I feel very good about this increasing the election odds significantly. Not saying Hillary didn’t have real supporters, but too many people were holding their nose in order to pull the lever. That kind of muddled enthusiasm kept people from showing up to vote in key spots.

Who knows what the fuck will happen in the next 3 months but having two normal not old people versus fucking Trump and couch fucker is such a massive change from the hellscape we were in a month ago I can’t help but be happy at least for today.

My wife just said, “what the hell are they talking about with couches”, which really cemented how terminally online I am.

Here’s where he starts talking about JD. It’s only about 60 seconds before he gives that couch zinger
ETA:
And I gotta tell ya, his running mate shares his dangerous and backwards agenda for this country. JD Vance literally wrote the foreword for the architect of the Project 2025 agenda.
Like all regular people I grew up with in the Heartland, JD studied at Yale, had his career funded by Silicon Valley billionaires, and then wrote a best seller trashing that community.
C’mon! That’s not what middle-America is!
And I gotta tell ya: I can’t wait to debate the guy.
That is if he’s willing to get off the couch and show up.

I think they exited the stage in the incorrect direction. Pretty sure Biden would’ve been eviscerated for such a move.

I’m sorry but that’s just negligent by your wife. There’s “not terminally online”, and then there’s “I’ve been in a cabin in the woods for the last 2 weeks.”

This world and country are so fucked up that the presidential race is a toss up.

Hard to believe Biden only dropped out 16 days ago, it feels like forever.

Feels great but I’m nervous about the mood. We’re still not out of the woods yet.
We need them to gain ground and we need to fade a bad economy for 3 more months when the data is starting to look iffy.
I believe the phrase you’re looking for is…
“I just fell out of a coconut tree.”

Polling my friends. So far one’s wife loves the couch-fucking. The other would first need my friend to explain who JD Vance is.
Nobody thinks we are. Nowhere close. There will be no more overconfident elections against Donald Trump.
Given that, I’m not sure how the mood could be much better.

I really feel for the Democratic operatives. To have the figurehead drop out, vet and get a VP in two weeks and not have it be a dumpster fire and even have it turn the ship around is amazing.
