Here's the "health issue" next comes the ending of the re-election. I really thought the cycle would have been a little slower.

The DNC is planning of formally nominating the democratic ticket on August 5, which does not leave much time to pick a replacement (even if the replacement is vice president Harris).

The August 5 date was picked back when everyone thought the nomination was a mere formality, in order to comply with an August 7 deadline from Ohio. Ohio, for its part, has pushed the deadline back to September, but I don't think the DNC wants to risk a ballot challenge making it's way to the Supreme Court.

Whoa, this Arock Bonana fella came out of nowhere, and he seems pretty cool. Have you heard him speak in coherent sentences? I think his brain might be undamaged!

I think we should invest more into the nuclear power plant.

even if the replacement is vice president Harri

I know that's who it would be, but I'd still be majorly disappointed.

Fuck at least she doesn't have dimensia and can go head to head with Vance in a debate.....now who the potential VP is could sink her majorly.

They have to speed the fuck up. Compared to most other countries, US election campaigns take forever
