    Polling pundit Nate Silver predicts Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) will be the 2028 Democratic presidential nominee.

      I kinda dare them to run Trump against AOC. Too bad our voting machines aren’t open source so they are transparent and Musk will likely control elections going forward.

        Musk will likely control elections going forward

        Elections are run by the states themselves even for federal office. Notable race in particular for Musk was the Wisconsin Supreme Court race earlier this month. Musk poured millions to try to make it go the other way and tried to bribe voters with $1 million lotteries if they “signed a petition against activist judges”. The Musk backed candidate still lost by 10 points

        Don’t do his dirty work for him and suppress the vote before anything happens. The fight ain’t over till it’s over

          The fight isnt over and I truly dont believe this is lasting 4 years in a similar state. He had access to voting machines in the 2024 election. I am positive there are plans to expand that access.

        Trump can’t run again, no matter what they keep saying about it. States control their own elections, and will not allow him on the ballot on the majority of the states because they actually give a shit about the constitution.

          Colorado’s Supreme Court found that he engaged in an insurrection and was therefore ineligible. Then SCOTUS basically said “uh, this gives me the federal feelsies because it’s a federal office, so Congress has to do it”

          Feels like all Congress has to do is say that the first term didn’t count. But to be honest I can see poor health catching up to him first anyway.

          How much you wanna bet they’re gonna do it anyway and red states will go along? Thats four years, though. Might as well be eternity in this climate.

            He literally cannot be President again according to the constitution. They MIGHT try to run someone else with him as VP, then have that person step down, but the Constiris crystal fucking clear on this.

                  Just block and move on. The doomerism is just another form of trolling but you can block the user and it’s like their doomed attitude got sent to El Salvador.

                  I just need you to realize how serious this is. Dont assume just because I’m admitting a deadline means I’m doing nothing. But 4 years is far too late.
