In reply to the discussion: Nancy Pelosi Reveals Top Dem She Thinks Will Run in 2028 [View all]NNadir

We'll see what happens, even if there is an election since we have a Supreme Court that hates the US Constitution they swore to protect and have nonetheless no intention of protecting, a cabal of ignorant thugs more or less, but if there is an election, I'd love Pete to run.

Nancy Pelosi making an endorsement -- which this isn't even... -- is not """putting her finger on the scale."""

Where does Pelosi say she's "all for" anyone? I didn't see that. Saying a person's going to run isn't

He'll run but won't do well, or decide not to run because he's not doing well. Unlikeable.

Why? One person is probably going to run for president and that makes everybody leave the party?
