2028 US Presidential Election

I would agree here. It's almost like saying "all that trans stuff" or even substitute "stuff" for "nonsense". While apathy is preferably to hatred, for evil to triumph etc etc etc.

Politics is about having and holding power. If you have power you can deal with "peripheral" issues. To get power you must first deal with the primary issues that affect everybody.

My dream ticket, Emmanuel/Buttigieg. Butti made it clear last week that he will not run for senator or Governor in Michigan his new home state.

Here's an 18 min interview by Walter Isaacson with Rahm Emmanuel that ran recently on Amanpour & Co.
They don't get to the topic of 2028 until near the end, but Emmanuel is straightforward and on brand throughout, such as,
"the Democratic brand is toxic". No excuses, diversion or sugarcoating. Just get the job done.
For those unaware his bio is:
Special Advisor Clinton WH 93 - 98
US House 2003 - 2009 (widely tipped to succeed Pelosi).
Chair DCCC 2005 -2007
Chair House D Caucus 2007 - 2009
Obama CoS 2009 - 2010
Mayor of Chicago (his dream job) 2011-2019
US Amb. to Japan 2022 - 2025
For the periods not listed above he worked on Wall St.
Rahm will be 68 in 2028. Pete will be 54 in 2036.
