I think if W ran, he’d win in a landslide.

He’d have my vote. One imagines he’s learned his lesson on Mideast nation building.

Of course he’ll be 82 in November of 28.

Cruz is a sharp guy. Whoever runs, it's going to be a brutal primary. I now have concerns about Rubio since he reportedly supports Venezuela military action. We don't need W-II.

Maybe someone has already said this, but what if Vance runs with Trump as his VP?

[Mik]

Is that legal?

I don't think Trump will do anything like that. This term is taking a lot out of him.

Vance will have to promise, very publicly and very frequently, that Trump will still be his boss, for Trump to go along with a scheme like this; and Vance will have to thank Trump very publicly five times a day for the privilege.

Yeah might not be legal based on the 12th amendment, but when has the law stopped anyone!

[Horace]

It's not legal and it won't happen. And most of Trump's pure idiocy will go away with him. I am not concerned by post-trump "Maga", whatever that will mean. I'm just not seeing the crazy in people like Vance or Rubio.

What’s the cause of the drop?

[jon-nyc]

I assume Iran war. It’s off brand for him, reporting says he counseled Trump against, yet he’s going to have to defend it.

[Tom-K]

This Iran war is turning out to be a pretty dumb idea. The Iranians have stolen the the "Crazy Man" card from Trump and he has no where to go and it's going to leave the Republicans in a difficult spot. They will most likely lose the midterms and now the 2028 Presidential election won't be that easy. I think Vance will get the nod and have a hard fight against some Democratic Looney Tune.

[89th]

Pretty much!
