It would be merely amusing, or maybe pitiful if it was only going to affect the US. But Trump is a loose cannon and could make the world an even more dangerous place than it is already.
On my headstone it will say: Please switch off mobile phones. I'm trying to get some sleep.

If the Democrats choose her, they will lose and if they don't know it, they are stupider than I thought.

No question about it. And I've said all along, one of the first things he will do is remove term limits. King he will be. Constitution be damned.

Just like the Russian and the Turkish leaders. Still, those countries voted for those leaders, as the US will no doubt vote for Trump. In getting the leader they vote for and deserve, it could have consequences for the rest of the world.

So many politicians today seem to pay lip service to doing things for the good of the country when they are simply feathering their own nests. It's more about power than anything else.

It will be interesting to see what Elon Musk does in all this. He's openly supporting the Republicans (with all his money, no problem getting US citizenship) and will no doubt get more involved in politics .... money and power .....

Don't forget, Trump will be older at the start of any next term than Biden was at the start of this term (the age difference is 3y 7m) . . . and look what happened there.

And I think the Democrats have known this for a LONG time. They are fools for allowing him to continue. He is a fool for not stepping down and a traitor to the U.S.A., knowing full well what this leaves the U.S. with. He is being managed by someone or more than someone and you have to wonder what their actual goal is. There is no way on earth he will win.

That is a norm. Think Reagan.
Better think Kennedy.

I thought Kennedy's brain issues were caused by a bullet, not a medical decline.

But who should they choose instead? I admit to not following US politics in any detail but beyond Biden and KH, I doubt I could even give you another democrat potential candidate.

And then there is the question of would they stand. Biden has bowed out far too late. There is little chance for a democrat candidate to create the necessary campaign umph before the polls and if you lose this time to Trump, you are marked in the minds of the electorate as a looser and so damage you chances in 4 years time. Now if there were a charismatic Kennedy with a clean record that could be reeled in, there might just be a chance. Otherwise it is Trump.

IMO, their best bet would be Michelle Obama. However, she too would have a hard time beating Trump, but she is the ONLY one that I think can rally a BIG set of voters to her side. As said, at this late stage, it will be very difficult for anyone to drum up enough support and make their case/campaign heard. They can thank themselves for this dilemma. Unfortunately, the entire world will suffer for their selfish stupidity.
