I doubt he will get the DNC nomination anyway. The Obamas have been pretty quiet since they left the WH, their kids are grown now. They don’t have a lot of skeletons in the closet to discredit them and if Michelle agreed to run with Newsome as VP that could be bad for republicans. She’s pretty articulate and would show well in debate against Trump. I am NOT in the democratic camp at all, but everyone is focusing on how bad Biden did and not really focusing on how Trump didn’t really do that great either. He didn’t really answer questions asked. There was so much sniping back and forth between the two, I thought the whole thing was $h!t show. And the whole rowe v wade debacle loses a lot of women voters (rightfully so IMO not because of the abortion choice, but more because it has impacted women’s reproductive healthcare adversely). Not to mention people point to JB’s advanced age, but Trump is only 3 years (?) behind him. Of course only my opinion here and wont vote demo because I am a 2A supporter.
