He would not run in 2024. That has succeeded only once in history. By then new faces will have emerged. The President is a fink. |

Without putting a hard cap on age, I think Biden and trump are both too old. It is more about their apparent health than their age, thought, which is why I wouldn't necessarily suggest a number for an age cap. There are jobs have them, though.

| Pacomartin Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 1068 Posts: 12569 | I am trying to think how many times the same two candidates ran against each other in back to back elections Grover Cleveland (Democratic) and Benjamin Harrison (Republican) 1888-1892 - candidates won 1 race apiece Dwight D. Eisenhower (Republican) and Adlai Stevenson (Democratic) 1952-1956 - Eisenhower won both races After Grant served his second term the following five elections were very close in popular vote 1876 Republican beat Democratic 47.9% - 50.9% while losing popular vote 1880 Republican beat Democratic 48.32% - 48.21% 1884 Grover Cleveland (Democratic) beat James G. Blaine (Republican) | Evote 219 - 182 | States 20- 18 | 48.85% - 48.28% 1888 Benjamin Harrison (Republican) beat Grover Cleveland (Democratic) | Evote 233 - 168 | States 20 - 18 | 47.8% - 48.6% 1892 Grover Cleveland (Democratic) beat Benjamin Harrison (Republican) | Evote 277-145-22 | States 23 -16 -5 46.0% - 43.0% - 8.5% A strong 3rd party candidate in 1892 probably made the difference
Yes, I think his ego is limitless. Now whether people will accept him is another story. |

Nikki Haley would be a formidable general election candidate. But she would NEVER come out of a GOP primary on top. NEVER. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

There is no doubt his base would support him regardless of his condition. Its enough to dominate the republican party. Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

| Shrek Member since: Aug 13, 2019 Threads: 6 Posts: 1635 | If DEMocRATS steal this election, it would be AWESOME if Trump ran again in 2024!! That would show the world that Good (i.e., conservatives) always wins over Evil (i.e., libbies). 👍👍 |

Fingers crossed! (In regards time him running again. Dems aren’t stealing anything, that’s just rightie nonsense to explain away Donny’s unpopularity). “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

Why do you think that? I think they could coalesce behind a candidate that does not represent all their views that could win... Oh wait, they did that in 2016!!! |

Because she’s not crazy enough. She’s more of a “moderate” republican. Not the kind of candidate that GOP primary voters go for. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |
