Lets be honest. It’s not a good look for any party running for reelection to have a dementia patient on your ticket.
biden shouldve just used his biden blast but apparently we’re too far past that point now

and now we’re down from 2 major parties to just 1 doing that 
yeah trump’s secret service agents are presumably competent now after that close call
I think Harris/any Republican no matter how moderate would be a really bad idea for Harris – not, like, just ethically, but because it wildly increases the incentive to assassinate her if she wins
it famously worked out for Lincoln

I think it’s certainly valid to think that’s it’s unacceptable for a presidential elect to be in danger

People often want to spread negative emotions, and negative emotions are the easiest for humans to reciprocate. My advice as someone who spends most of their life around politics is that a suspended state of emotion is needed. Although not everyone is capable of that.

ok so pretend that you’re a right-winger, and also that you are the sort of person to attempt to assassinate a candidate for political gain. I think most people are not that sort of person but not enough most
and that it’s after the election and Harris/[whoever] has won
and also you are like at least slightly capable of thinking pragmatically
if it’s, idk, Harris/Whitmer or Harris/Newsom or Harris/Josh Shapiro, and you assassinate Harris, then you still have a Democratic president who’s going to implement just as many policies you don’t like
but if it’s Harris/Kasich, and you assassinate Harris, then the president is a Republican! maybe not your ideal Republican given that you are the sort of person to do a political assassination, but a Republican
