Title: Republican Party, Democratic Party, Birthday Party
Post by: Ben on July 08, 2020, 09:44:17 AM
It's a birthday party! Brought to you by Kanye West, with an assist from Elon Musk.

2020 is off the track, man.

I am not sure I agree.  He is a wild card.  He might be better than Biden simply because I don't know if he would be corrupt where I know Biden would be.  Potentially worse because I have no idea what he thinks about politics or who would be his advisors.  I generally know what to expect with Trump (partially) and the by extension that the left will oppose whatever that is.

The only question is who he'll skim more votes away from - if he manages to get on the ballot anywhere...

I got a few months to decide between West or Jorgensen.

I don't know the voting laws of all states but most allow a write in. If he spends enough of his and her billions he might get more than Perot.

2020 YHGTBSM. Maybe I should run on that.

Looks like he's got a shot at getting on in Wisconsin, with help from the GOP.

I'm not convinced he would take more voters from Biden than he would from Trump, but I guess they are.
