Incumbents run in primaries, too. Sort of.

Yeah but that doesn't really answer the question of to what extent there would be de-facto party support in a largely ceremonial process vs. a more open search. Norris is right though, the model is '68--Kamala runs a more or less real primary, depending on the state of the party. I have to imagine she'd get serious challengers based on her abysmal performance this year (and how poorly I think a Biden admin is going to go), even with the VP designation.

Assuming Biden is prez:

- Biden cracks down harder on leftists trashing downtowns than trump, since it's not a good look to keep them around. cover provided by the media.

- No court packing

- Senate refuses to pass anything, including new stimulus, unless they do before inauguration.

- Intervention wars are back on the menu boys!

- They fuck up title IX again, though maybe BLM can prevent this one from happening.

- Acceleration of woke corporatism. You don't get job without pledging allegiance in to the ideology. Enforced by woke commissars wandering the halls. Yes, Mickey, I'm exaggerating a little. Please calm down.

- the worst covid hysterics probably die down

- basically nothing else.

We'll probably get a pet dog in the white house again, too, which isn't nothing.

Imagine my surprise that almost none of those predictions are quantifiable, and so can't really be disproven.

I do imagine they pull the trigger on at least one GOP politician in the cabinet. Probably Kasich but I'm not predicting that.

Is it a prediction if there's already evidence for it?!

In 2024 Trump will relaunch his career with an appearance on the re-relaunch of Reno 911.
