Well, that ends that hope. So what do you all think the Civil War will look like? State vs State? City vs City? Neighbor vs Neighbor?

The main thing this election will do is firmly establish the office of the Presidency as an absolute joke. I have a lots of kids in my extended family - they all see the Presidency as just meme fodder.
Maybe I'm a nerd, but I remember thinking it was serious business as a kid.
I find I don't care much anymore either. It's a clown show.

Why civil war? Biden will win again, Trump will have another tantrum, as will his sheep. The party will be refreshed in 2028 once DeSantis beats Harris (after she's made President in late 2025).

Do you honestly believe this man will make it through November and the rigors of a campaign WHILE acting as President?

Who knows? Hillary was allegedly on the verge of death in 2016 too. Late stages Parkinsons, etc. There are no shortage of pretty extreme senior moments from both of the current candidates.

If I had to bet money on it? Yes he'll make it. My head says yes, but my heart says no after videos like that. Yikes.
He'll keep a relatively low profile during the election. No debates. Nothing too strenuous. Definitely no bike riding. He basically hid in a basement during most of 2020 and won... why change the script?

Good call by Manchin. The US is enough of a gerontocracy as it is, no need for another geriatric contending for the top spot.
