If you think Trump would stand aside for someone younger, then you're not living in the real world

Trump cannot be "replaced " by anyone.. the point is not to be a president to help people.. the point of his candidacy is to avoid going to prison .. how can a person in that situation possibly agree to be "replaced"???

I belive has not grown up from his school bullying days . I believe his mind is simple and transactional as a child. However i believe he is facing a lot of criminal charges, so he wil never step down no matter what.

I will vote for the prosecutor, not the prosecuted felon. Trump is yesterday's child, not tomorrows man.

When he told that crowd at some Christian thing, that if they vote for him and he wins, they'll never have to vote again, that the fix will be in! That is terrifying as an American!

Trump makes Biden’s age as an issue for the media to focus on. Now that Biden has withdrawn from the race. Let’s turn the focus on Trump’s age.

Don't underestimate Donald Trump: He will go to any length to hold onto power. He would rather incite another insurrection with his MAGA supporters than stand down to someone younger. Imagine JD 'Shjady' Vance taking over.. 🤣

Trump is now the oldest nominee in American history and yesterdays loser
-
There is new hard-hitting Lincoln Project ad, taking derogatory and derisive comments from Fox News presenters about Biden’s missteps and senior moments, but cutting them to make it appear that the comments were directed at Trump’s gaffs and inanities.

Trump has often said he's as sharp as a tack, and that no shark will ever attack him.

Mr. Trump better watch his back with a VP like this Vance... he was pushed forward for a reason...

I'd vote for a box of Jello before I'd vote for an orange road cone with delusions of grandeur.
-
Bidens timing was spot on. Trump randomly picked Vance, because he felt that ultimately, it didn't matter. Now, however...

Trump would not be replaced as he would have to to leave by being dragged kicking and screaming then start a new new party as him as leader which he has threatened before.
-
Trump's just a simplistic deal maker who spouts bile.

A narcissist will never give in.

Polls put her at evens, up to 4% behind, or even slightly ahead... so not "massively behind". She also has an upward poll trend (in less than a week) while Trump is static or slightly declining. The polls are very good - considering...

We're not going back

In politics throughout the developed world, ad hominem attacks are considered more acceptable than in the past because more people are angry and unwilling to consider rational arguments. This is due to falling standards of living and education, both caused by neoliberal financial-economic policies -- trickle-down economics -- that we've subjected our societies to for the last 40 odd years, resulting in appalling levels of income inequality. So now when politicians connect to wider audiences, it's no wonder that hateful emotional appeals are so common.

Nonsense. He'd rather set fie to the White House and tear it down brick by brick than be dragged screaming from running.
