“While it has been my intention to seek reelection, I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down and to focus solely on fulfilling my duties as president for my term,” Mr. Biden posted in a statement on social media.
Mark Kelly would beat Trump like a rented redheaded stepmule.
Harris… Won’t.
Well, she wouldn’t today. She’s been VP for four years, and aside from her name, race, and gender, she’s still pretty much an unknown. She needs to develop a personality, fast, if she wants to get anywhere.
Mark Kelly has had an extraordinary career. Fighter Pilot, Navy Captain, Astronaut, husband of Gabby Giffords, twin brother of Scott Kelly, who has had an almost identical career. He’s a Blue senator from a Red state; he will steal voters from Trump, turning red states into swing states, and swing states into blue states.
lol no he wouldn’t. If you still hold fantasies that a Dem with a military background is going to outflank Trump for the blue collar white vote then you really haven’t been paying attention.
Which former high ranking military officer and astronaut have the Democrats put on a ballot to test that hypothesis?
Kelly doesn’t have to win the white, blue-collar vote away from Trump. He only has to poach a handful of Trump votes in a few key states.

You think any of that shit matters to the electorate in 2024? He beat a staunch anti-abortion crusader that previously lost to Sinema. Even Kamala could’ve won that one. You spout off his military credentials as if anyone impressed by that will now breathe a sigh of relief because they won’t have to vote to for the man who said rude things about them.
He wasn’t an astronaut but we already tried the military officer bullshit with John Kerry.
‘Who?’
As you edited your comment, I will too.
I know of and respect the man- I am a total NASA fanboy. The issue is he does not have general name recognition and they have very little time to get things out there.
Having a scientist in the White House would be amazing.
Agreed, he does not have general name recognition. But he does have a compelling story for every major news organization to jump on, and information flows faster than it ever has. 2 months and change is plenty enough.
He also has an identical twin with a nearly identical career, effectively giving him the ability to campaign in two places at once.
