Data shows the performance of the stock market is really not all that dependent on which party is in control of the White House.
On average markets, gdp, unemployment, inflation have fared better with a Dem in the WH going back to Eisenhower so statistically they were dude a dud.
Exactly. Though, Id agree Rolling Stone isn’t exactly credible and earned skepticism based on their reporting.
I would put money on him losing GOP primary, and then running as a 3rd party in general election to siphon off MAGA votes from GOP as a revenge play.
the GOP knows this is exactly what he will do. which is why he will be running unopposed.
It’s dangerous NOW because of a lack of leadership on the world stage by Biden. You’re fighting a losing battle here. I will either vote 3rd party or leave president blank if it’s Trump, Team Blue isn’t even a consideration. When 98% of the ballots will vote for team red or team blue in the next election, choose your death.
Vegas rules doesn’t allow election gambling, offshore has it. There is probably field bets only at this time.
For the record, I'm hoping neither Biden nor Trump run in 2024. But this post certainly gives off "don't make me punch you in the face" vibes, as if one seemingly can't control their own actions. In other words, it's not "Team Blue's" fault when Republicans nominate and vote for Trump. That's on Republicans. Not sure why it keeps coming back to this point.
Team Blue is fighting the losing battle as they will pay in November. I can’t get mad at a poster with a Rush reference.
Agreed, I'm just hoping it's to someone other than Donald Trump, that's all. Heck, if it's someone other than Trump I'm likely going to vote for that person.
If you're that concerned, why not register as a GOP and vote in the primary yourself?
I have already stated in another thread that if Trump announces he is running then I will do so.
I’m not saying that if it has unnamed sources it should automatically be believed. But it also shouldn’t automatically be dismissed. Unnamed sources have been a staple of journalism from the beginning.
I’m voting DeSantis if he’s running. The last two was Kasich, can’t remember the other but it wasn’t Trump.
Yeah I would think that DeSantis ill be Trump's biggest challenger so he would get my vote in the GOP primaries if they both run.
It's strange to say this because the 2020 election wasn't even two full years ago. But this was 100% exactly my view on the Democratic primaries back then, and it's quickly shaping up into my view of the Republican primaries this time around. I wanted Biden to get the D nod because I thought he was the normiest of the norm-restoring candidates in the field, so when the Democrats actually nominated him, I felt obliged to vote for him. Now I'm just looking for somebody who doesn't have to worry about sundowning and will respect the peaceful transfer of power. I can't believe those are the criteria I have to apply to evaluate candidates these days, but here we are.
Have to wonder how much cable news and SM have to do with candidates, why so few younger options.
If I am DeSantis I would not be Trump's running mate after seeing how Mike Pence was treated.
Yup. Don't understand how anyone would, the way he discards anyone who looks crossways at him.
True...but again for me it just goes to what the site/source is vs. named and unnamed. Credible sources using unnamed sources don't bother me much. Rolling Stone, Vox, Gateway Pundit, Redstate...much more apt to dismiss it all together til someone credible backs it up.
Rolling Stone is a highly partisan news source. Few if any will argue that. But to compare it to GP or Redstate is nonsense. Mother Jones might be a good comparison. You'll get legit reporting of facts with a very liberal slant. Neither of them is making #### up out of whole cloth like the Pundit.
probably should be in the media thread but I'm curious what these unnamed sources have uncovered that have been proven to be true over say the last 6 years. or on the other spectrum what has been pure hogwash?
Ah, yeah, no. As you’re making the hogwash claim and dismissing a standard journalism practice that seems like right up your alley.

This is exactly what's going to happen.
Rolling Stone has been liberal from day one, they don’t hide it.https://www.allsides.com/news-source/rolling-stone
This train will be off the tracks well before the election I know dozens of his most die hard supporters who don't want him to run.Just here to watch liberalas this progresses.
This dynamic was painfully obvious to any rationale human paying attention before he was even a candidate. Any rubes that fell for the bait the first time around - here's your sign
