Biden wont go, and he can’t be pushed.
July 5, 2024 at 04:06 #1700760July 5, 2024 at 16:30 #1700812Latest Biden moment on a local Philadelphia radio station:
“By the way, I’m proud to be, as I said, the first vice president, first Black woman… to serve with a Black president”
July 11, 2024 at 23:11 #1701521Another Biden brain fade.
Calling Zalenskyy “Putin”.
Biden will resign before the end of the week.
Value Is EverythingJuly 11, 2024 at 23:47 #1701524Why doesn’t George Clooney stand? I’ve always believed that that was his long term plan. I mean he even married a lawyer instead of an actress or model. He needs to bring his plan forward a few more years. Trump wouldn’t stand a chance against him. C’mon George. The world needs you….
July 12, 2024 at 00:13 #1701526Harris now odds-on to be the Democrats nominee for the election.
Value Is EverythingJuly 12, 2024 at 00:27 #1701553If Biden insists on being the Democratic nominee you could see someone entering the contest as a third candidate. Not Republican or Democrat. An “I’m not Trump or Biden” candidate. That would be the only way Clooney could run in 2024, Moehat. But he is instinctively a Democrat, so I doubt he’d want to stand against the Democrats. I did hear the Clooney letter was actually partly written by an old Obama speech writer. So it is possible Obama now believes Biden should step down.
Value Is EverythingJuly 12, 2024 at 00:41 #1701555Was it my imagination or did he just call Harris “Trump”?
Value Is EverythingJuly 12, 2024 at 07:39 #1701563“Why doesn’t George Clooney stand?”
Because he would probably lose and risk damaging Brand Clooney. A lot of these movie stars and rock stars are nowhere near as popular as the media and themselves would have us believe, especially when they start lecturing us about politics. To be fair to Clooney, I think we is wise enough to realise.
As the great Alice Cooper put it after the 2004 Presidential Election between George W Bush and John Kerry, after plenty of musicians made a song and dance about supporting Kerry: “If I wasn’t already a Bush supporter, I would have immediately switched. Linda Ronstadt? Don Henley? Geez, that’s a good reason right there to vote for Bush.”
July 12, 2024 at 07:39 #1701564“I could see someone entering the contest as a third candidate.”
Isn’t Robert Kennedy still a candidate?
July 12, 2024 at 08:28 #1701569“Another Biden brain fade.
Calling Zalenskyy ‘Putin’.”
July 12, 2024 at 17:59 #1701618I think what could work would be a duo Michelle Obama/George Clooney. Don’t forget there is a long-standing friendship between the two families. This could be what the US really needs to wake up and leave that “old white man” trauma behind.
July 13, 2024 at 07:03 #1701684C’mon folks, Trump would be a laugh.
The last three and a half years have been dead boring in the US up to the 4 years previous when Trump was ibn charge.
July 13, 2024 at 07:35 #1701688George Clooney is 63, so he’s no spring chicken. And Michelle Obama is 60.
July 13, 2024 at 12:54 #170174860-odd is hardly old…so I keep telling myself
Of post-war presidents who were 60+ when first being elected, Truman was 61, Eisenhower 63, Ford 61, Reagan 70, Bush Snr. 65, Trump 71 & Biden 78
And of our lot, Attlee was 62, Churchill 77, MacMillan 63, Douglas-Home 60, Callaghan 64 & May 60
July 13, 2024 at 17:50 #1701794It’s actually terrifying how poor the state of politics is in the US
July 13, 2024 at 20:06 #1701800“And of our lot, Attlee was 62, Churchill 77, MacMillan 63, Douglas-Home 60, Callaghan 64 & May 60”.
Starmer is 61.
