MichiganCardinal

Based on this, I think it's going to get done within the week. More likely he doesn't want to risk a freak injury occurring and costing him tens of millions. I agree though that anything bad for the Packers is good for us. I hope talks deteriorate. I'll also lol if Love gets more money than Goff.

It would be shockingly delusional, even for them, if they thought this was true. The election was going to be won - by either side - by <3% in about five states. That was the case Saturday and it's still the case today. Kamala has a better chance of accidentally flipping Texas than Trump ever has of a 2008 looking map.

It'll be a double standard though. Just like it was in 2016 and 2020. Trump can grab them by the pussy, Harris will be expected to be perfect.

Harris had issues with work environment earlier in Biden's term IIRC. It was mostly just tabloid fodder for the NY Post and Daily Mail, and it went away in time, but this could come up in the next three months. Politico, BBC.

Last night he called it a "two-man race" (intentionally a slight at Harris) and said he was the only candidate who could beat Trump. So I doubt it.

Well as long as we are withdrawing from jobs were weren't being considered for, I guess I will too. MichiganCardinal will not be serving as Harris' Secretary of State.

CBS had one of Trump's sycophants on yesterday. I was only watching casually so I can't remember who it was, but I thought CBS did a decent job of calling out the BS. The Trump campaign person called Kamala the "border czar" and the CBS interviewer countered with the statistics that show the fewest illegal border crossings in three years. She responded with "well that's just not how any American feels right now" What happened to facts over feelings?!?

It’s possible there is more than meets the eye, but my guess is that he probably didn’t expect a consensus to be reached as quickly as one was. Everything moved pretty quickly. I’d guess if he’d known that Dems would settle on Harris within an hour, he’d have crafted the statement differently. It would be silly to release a second statement today. He’ll campaign for her I’m sure.

I wonder what polling suggests about a Harris-Romney ticket. I can’t imagine it would ever happen (Mitt’s been around long enough to know what a VP actually does and likely doesn’t want the job), and with the nature of the Senate you could be sacrificing a needed tiebreaker to the Rs. But I have to imagine it would attract some number of NeverTrump conservatives.

Going from chaos to unifying around Kamala in one afternoon is either the best or second best thing the Democratic Party could have done. The other is not creating the chaos in the first place.

Not debating doesn't serve Trump well. She'll likely do something like this, or a town hall, and excel in that forum.

Nailed it.

I wouldn't be surprised if Trump refuses to debate Kamala. "Agreed to debate Biden not a delegitimate candidate". Or refuses to debate "until Biden resigns", as if that would happen.

I don't think Kwame Kilpatrick is doing anything currently. Counter the felon vote that Trump is bringing in.

Biden should just completely ignore them. Let them campaign against Biden, who cares.

Gary Peters probably shouldn't be overlooked. Military background and he knows how to win in Oakland and Macomb Counties.

Didn't they just go back to the well with birtherism?

Roy Cooper screams Tim Kaine to me.

With Joe immediately endorsing Kamala, it would be hard for the elites to bully another onto the ticket over her. Not impossible though. Harris / Buttigieg is probably my top choice right now... Harris / Shapiro is another option.... Harris / Romney would be fascinating, though I think it's probably too far fetched (and I don't think Mitten would want the job). If she's not on the ticket, I would think it's Whitmer, with one of Wes Moore, Stacey Abrams, or Raphael Warnock.

Biden is not the greatest President of our lives. He has done a good job, but Obama was better. Clinton was probably better too. Biden did a good job rebuilding structures and the sense of an adult being in charge that was destroyed during Trump. But he was brought in to be vanilla and not worry people about where the nuclear football was located at any given moment. He succeeded at that, but not much else.

Jimmy Carter only served one term. Still eligible.

I would love this. A lot of people thought when Sewell was drafted it meant the end of Decker in Detroit. Holmes being like "lol why though we need two starting tackles" is probably one of his smartest moves.

Ultimately the Secret Service reports to the Department of Homeland Security, who reports to the President. The findings of any investigation, including the cause of any injury to Trump (glass or bullet) are not Trump's decision whether to release. His medical records probably are. There are also congressional investigations that have been launched that are going to be public.
