    And who realistically is a better choice at this point? I can’t think of a single other Democrat with the recognition to pull a presidential campaign together in 3 months.

      The only person I have heard that even remotely has a chance of being the pick instead of Harris is Gavin Newsom and he both doesn’t seem to want it and also polls really badly against Trump.

        Yeah, he’s widely known outside of California, but largely because he’s a massive punching bag for conservatives. Not a good pick for a presidential race.

          I think Gavin Newsom will be a very strong candidate if he had time to prime the pump. Which is I imagine what he was planning to do in 2028. A shorter, if we can call four months short good Lord, campaign is not in his favor.
