during his San Fransisco mayorship. That hasn’t really hurt him, because liberals continue to love the guy.
He’s got a life raft that’ll prevent him from drowning overnight
He’s the Andrew Cuomo of the West Coast. He’ll never drown. Like a fat turd, he’ll always float to the top.
Clinton and Harris are just fake smiles on a status quo neoliberal platform. Of course that didn’t go anywhere. Elizabeth Warren might have stood a chance. AOC is outright popular now but I don’t think she would have won, yet.
Maternal instincts, the lived experience of kindness between friends and neighbors, and the last 10,000 years of gradual but undeniable improvements in social equity could argue this point.
I might also argue that humans are fundamentally good, but still highly mutable. So a few bad apples really can spoil the bunch.
Because babies aren’t racist, sexist, etc. We’re not perfect, and we get some weird ideas as we go through life, but in general I think most people are generally just trying to get by and do their best.
But also yeah sometimes you have to do a violence or whatever.
And if he were to run for a house seat, and we get 2/3 of congress to vote for a package to do this, we could make him president by impeaching and removing POTUS, VP, and have him be speaker of the house and succeed into the presidency for a special term.
Wishful thinking but it would technically be constitutional. I’ve tossed this idea and many others in my head about how to get massive support across the country to accomplish something crazy bold like this but I could go on and on and there’s lots of what ifs
Per the 1947 succession act if the speaker (or anyone else in the line of succession) fails to qualify, and age is a qualifier, it goes to next in line which would be the Secretary level cabinet positions.
I’d be very worried about Luigis politics outside of Healthcare. The jump to murder also does question whether he’d be able to make the compromises necessary to pass legislation. He grew up fairly rich iirc and I would like a president with a bit more life experience.
Holy shit can you guys imagine if the jury rules “not guilty, because you got the wrong fucking guy”? Luigi could probably run in 2028 and win.
Lmao this guy thinks there will still be elections
There will still be elections – they just won’t be fair and legitimate elections.
50 States all went to the GOP… crazy how that happens now that Elon Musk counts the vote
He isn’t old enough.
The oblique implication in my comment is that if orangeboi (illegally) runs for a third term, then it also does not matter if Luigi (illegally) runs when he’s too young
Why not? He already illegally ran in 2024, and was illegally inaugurated…
14th Amendment violater
lol wow uh… you know, I guess you do have a point there 🫠
He’d never defeat the Democrats’ list of very strong candidates.
Am I dumb or is AOC not an option
She is 100% an option, but not for the current Democrat party. They will push her our like they did Sanders.
They’d vote Trump before voting for AOC. At least that’s my take from abroad.
And mine from not abroad.
The Dems are controlled opposition who are funded by the billionaires just like the Rs.
After Kamala there’s no way they’ll have another female candidate. The American people would rather vote for all the adjectives that describe Trump than a woman.
If that’s the lesson dems took from the election, dems are going to lose again.
Stop pushing far right republicans as the dem nominees, regardless of their supposed genitals.
That’s exactly why they would run another woman candidate. You don’t think the dems are trying to win, do you?

Naw Gavin’s career is sunk. That podcast sank him
I’ll believe it when I see it. He’s still got the Getty fortune and the Lib half of California media firmly behind him

The “Fight Oligarchy” rallies and “Hands Off” protests need to get bigger. Then she could be popular enough.
It was quite a blow to my “all humans are inherently good” mindset, I’m now going with “all humans probably have some deeply rooted cultural biases”.
Why the fuck would you have thought this to begin with?

And Biden.
Not 35 years of age or older enough
The law clearly doesn’t matter anymore.
It does for the right/“wrong” people.
If orangeboi runs, Luigi should run.
*Bowser
More like repeat the same action that happened to the CEO of United Healthcare.
Can you imagine?
Orangeboi:
Moderator:
Luigi:
And then everyone clapped
*sigh*
A man can dream.

you mean 75 right?
No
That would be a dream.
Sanders was the compromise choice
