Actual alternatives to Trump? (lemmy.world)

Assuming Trump is legally removed from running for president under the 14th Ammendment, who even can fill his shoes?

All other potential candidates from the GOP Primary Debate are terrible at economics, optics or both. No one seems really electable, so what now? Switching to blue? Not voting at all? Vote third party? Retry Jan6?

From what I see, voting red is just not a solid choice if Trump is gone.

An unproven model that is risky. If they really wanted to show it works, raise taxes and fund both.

It isn't unproven, and the second wouldn't make conservatives happy anyways so I'm not sure why you're suggesting it.

And again, the majority of democrats never supported this.

No democrats are not better with economics

They are.

Women should have the right to compete against other females in sports and shouldn’t be subjected to undressing in front of trans women.

Trans rights doesn't exclude this first bit, and dressing rooms should be private. This isn't hard.

She’s entitled to her opinion as a feminist.

She is a self described TERF, aka a bigot.

It’s highly unproven.

In the large cities, it’s mainly democrats. They don’t need to make conservatives happy. They need to make their base happy.

I live in a larger city but it’s fairly conservative. We fund our police.

The economy is a lumbering thing. It’s hard to give credit to anyone during their term. It takes years for change to work through the system.

The only democrat to have democrat to show good financial sense was Clinton.

GDP growth is often tied to excessive government spending and borrowing. Watch the deficit grow next Biden and Obama. Stealing the children’s future isn’t good spending

She’s a terf because of the term feminist. She isn’t bigoted. She just doesn’t seem a trans woman and a biological woman as the same. Her articles are interesting read. My best friend is trans. My gf doesn’t feel comfortable with trans women in her safe spaces. As a man, I think this is an issue with women to solve. I think they need to come to a solution.
