    I don’t think they’ll have the same enthusiasm again.

    If Trump runs again (and I don’t think he will), he might win again. However, he’s going to be stained a ton during these next 4 years, and likely by many in the GOP. If he wins the primary, he’ll lose the election...Dems will come out in force again if he runs.

    His kids have no chance...none have the energy or charisma to do it again. Ivanka would be the only chance, but she’s not a Republican...white men won’t support her enough.

    I'm actually trying not to suspect this. Something's going on there. Supposedly the HMFIC of elections there, his family is afraid for his life; or is that smokescreen of some kind? Hell, Nevada basically has two good-sized cities, a sprinkling of smaller cities, and a large swath of desert where they conducted nuclear testing.

    Count the ******* votes.

    hispanics and blacks like the manly guy type. obama was a sharp manly type..call it swag. bill clinton had it too.

    they care about race and issues sure but blacks will let trump be white supremacist. hispanics will let trump be racist in how talk about them...
    why? because hispanics think they arent brown or not them and think they are rich when up to eyeball in debt. welcome to usa look at the hispanic demographic at gallery furniture paying 29.9 % washing dishes..these guys think they made it. tony montana in miami knows trump hates him but you think he will vote for a p***y like biden?

    same for black vote they even probably think he is a bit*ch for sucking up to kamala..

    "entrepreneur" , tough alpha business guy. somehow that supercedes white power and zero action or care for blacks past pandering.
    and at same time call it pandering by biden to bring on a black chick but hes actually choosing a black lady ..and somehow it still makes him a weak bi*tch...yeah i know it makes no sense but aint voting for no bi*tch!!

    So let me get this straight: It's all razor thin margins in all the important states thanks to the people Biden didn't campaign for. Blacks and Latinos? Imagine if Bidien didn't take Latino and Black people for granted; he would have won on night one. You wrote all this to tell me that Biden is going to eek out a win because black people hate a racist president and dying of Covid instead of Biden giving them something to vote for? thanks.

    Black support down. Latino support down. despite overwhelming turn out, Biden is underperforming in the places that were easy wins.

    Abrams is more important on the ground than as VP? Don't presidents pick a VP to help in areas they are poor in?

    So it seems the better you spoke they would have pegged you for a latte liberal?

    The only tactical mistake that seems obvious now was not investing more in Georgia vs. Florida -. Georgia is cheaper, closer and has 2 Senate seats - Florida was the same old mirage again.

    ^Nothing to see here folks, just another jilted berniebro saying that Joe Biden can't attract black voters - basically what everybody is talking about today!

    I agree. I don't think Trump can win in 2024, not the actual election. The GOP will know this but they are open about their primaries and take pride in letting anyone run...so I agree he'll be stained by both sides enough in 4 years, but that primary...GOP will do all they can to prevent him from entering I would guess. Fox News will turn on him certainly.

    And yeah, I think Ivanka has the best chance because she's the sanest of them all and maybe with a strong VP like Tim Scott she could make a good run at it, other than that...I hope we're done with this family.

    Imagining anyone from that family running again, actually disgusts me. I dont think she has the uhh...Charisma her father does to gather support at her rallies.

    Weird, all of it. When I moved back to Texas from Iowa (10th grade): "We have a new student, tell us about yourself." And I did, talk talk talk. Everyone was STARING at me, kids turned around in their desks. The teacher was frowning. When I finished, the teacher asked, "Michael, where did you go to school before now?" Some kid piped in, "Harvard." Big laughs.

    But I digress. Has Trump lost yet?

    I don't think he'll go away. He'll continue to hold rallies and tweet and show up on Hannity. All that stuff. I think he'll remain a relevant political figure for Republicans. If he doesn't himself run, the candidates that do run will seek his endorsement.

    Bingo!

    I think this is what has been missed, blacks and latino men are the ones who are hurting the most from covid and they are the ones who usually don't listen to doctors and feel indestructible, of course a 2nd round os closings would be an important issue for them.

    Good **** Bobby.

    black or hispanic people arent stupid for liking racists. its just they value more the strong swaggy manly type.

    even though we all know ironically trump is biggest puss ever biden is like jimmy carter..mister nice guy.

    in a preference world blacks and most certainly hispanics arent going to care about racist stuff if their guy is tough macho guy.

    its simple ..if we are talking florida and apparently we are you need to ask yourself who would tony montana in miami vote for?
    obama? yup. bill clinton? yup.
    gw bush? yup. biden? ya right?
    marlboro man? yup

    If Ivanka wants the presidency, she should turn Dem, go back to NY, and try for a House or Senate seat. Give her 6-8 years and she might be decent enough to run for President on the Dem side. She can’t run without political experience on the left...Dems won’t go for it.

    No chance on the right because they won’t vote for a female Prez, especially not one that isn’t tough...and she’s not.

    Would be hilarious to see Don Jr himself out on the campaign trail...dude would overdose or quit before the primary. Eric, lord, that boy would get eaten alive trying to run for office.

    same...I’m not worried about any of them other than Donald Trump Sr.

    Trump Jr has the swag and charisma of a mannequin...they come nowhere near their father when it comes to gravitas

    Looks like we won't find out about Georgia until tomorrow. Chatham County (Savannah) and Gwinnet County (Atlanta suburbs) won't get their counts done until tomorrow. So everyone take a breath and stop refreshing Georgia results until tomorrow.

    I'm guessing there won't be much of a primary in 24. And if your party doesn't want the person you picked as VP to be the nominee, that's not a good look.
