If they don’t pick Mark Kelly, former astronaut, for VP then they’ve massively f**ked up. Guy would embarrass Vance in a debate and seems perfect in every way. Wife even survived getting shot point blank in the head so perfect guy for gun reform too. 

Yeah I think it's going to be a toss up between Shapiro and Kelly to be honest. Both representing key states that they will most likely need.

you know when they are likely to choose? Has Harris been officially confirmed as the presidential candidate yet?

There is a vetting process on the VP picks that usually takes months by all accounts but I believe they are accelerating it no doubt hoping to have it wrapped up by the DNC.

 

Kamala isn't officially the presumptive nominee yet although she has enough support so it sounds like she's pretty much nailed in. I'm not 100% sure but I think they need to confirm their nominee before the 7th August so would expect it to become official within the next week or so.

Hilariously, Elon has already bailed on his $45 million a month pledge to the Trump campaign now that the tables have turned and it looks like he might lose. Such a show of confidence.

I’m amazed Liz Truss talks about “caring if they can do a job” while keeping a straight face.

Love that Kamala’s social media team is just going in on Trump. No more ‘going high when they go low’, just calling him out for the pathetic loser he is. Hope it continues and continues to escalate as the campaign goes on because you just know it’s absolutely getting under his skin and will cause him to get increasingly more unhinged. 
 

Also can’t get enough of the Vance / Couch stuff - so silly but just endless possibilities and also completely neuters him as any sort of threat. Great work.

It definitely gets under his skin, he’s quoting Rasmussen polls this morning.😂

 

The worry with Kamala is that it’s a honeymoon period and things will quieten down but they need to keep their foot on the pedal and continue the pressure.

she has to win.

You know I was born in US, but..but British/Australian parents, and brought over here when I was about one, so never had a US passport but my Dad later became an American citizen. So, maybe I could still become a US citizen, infact I think I can...might do it just so I can be that one vote that wins it for Kamala.

Actually, could I vote? Or do I need to go live there? Could get complicated.

Not sure that is realistic given the timescale, so I was thinking maybe the top job in 2028?

You mean a world leader/vice who spends half their life posting on social media - how would that ever work 😉

👏regrettably out of the upvotes that this deserves.
