Probably his marriage, but the way everyone's going on about him humping couches and whatever else, it might be his political career that goes first.

It's really hard for Republicans to say they're not racist when they continually say things like this.

Kamala Harris switch scrambles Republicans as Trump resorts to insults

A week ago, former president was riding high, but now he faces vibrant, younger rival who hit the ground running

www.theguardian.com

Insults are all he has.

 

[squeekness]

Not the Justice party, apparently.

 

[Lily Adler]

Insults are all he has.

As Pete pointed out, that's his entire campaign strategy since Hillary. It's not based on real policy. it's about insulting the other candidates.

Disappointing, considering all the democratic enthusiasm.

JD King of RoVance lol.

“My wife isn’t perfect of course, being non-white, but she has her good points and isn’t foreign childless cat lady scum at least. She’s had kids, doesn’t like cats, and likes Diet Mountain Dew spilled in sofa cracks, - and I will always love those 3 things about her regardless of all the downsides.”

At least Biden stuck to what most voters wanted. I hope Kamala continues this trend.

Would either side be too pissed if their non-favoured candidate was chosen? Hopefully that doesn’t cause any division.

Possibly. But it helps that they're both white men and Kamala has shown to be a party player and loyalist while also moving towards voters in the past, so maybe not.
