@AdamPlotkin @Zigmanfreud But that's the thing ... in 2028 Trump will no longer be on the ballot.
Eyes wide open ... this has ramifications for both Ds and Rs.

@CheckItOuter @Zigmanfreud Oh, I absolutely think whoever they choose will run on pure anti-Trump. A) They have nothing else to run on; and B) Let's face it--Trump gives them plenty of material to use.
English
@AdamPlotkin @Zigmanfreud That's the question ... are the lunatics going to run the show or will the party put a thumb on the scale (as they did with Biden in 2020)?
2028 will be weird in that the Dems won't be able to just an anti-Trump candidate.
English
@Zigmanfreud @CheckItOuter There is no question Shapiro is the better choice for electability in a general election. Frankly, he should be at the top of the ticket. I just do not think they can get him through a primary with all the lunatic antisemites in their Party. Time will tell.
English
It is going to be Newsom/Shapiro, isn’t?
If only because that’s the Democrat ticket seemingly designed to get me to finally descend into madness.
😡🤦♂️🤮
InteractivePolls@IAPolls2022
AXIOS: Some top Democrats are quietly debating a fraught question: whether the party's best bet for winning back the presidency in 2028 is to nominate a man — perhaps a straight, White, Christian man. Former first lady Michelle Obama fueled such talk recently, saying the U.S. is "not ready for a woman." Democratic strategists have put it bluntly, with several saying a version of "It has to be a white guy." axios.com/2026/03/29/som…

@Zigmanfreud @AdamPlotkin Are you calling this shot 2 years out? Bold.
English
@AdamPlotkin @CheckItOuter If it’s Newsom, the VP has to be Shapiro or Whitmer. There are no other choices.

@tylermeredith You post under your name but you are passive aggressive. Hence my criticism. If you have a point, make it, and stand by it.
As to your critique of me, if you cannot address the points I bring up, then my name is irrelevant.

@CheckItOuter One is being transparent. Which is amusing since you’re an anonymous account.

This is hilarious. Fear is not a word I would associate with Lewis.
When you laugh, as he did, at the demise of a fellow NDP government because the weren’t pure enough for him, perhaps a different word comes to mind about his own ego and character.

Avi Lewis is causing the lobby group swamp class that's run this country into the ground to have a total meltdown. if liberals and tories fear him, he's on the right track

@CheckItOuter @Zigmanfreud Lieberman? That was a different time though. I never felt they purged Lieberman over his religion; I felt they purged him because he was a moderate and the party went insane far left.

@farhip Hi Paul. Did he answer any other questions on AF1 or was this his only focus? Please elaborate.

PMs are appointed, not elected, in a Westminster system: They’re accountable to the elected legislature (Carney wasn’t elected on 25/3/14). If Carney doesn’t attend Parliament it’s not possible for us, the elected House, to hold him accountable. globalnews.ca/news/11750090/… #cdnpoli

@adamscochran “Canada currently has the best trade deal with the United States”
- Mark Carney
English
It’s actually Canada’s trade agreement with the US, where one of Trump’s sticking points was requiring that Canada cannot discount gas prices with its own oil.
Even if Canada uses its oil reserves it must be market priced.
So yes Canada - you can blame Trump, and should.
JayGen 𝕏 er🇨🇦@JayGenXer
🇨🇦💸To Canadians who are now looking at $2/litre (and rising). Before you blame it on Trump, here's a reminder. Canada has the 3rd largest oil reserves in the world. It's our Liberal Prime Minister who won't allow us to use them. Plus the Prime Minister before him had a decade to prepare for this, but also wouldn’t us to prepare nor prosper 11 years of planned decline! This was NOT by chance!

@NickAPappas @alanrosca @RichardHaass You ask a question. You then claim to have an answer to that question.
English
@alanrosca @RichardHaass What is the job? Because the President started this by very clearly starting its regime change. Is that still the job or has it changed to simply degrading their capabilities?
Tbh, it looks like the job right now is to reopen the straight, which is not 1:1 with either of those.
English
it is getting increasingly tiresome to read and hear calls to "finish the job" in Iran absent any serious discussion of what the job is and how it is to be accomplished with military force.
English
I have no idea whether or not this increases my risk of being accused of a hate crime for knowing that men are men and chopping body parts off healthy people is a scandal.
Because I have no idea what constitutes “hate.”
And that is precisely the problem.
Mark Carney@MarkJCarney
The Combatting Hate Act passed in the House of Commons this week. That’s a huge step forward in our mission to build a stronger, safer country where everyone — no matter who they are or how they worship — can live free from violence and intimidation.

@svdate Not sure if you're trying to be a smart-ass here but I'd encourage you to do even just a little bit of research on this point. You might actually learn something.

Every Apollo flight from 10 onward, as well as 8, went on the “far side” of the moon.
CBS News@CBSNews
CBS News' space contributor Christian Davenport says the Artemis II mission planned to send a crew of four astronauts around the moon, "may go further out into space than any humans have traveled before, so it's really a historic mission." "They're going to go to the far side of the moon, and they're going to see parts of the moon, potentially, that nobody has seen with their own eyes before," he says.

CBS should launch a new sitcom called "Everybody Hates Bari."
Democrats & independents don't want blatantly pro-Republican bias. And Trump fans want vein-popping ragebait.
This was doomed from the start. Anyone outside the GOP ruling class knew it: status.news/p/cbs-news-rat…

@carlquintanilla @tgaffney1113 lol … according to grok, Carl is a hack:
Grok@grok
During Biden's term (Jan 2021–Jan 2025), EIA data shows the national average regular gasoline price was ~$3.45/gallon. The peak high was $5.02/gallon (all grades weekly avg) in June 2022; regular hit ~$4.93 monthly. Carl tweeted about gas prices numerous times under Biden (20+ instances in sampled X searches across 2021–2024), mostly noting declines after the 2022 peak or 2024 lows.

We can’t afford gas.

@peterbakernyt @adamrasgon @julianbarnes @farnazfassihi Convenient dishonest framing, Peter. Par for the course.

The US has sent Iran a 15-point plan through Pakistan to end the war in the Middle East, reflecting the Trump administration’s eagerness to find an offramp from the conflict as it grapples with its economic fallout. @adamrasgon @julianbarnes @farnazfassihi nytimes.com/2026/03/24/wor…

The six-candidate limit happened to cut out all of the non-white Dem candidates because they're polling behind the four Dem white candidates. Incredibly awkward

@jamiedupree @milkchaser Cards on the table Jamie ... do you believe that Trump colluded with Russia in 2016 to get elected?
English
Democrats didn't pick Mueller to investigate the Trump-Russia matter.
Trump's own Deputy Attorney General, Rod Rosenstein, tapped Mueller on May 17, 2017.
Congressman Max Miller@RepMaxMiller
It’s an absolute shame that the Democratic Party tarnished a good man by making his last case the Russia Hoax. What we knew now is what we knew then. RIP Semper fidelis
