They already got their guy, Manchin. He's the only one who went against his party, and his party isn't popular, so the contrary fellow is the obvious choice. On the right, DeSantis and Paul are doing similar things, making plays to highlight themselves from the pack.

I mean, things could change, but if the election was tomorrow those would make sense.

Fuck all these useless career politicians though, and fuck Trump. I'd like to see Elon Musk start a party. Instead of buying a social media company, buy an election. We tried something new with Trump, he disappointed, but let's keep trying people other than politicans.
