    Juan Guaido has announced that he is interim Democratic Party candidate.

    Either that or Jeb!

        Right? Honestly sickening, like fucking Shia Lebouf licking blood off his face. The man was absolutely gleeful that the candidate that’s supposed to save us all just shit himself on stage. No fake concern, no fake compassion, just a vast shit eating grin. What the fuck?

          Newsom always gave me Patrick Bateman vibes and it’s not just because of a slight physical resemblance.

            Gotta fight psychopaths with psychopaths.

    Ordinarily I’d say that having party elites just select someone would be damaging in the general, but in this case I get the impression there’s a lot of people going like, “please, anyone but these two,” and it’s not like Biden ever had organic support anyway. Honestly I could picture whatever ghoul they’d drag out winning.

      Anyone the Dems pick is objectively going to win the election I think. This is probably the most clear cut road to the presidency I think there has probably ever been in American history except for maybe 2016.

        I googled about the gif. I didn’t think I’d find anything funny but I quickly did. Emphasis mine.

        For the Love of God, Not Everything Is a Deepfake

        Donald Trump retweeted a gif of Joe Biden with his tongue out. No, it’s not a deepfake—or the end of democracy.

        […]

        This isn’t a deepfake. Deepfakes don’t stretch and drag facial features like that. As the watermark shows, this video was made using Muglife, which animates images according to how you distort them with a finger—kind of like stretching and pulling an image in Photoshop, but rendered in gif form.

        Frum didn’t just tweet about the video, he went and turned it into a blog post for the Atlantic, warning about the dangerous precedent set by Trump sharing a video that has been altered to show his competitor… with a cartoonish tongue.

    The sitcom clause applies, Hunter Biden and Baron Trump share the office.

      “Hunter, you’re my best bud.”

      “Baron, you’re my best bud.”

      “Best buds forever.”

      “Yeah.”

      “Yeah.”

      Cue theme music.

      I think if both Trump and Hunter go to jail, they should put them in the same cell and make it a reality show. At minimum, it would be funny, but maybe it will work to close the divide in the country. I mean, if Hunter saves his cell mate from getting shanked, it could cause the Trumpets to see the libs in a new light. Lol

      I hate this choice the most so it will happen. He would honestly probably lose worse the a Biden corpse.

      I think Butteregg could still lose this. He’s such a milqutoast weasely little shit he wouldn’t motivate anyone, and I could see him losing a bunch of the old racist bigots who liked Joe because Joe hated black people and women. Plus he’s gay, which would lose him even more people.

      I think if the Democrats swapped him in, this whole thing could get way trashier.

      Hunter Biden appoints Stephanie Clifford as his running mate, then challenges Trump to a literal dick measuring contest.

      If we’re not going to have good governance and the whole world is going to laugh at the U.S., we might as well find a way to laugh with them.
