I don’t want him killed!!

Both Trump/Vance are our best chance at getting Harris/Walz elected.

I’m just wondering what options/actions the Republicans would take if Trump dies before voting day.

    I also want to absolutely clarify that I’m not in favor of assassination but… this is a terrible argument. I’d much rather it was Harris/Walz vs. like… Romney/McCain or some other more boring corporate focused GOP folks. Trump is uniquely able to destroy our cultural norms and usher in really fucking heinous policies in a way we haven’t seen before so it’d be excellent if he wasn’t even on the ticket.

      I mean, sure but Dems only really have a chance because Republicans continue to run the shuttiest candidates imaginable. That is absolutely true

      Like, Obama won partly because McCain chose to run with Palin. It’s not the only reason he won, but it’s silly to think it wasn’t a major factor - especially considering everything we know about white American voters, that’s been made just as clear as it ever could be. I bet it was a tough decision for some/many Americans

      I’ve always wished I could feel like the choice in a general election was a hard decision, but alas I’m working class and brown (and believe in science)
