    I know nothing about Josh Shapiro, Michelle Obama has stated that she doesn’t want the job, I also know very little about Gretchen Whitmer, and Gavin Newsom is a shit head.

    I say this as someone who follows politics more than average. If I don’t know much more than the fact that three of the four people you mentioned are governors and the other is a former first lady with no political aspirations, what do you think the general public knows?

      Given the fact that a large part of the American population is dumber than a bag of rocks, probably not much. But there’s plenty of time to teach.

      Then again, I don’t think it makes much of a difference. People made up their minds on Biden vs Trump a long time ago and they are in their trenches. The US is truly in a sad state, and it’s quite embarrassing when I talk to family members and friends overseas.
