George P Bush/Liz Cheney 2024

[bee33]

The great and wonderful return of Bush/Cheney!

Would never happen, but in all seriousness, how would it turn out against Biden?

[Real Texan Politics]

After Cheney voted for impeachment, that may be a landslide loss for both of them. Also I have a feeling most people in the country don't want another Bush as president.

Let's guess what happens

March 2025 - Big tax cuts for the wealthy
September 2025 - An attack of some sort
October 2025 - Oops we're at war with Iran now
March 2026 - Turns out we have to invade Iraq again too. Who knew?
June 2026 - You're either with us or against us
November 2026 - Republicans make gains in House and Senate
January 2027 - If you don't support us you're just cynical
March 2027 - Goodbye Obamacare!
June 2027 - Hey everybody! Great news! We privatized Social Security!
January 2028 - What do you mean the economy's slowing down? Rich people are doing just fine!
November 2028 - We won! Phew, that was close. Good thing the Democrats nominated John Kerry again.

350 D win. OH/IA narrow up big time. TX stays the same.

[Darthpi – Anti-Florida Activist]

This ticket is more likely as a third party against Trump Republican nomination than anything else.

[Chips]

Nah.

[Nightcore Nationalist]

A massive gift to the neoliberal left that would ensure a strong pro-incumbent election.

Lol, Trump (or one of the kids) would run as an independent and Biden/Harris would be re-elected with ~400 electors. Trump would win most of the hardcore GOP states, Bush/Cheney might walk away only winning a state or two. Trump is infinitely more popular among voters than the Bush/Cheney brand.

The more I think about it, I'm not sure where Bush/Cheney would have any chance at winning. Even UT, which would be the most likely place for an establishment R to win against a Trump-ier R, would probably go for Trump as an Independent. It would be a complete disaster for Republicans, and obviously no Bush will ever again come close to winning the nomination. The backlash from picking Cheney as VP would be catastrophic.

[Fudotei]

Bush is AFAIK not doing an awful job of maintaining some semblance of acceptability with the Trump people, but Cheney is in a bad way. She's probably more likely to be out of office by 2024 than on the main ticket

[vitoNova]

There is exactly 0.00% chance the Trump base will vote for a Mexican Bush in the primaries.

Let me guess, they beat Kamala Harris and Chris Murphy in ‘24, then Joe Kennedy and Roy Cooper in ‘28?

Think about it...

I see what you did there. But I'd replace Cooper with Jeff Jackson to make the deja vu fit even better.

[McGarnagle]

It's actually Kerry/Edwards again

John Kerry and John Bel Edwards

Due to the wonders of emergent nanobot technology, John Kerry is 84 but looks and sounds a spry 60, which he was when he lost to Dubya

He chooses Edwards so he can reuse some of his old campaign memorabilia to save funds. Literally just the 2004 signs with '04 replaced by '28.

You can't run a Romney 2012 style and win in the current climate.

A repeat of the W Bush/D Cheney years.

Wyoming is an open primary State, so unless that changes, she has a decent shot at being reelected in 2022 unless Wyoming Democrats are delusional enough to think their candidate could defeat a Trumpist in the general or apathetic enough to not care who wins the Republican primary. (There is no Senate race in Wyoming in 2022, and even before this, it was unlikely she'd seek to take the Governor's office from first-term Gov. Gordon, so unless she decides to not run at all, she'll be running for reelection in 2022.)

Chancellor Scholz and President Le Pen refuse to enter into a political alliance with the USA, and Secretary of Defense Donald N. Rumsfeld therefore calls Germany and France a problem at a press conference and divides Europe into an ancient and into a modern part.
