Exactly but, things being what they are, I don't think there's a snowflake's chance in heck that the Democrats will choose anyone else.

Business world is pretty much the same (at least mine is)
Obama was way better than Mccain and Sarah Palin and Mitt Romney was also really weak from what I remember.
Though, I suppose a lot of it was awash with the feel good of racism had ended and Obama was going to bring world peace
Kamala has 2 adopted children. I guess Vance’s argument is that somehow that doesn’t count. “Your mom is not the real mom. Trump/Vance 2024!”
If she has kids, then that kinda ends the 'logic' behind his statement ...
Step-daughters (grown-up). They were 20 & 15 when she married into the family ten years ago
I don't know, lads... I think, with the right pick as veep, she's got a fighting chance. She ticks two enormous boxes that Joe didn't have leaning his way nearly as much as she should. I think this will wake up the younger female and minority voters who, when faced with two old white men again, wouldn't have bothered to even check on the result the next day. I think a lot of you may be surprised in the Autumn.
I fucking hope so, or I'm grabbing both girls and heading home, a.s.a.p.

Musk and Thiel essentially forced Trump to accept their protege Vance as a condition of massive financial support. Now it’s looking like he’s a liability politically and the financial support might not materialize…
If Trump wins, prepare for civil riots breaking out all over the US. For some strange reason, i keep envisioning the scene where Bane unleashes his goons onto Gotham after releasing them from prison.
If Kamala wins, prepare for The Great Depression 2.0. Major recession all over.

Based on what - just vibes? She largely pledged to continue Biden’s economic policies, which avoided the recession everyone was predicting and led to the highest stock market EVER.
I think it’s the opposite. Trump will lose, probably by a significant margin, and some of his supporters will turn to violence because they feel like they don’t have a legitimate option to express themselves anymore.
"Vibes". That's probably one of the GenZ words that i despise the most.
No, its based on the poo that came out of my hole this morning.

Sorry I should have included a trigger warning.
Sigh. Alright then.
Let's try to view it from a different perspective. Because depending on which American you speak to, each will likely tell you differing opinions.
But from an investor perspective, here's my very brief take.
During Biden's administration, there was the infamous banking crisis. While significantly bad, which led to the collapse of long-standing reputable regional banks, and Silicon Valley Bank, it was more contained as compared to the 2008 recession for e.g. Mainly because there were mechanisms put in place by the FDIC since then, to ensure something like 2008 will never happen again.
However, lets not be naive. The ripple effect of that crisis is still being severely felt esp. by the middle income group, and the long-term repercussions remain to be seen.
How did it happen ? It's hard to pinpoint a single root cause. However, many blamed the Federal Reserve's aggressive interest rate hikes against inflation that stressed the banks over the tipping point. But it was dealt with very swiftly e.g. the bailout and tightening of banking policies. You could also say Biden's administration did well.
But to say the S&P's highest performance was down to Biden is not accurate either. He was already riding a bullish market momentum when he entered office. Biden keeps on emphasising the US strong recovery during his term as one of his main achievements. Trump fires back and blames Biden for the highest inflation rates that the US have seen since the 1980s. My take is there is no economical indicator that will find the needle in the haystack. The reality is the truth lies somewhere in between.
There are rumours that Kamala will be speaking at this weekend's annual Bitcoin Conference, which Trump has already confirmed he will be speaking at. So that's going to be interesting. Both pivoting and trying to appeal themselves to the crypto crowd.
Traditional monetary systems as we know it is changing very rapidly. So is the world, so rapidly it's actually kinda frightening at times.

Weren't the Beachboys singing about good vibes in the 60's? Is it really GenZ?
Yeah but in almost every sentence ?
Hahaha jesus christ. It might be worth you sending a bat signal out to singlerider for an economics 101 refresher.
Vibes is not gen z. I'm gen x and I've used it for years.
It's just the vibe I'm getting.. but I'm with Rurik. It's the opposite. Riots if Harris wins. Depression 2.0 and all out WWIII during Trumps 2nd term if he wins.
This post is sure to trigger Mr Irrelevant aka Dantes.

And it might be worth you rewatching father ted to get a refresher in measuring distance.
I think if we just go by the last 7.5 years ... wars during Trump term 1 vs wars during biden term 1, what are you basing ww3 on? The reality of the last 3.5 years?
Ah the infamous how many wars did Trump start argument?
Totally ignoring he was the one who signed the withdrawal of US troops during his term then left Biden to carry the can.
Also Trump did bomb Syria. But that conveniently gets forgotten.
I'm basing my thoughts on the current landscape. Even the current UKs top army chief has said we must be prepared for war in 3 years.
Now do you think this is
A) More likely with a democrat president / fully backed NATO promise.
Or
B) More likely with a republican president who's made noises about pulling out of NATO during his last term, who wants to stop funding to Ukraine? And who has a VP who's just as batshit crazy?
Didn't realize it was infamous.
Withdrawal from Afghanistan? You're against that? Was it done well? No, what were the original plans etc? Don't think that can be counted as a war ...
If "bombing a country" is starting a war, how many did Obama start? I mean it's stupid logic ... he bombed other countries but bottom line, wham bam thank you ma'am and nothing afterward (thankfully).
I'm not the UK war chief, and I hope he's wrong ... but the questions you're asking are ignoring how the countries who the west may go to war to (I assume you mean China and/or Russia?) See things ... how they talk in open and behind closed doors about the leaders etc ... If you think kamala is the answer - I'm a bit surprised... I don't think Trump is the answer either, as the world has changed a lot in 3 years. If you were russia or China, who would you want as president if you wanted to start a war?
I haven't finished the 2nd part of the 'prophecy' though.
I'm going to go against popular opinion. I think if Trump wins, he is Bane and the Dark Knight all rolled up in one. There will be riots and chaos in the beginning, and then he, together with his MAGA billionaires will broker a false peace treaty, and usher in the new world order.
So yeah, he's definitely gonna win the elections.
Trump did nothing to de-esclate anything, dropped more bombs on Afghanistan than Obama, that takes some doing, helped Saudi bomb Yemen, earning his son billions in the process. This anti war crap is nonsense. And that shit with the Iranian general nearly kicking things off again then... And bringing nukes back into the conversation for the first time in decades. It's just nonsense that he was some peaceful president. Half the country was rioting on his watch. I dunno how everyone forgets. It was only a few years ago.
