Good grief

 

Please don´t tell me the Dems are seriously contemplating nominating Kamala Harris *again*?! 

I have no particular horse in this race (OK, maybe a cute little pony), but if anybody over there wants my advice, I would say that the "best" Dem ticket would be Newsom-Shapiro, while the "best" GOP ticket would be Haley-Rubio. Best from a European perspective, at least. In the long run, we´ll all be dead! 

But surely nobody thinks Harris can defeat Vance? Although I suppose there is a slight chance, since Vance - after all - is no Trump. But that can be remedied by the neo-GOP very explicitly making Vance the constitutional place holder for Trump (or Trump jr).

The Coming Coup

 

- Yes, he said "collapse now and avoid the rush"!

It´s been...a strange week. With weird synchronicities (for lack of a better word). And no, I probably won´t tell you! 

So I recently got the feeling that we´re heading for some kind of final confrontation in the United States. I could be wrong, obviously. I don´t claim precognitive powers! But there is something in the air. A collapse? A coup? I mean, has anything *really* gotten better (no matter what you mean by that term!) during 2025? 

But I´ve been wrong about "apocalyptic" predictions before, so maybe we´ll all live to see the Vance-Newsom apocalypse in 2028...  

Dark Woke

 

Next Dem nominee? 

A lot of strange Gavin Newsom memes on social media right now, half of them probably posted by Newsom himself. The one´s that are not...well, trolls love to point out that Newsom´s entire family is White, while J D Vance´s is mixed race. They also dub the California governor "Dark Woke" and say he is on a mission from Dark Brandon (Biden) to avenge Hunter?! And so on.

Translation: the next US presidential election will be between...you guessed it...Newsom and Vance. 

In other news, Trump is apparently trying to arrest and prosecute John Bolton. Strangely enough, while flip-flopping on Ukraine...again. In a seemingly more Boltonite direction! 

If this continues, the next presidential shake-up might be much closer than 2028. 

Electable

 

It seems Gavin Newsom wants to become the Democratic nominee in 2028. He wants to win, too! Interesting, I suppose...  

Liberals torch "trash" Gavin Newsom, etc
