The Return of the Don

That scenario would change my mind. But I don't see it happening unless Joe resigns.
Yeah Joe won't run again. Presuming Harris is the defacto Democrat nominee, I could see Trump winning the primary path and becoming the candidate again, resulting in Harris vs Trump. It's how he did it in 2016 during a GOP field that was too large, I could see it happening again.
Can you imagine how many snowflake heads would explode if Trump won again?

I would imagine there's a significant chunk of people who voted for Trump in 2020 that would not vote for him in 2024 given his antics after he lost by a landslide. In other words, I can't imagine he would pick up many votes, but likely has lost millions.
He didn't lose by a landslide. It doesnt matter how many times you say it, it won't make it come true.

At Joe's age, he may not live that long.
Trump's going to be getting up there by 2024, too.

True.
But at least mental decline hasn't set in, yet.

At https://www.sportsbettingdime.com/politics/democratic-party-presidential-nominee-odds/ is a list of possible Democratic candidates with their nominee odds. Biden is at the top, then Harris. Then Elizabeth Warren, then Michelle Obama. Further down is, wait for it, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez -- which, though farcical, is not surprising, though I'd have thought even that shark would've had the grace to wait for a bit more maturity.
Anyway, unless a sleeper emerges, and we can always hope, the Democratic field looks pretty hopeless.

She would turn 35 only a few months before taking office. I checked because I figured she's too young to even run in 2024, but I was (barely) wrong.

@89th She's too everything else though -- stupid, annoying, oblivious, short.
I wasn't thinking of chron age when I wrote that. Something more epiphanous, more wisdom-ish, as unlikely as that is.
Come on, 89th, tell me the mental image of AOC sitting at the Resolute desk doesn't fill you with the cauld grue.

She already reminds me of a "let a student be
presidentrepresentative for a day" case gone bad, couldn't imagine her even getting close to the oval office. -

That's a matter of opinion.
