        I think the Kelly/Harris ticket is stronger than Harris/Kelly. I have zero doubt that Kelly can beat Trump. I don’t know about Harris.

          Harris has 4 years executive experience & Kelly has the Hero status, plus he’s the White Male that will make midwest socialites feel all warm & cozy.

            Exactly. Harris might be the better president, but Kelly is the more electable of the two. Harris is more popular in the blue states, but those states are going to vote for Kelly all the same. Kelly is more popular in the states that actually matter to the election.

      I feel like he would just make stuff up, say insulting things about him, and talk poorly and aggressively about his wife. Kinda like he did to the candidates in 2016 like Ted Cruz and Jeb Bush.

        Cadet Bone Spurs insulting a high ranking military officer and astronaut isn’t going to sit well with the undecideds, or those “Republicans” who have to hold their noses when they cast a vote.

        Anything he says about Giffords is going to backfire spectacularly: she was severely injured; he scratched his ear.

          I definitely agree, but logic isn’t the strongsuit of many of his voters.

          This guy is a way better person, but I can’t help but think about how little it mattered when Trump was talking badly about McCain.
