Ain't no damn way. It better be a Wes Moore/Josh Shapiro ticket or, mark my words, we'll be living under President Vance.
Maybe related, maybe not: My wife saw I had sugar on the grocery list and looked in the pantry. "Did you mean to put sugar on the list? We have like ____ bags in here." I just gave her a look. She understood.
Yeah, and no queers, either! I'm only partially joking. There's been a bunch of talk lately about 2028 (wait for the mid-terms first, goddammit... That's where the energy needs to go right now), and I see Mayor Pete's name thrown around a lot. If they try running that guy, there goes your minority vote. Black, Muslim, HISPANIC; they are NOT voting for a gay man. Even if he's only VP. They either stay home*, or vote for the Republican candidate, whether it's Trump again, or someone else (I kinda don't think Vance will be the candidate in '28, but what do I know.). Of course, this all assumes that the Democrats aren't a "controlled opposition" party working for the same people as the GQP. As time goes on, they become less credible to me. Just look at how the Dems have fumbled again and again in Texas. I can elaborate on this if you want. This message brought to you by a straight white guy who has lived around Mexican-Americans for 40+ years**. *Think of all those "Free Palestine!" people who didn't vote Kamala, and tried to convince everyone else they knew to do the same. **God damn, I feel old saying that.
