Crazy, only half-serious prediction for Presidential Election 2024

Democratic Party

Joe Biden/Kamala Harris


Republican Party

Ted Cruz/Josh Hawley (a nightmare scenario)


New Republican Party "of conscience and the Rule of Law"

Mitt Romney/Nikki Haley or maybe Romney/Sasse or Haley/Sasse


What do you think the Presidential Election in 2024 is going to look like?

Some crazy things could happen. I don't see how a Republican split doesn't turn into a great thing for us, though. But maybe I'm missing something.

He is extremely crafty and wily. He is a man with a plan. He’s keeping his powder dry for now.

Pompeo would have been next in line to the presidency at that point.
Think about that.

... Republican candidates will need to decide if they want to lose because they don't support Trumpism, or lose because they do.

Both of those are options. My hope is that 2024 closely resembles 1984. I expect the Republicans to choose their last VP (just as we chose Mondale) and a “flash” candidate. We chose Geraldine Ferraro, the first, major-party, female VP candidate.

I hope the results are similar too, with the incumbent party winning in a landslide.
