It’s called the ‘Democratic Party’. This is the second week in a row that news sources have focused on low rumblings about the 2028 presidential election. Early possibles include Rahm Emanuel (Mayor-Chi), Pete Buttigieg (Biden Trans Sec), Andy Beshear, (Gov-Ky), Ro Khanna (Rep-Ca) and Gary Newsom (Gov-Ca). No doubt that many more will join the fray.
An emerging insight is that it is no longer possible to win a presidential election by appearing on MSNBC and CBS. Buttigieg, for example, appeared on ‘The Breakfast Club’ and a sports podcast. It is suggested that candidates also appear on the likes of FOX and The Joe Rogan Experience as well as participating in a broader spectrum of events like YouTube and even Facebook – the object being that the democratic candidates will have to cull a victory from disgruntled republicans, typically not-interested no-voters and skeptical democrats.
On the Trumper’s side, two articles appeared in science journals suggesting he is in a growing stage of dementia tied to his own perceptions of reality. This may be the reason so many of his statements reflect the circumstances of his first campaign. Don isn’t eligible to run again according to the Constitution but then, who follows the Constitution? Watch Texas – they’re trying to ignore it.
So the game is on. Will the democratic party be able to introduce themselves to a new electorate and carry the 2028 election? Watch the 2026 returns to see if anything is working.
Of course, another option is an AI robot candidate.
