Kamala is a cop. Not excited about this choice in the least.

Still, a shambling corpse and a cop is preferable to Trump/Pence.

I really hope this doesn't lead to our first female president. Getting backdoored by VP pick is a disappointing historic moment.

Yeah, an election between 2 heavily bigoted rapists who want to kill the poor, both with heavily anti-LGBTQ+ VPs who want to kill the poors. I'm feeling like it's an easy choice (for someone the fuck else).

and I don't remember who Clinton's guy was, but he was even less relevant.
I have to laugh at this. Assuming you're serious, maybe you'll kick yourself when you find out, or maybe you'll give yourself a High Five...

I don't even really know what Trump does then, particularly if they don't retake Congress.
I had an awful idea: what if Trump loses in 2020, and then runs in 2024?

Republicans would be sensible and say he lost so they can’t back a loser.

Oh wait I forgot to put I really goddamn hope at the start.

I wonder if he'll live long enough for that, but Trump is evidence that this is an unjust world.  He can somehow live to be as old as he is saying that exercise is bad for you and living off of a diet of Big Macs.

Since Trump and nearly everyone associated with him are naked criminals even by the tenuous standards of US law, the Democrats would have an easy enough way to keep him gone if he loses.

They just have to have the chutzpah to actually start sending big-name Republicans to prison, which they don't. Even California's Top Cop won't be any help in that, since as we all know cops only go after the vulnerable.

Easy: "That was a corrupt election! A lot of very smart people have been saying Democrats used the pandemic to steal the election!"

Cosmic 'fairness' is that everyone Trump ever meets gets Covid, except Trump.

But  we can't discount Covid yet as the actual winner of the 2020 election, there is time.

Imagine if due to 'circumstances' there was a sudden upset and the actual race is Pence vs Harris. It's the kind of thing that would happen, peak 2020. However, if the year doesn't end with Trump sealed in a giant hamster ball to keep disease out I'll be disappoint.

BTW: there's a humungous bikie event in South Dakota, tens of thousands of pro-Trump bikers just milling around with no masks for 10 days.

For some reason, Pence strikes me as the kind of guy to suddenly and unexpectedly have a stroke. If he's half as stressed out as he looks...

I don't believe the parties are actually bound to keep Pence or Harris in the event of Covidbowl, though. They can just appoint whoever they want. Pence is way too 90s Republican, imo.

The DNC will of course appoint David Duke in the spirit of national reconciliation.

I lol’d.

I’m actually looking forward to the VP debate with an angry black woman and a white, male, Christian conservative Republican.

It's going to play out exactly as everyone expects. Harris will be righteously indignant, Pence will be smugly secure. Republicans will view Harris as smug and condescending, Democrats will view Pence as willfully dishonest, also with a heavy dose of smugness.

Vote Smugness in 2020.

Harris will also inexplicably pretend to have a Southern accent again, and spout at least one hashtag.

Nobody will mention that Pence used to be a radio shockjock, even though it is both the perfect way to attack him and about as inverse a personality as you can get from his current philosophical Catholic fascist shtick while still voting Republican.

Also, the debate will happen over a shitty internet connection rather than in person, on a platform that is only in retrospect discovered to be 80% owned by Tencent.
