I would be very, very surprised if that happened. I'd ask my co-worker (who was an analyst for the CIA) but that would be weird since politics doesn't come up at work. Last time we talked it was about this dish she got from a Vietnamese takeout place.Our neighbor (ex-CIA) thinks the Democrats will switch to Newsome at the convention. I don’t see it, but that would be a lightning bolt that would blow people’s minds.
Yup. It's true; you couldn't even buy toilet paper four years ago.The Biden campaign needs to compare and contrast 2020 and 2024 over and over again
Does he explain why he thinks that?Our neighbor (ex-CIA) thinks the Democrats will switch to Newsome at the convention. I don’t see it, but that would be a lightning bolt that would blow people’s minds.
Perhaps if Biden dies. But most people are voting for Biden now so if the party decided to choose someone else undemocratically they would risk turning off a lot of people and see it is the worst kind of politics. The election margins are too small to risk that. It’s Biden or bust at this point!Our neighbor (ex-CIA) thinks the Democrats will switch to Newsome at the convention. I don’t see it, but that would be a lightning bolt that would blow people’s minds.
Don't say it like that, say it like this: "We were wiping our ass with coffee filters four years ago."Yup. It's true; you couldn't even buy toilet paper four years ago.
If memory serves hundreds were dying rvery day in 2020 from motorcycle accidents, back when we had that pandemic of reckless motorcyclists.Don't say it like that, say it like this: "We were wiping our ass with coffee filters four years ago."Yup.

She did not give the impression that she was using inside info. His age, the rigors of the job (when you’re actually doing it, and not just lining your pockets), and unpopularity among younger voters (who really haven’t been paying attention).Does he explain why he thinks that?Our neighbor (ex-CIA) thinks the Democrats will switch to Newsome at the convention. I don’t see it, but that would be a lightning bolt that would blow people’s minds.
Or is it just a personal feeling/preference sort of unsupported assertion?
I'd like it if they did. But I see no reason to think that will happen.
Unless something bizarrely unexpected happens between now and then. Which is quite possible.

I'd presume because the alt-right media they slurp up keeps shoveling them shit like that.Does he explain why he thinks that?Our neighbor (ex-CIA) thinks the Democrats will switch to Newsome at the convention. I don’t see it, but that would be a lightning bolt that would blow people’s minds.
Honestly, little as I know about him I see Newsom as the best option should Biden be unable. I just don't think that will happen short of something drastic, like a heart attack or assassination attempt.I'd presume because the alt-right media they slurp up keeps shoveling them shit like that.Does he explain why he thinks that?Our neighbor (ex-CIA) thinks the Democrats will switch to Newsome at the convention.

I find the Teaparty Republicans so appalling and dangerous I'd vote for Taylor Swift's maid if that were the Dem nominee.I would vote for Newsom.
