I’ve seen some random videos of Tucker saying that suicides are way up, economy is way down, addiction and crime are rampant and the cost of living is insanity where nobody can really thrive in this environment.

On the otherside, inflation is slowing, people are working and it feels we’re slowly getting back to some normalcy.

What’s your personal perspective on how life is right now/since 2020? Is that the biggest factor for determining who you will vote for in 2024?

    I believe he’s 2nd in the nomination race for democrats.

    I understand it’s unusual and you think it may not count. You’re being rude doesn’t change that he is.

          You believe RFK Jr has the same chance at the democratic nomination as Obama did in 2011, when he was the incumbent… Wow…

          You should check how many times in US history an incumbent presidential candidate has not won their party’s primary.

              There wasn’t an incumbent Democrat in the oval office in 2007.

              Again - you should check how many times in US history an incumbent presidential candidate has not won their party’s primary.

                I don’t care if there was an incumbent or not. The chances were extremely small, everyone thought hilary had it in the bag.

                Again - you should check how many times in US history an incumbent presidential candidate has not won their party’s primary.

                I believe twice.

                Who cares? And at this point in time especially, nobody is excited for a run off the same as 2020. You’re telling me now ISNT the time for another democratic candidate to try to run for something they believe in?

                Let me guess, you’re gonna bitch about how we had no other choice behind biden this election, but you’re sitting here arguing against challengers to biden. I want democracy, I don’t want the RNC and DNC choosing 1 candidate for me to pick, you’re furthering the motivations of the establishments of the two parties.

                I disagree with you.

                  Doesn’t matter if you care. The fact that there’s an incumbent in office means they win their primary by default. Did you really just now learn that’s how it works?

                    their primary by default. Did you really just now learn that’s how it works?

                    Maybe this is news to you - but that’s not how it works. There’s still a run off for the democratic candidate. You do know that Reagan ran against an incumbent, right? He’s one of a few.
