JD Vance’s chances of becoming 2028 Republican nominee are falling, new poll finds

Don Jr. is in second place!? That would be awesome if he got the nomination. He's such a coked up clown, the American public would never vote for... such a... you know what, never mind.

If he wants to ever be president, he needs to either invoke the 25th amendment or get on board with impeachment.

I dreamed that trump was impeached again and this time the Senate voted 50-50. Couch fucker was the tie-breaking vote, and he voted to convict, effectively electing himself president.

It's disheartening that this wasn't a good dream, but it was still too good to realistically hope for.

Vance’s lead over Trump Jr had plummeted

What! Seriously?
Those are what GOP is currently considering the best 2 options?

USA is a joke, and unfortunately a very bad one.

Dude is awkward. Like, so fucking awkward that I’d feel bad for him if he wasn’t also a piece of shit. Really thought he was thinking of ditching his wife for Erica Kirk but that would be awful AND stupid.

I cannot imagine that being seen as the weird puppet of the even weirder puppetmaster Thiel is doing him any favors, either.

I mean, Thiel and his weird associations - the freaks writing The Sovereign Individual, Curtis Yarvin, and Elon himself....blech. I think about the only people getting excited about any of those freaks and their ideas for how WE should live OUR fucking lives would be either the most idiotic of incel morons and centimillionaires and billionaires.

The Democratic Party needs to bring back calling these people weird again. I mean, all the time, too. Orchestrated. Like they started to do for like a minute before someone clearly had them dial it back.

Because these people are fucking weird. Sure, the right tries to constantly cast anyone to the left of Rush Limbaugh as some blue-haired trans person with face piercings and by that coding, way outside the mainstream. But anyone that is a billionaire is by definition someone that is wildly out of step with the everyday person. People like Mikey Johnson that have some weird porn pact with their son are deeply weird. People that follow the likes of Curtis Yarvin telling the elites that we need to get over things like democracy are extremely weird freaks, and people should point and laugh at this kind of thing.

But definitely point it out all the time...don't pretend any of this shit is the least bit respectable.

We still think there's gonna be an election?

Trump is a cold, gold painted toilet, JD is one of the turds floating in it.

oh deer gods it is still 2025

How well is JD Kirk polling?

There is no universe where that guy was going to be Trump's successor. Nobody likes him, he's only there now because Peter Thiel believe he will allow him to replace humanity with robots or something.

Not surprising, nobody likes this prick

He'll be lucky to get prison time instead of a firing squad.

But his pole is raising for that new line of sofas.

Lmao how does one fall from starting rock bottom?

I'm not super familiar with pooling sample sizes. Is 439 a big enough sample to draw conclusions from? Is it a group of people that spreads decently across a specific demographic that historically produces meaningful results?

I have such a hard time understanding political polling. Anyone know of a good way to get up to speed? Doesn't have to be quick

Wait his lead over who??? That coke fueled failson is in the running??

Jebus, this is the stupidest country that has ever existed.

It'll be JD Kirk once him and Erika get married and pump out 5 kids.

I'm not sure if there's anybody in the Republican Party that is a viable candidate, much less JD Vance. The Republican's message may be populist but their motivations are pure greed and authoritarianism and a lot of red state voters are finally waking up to that fact.

He had kirk killed for nothing? oh the shame

Eric Trump wants to run

Any one with eyes knew this in 2024. He was sinking the ticket Dems insisted in sinking further, but that's just history now.

No shit, pudding-man. You were never even supposed to be VP. You were there to take the blame when he didn't win.

Op: Barron Trump

It’s only because he’s a spineless tool and nobody likes him. God damn the libs for causing this.

439 voters! Wow! Let's jump to conclusions!

Awe, c'mon. Put a clown who has no chance of winning on the ticket..

I bet the orange cancer PEDOnald is soiling his pre-soiled pants at the mere thought of Vance trying to be next Preznit.

I just gotta aks somethin...

Have you all even said thank you?

I can't even click onto the article. Anyone who puts any stock in polls is living in a fantasy world. The activity is as flawed as the system it is looking to measure. We might as well be asking oracles or soothsayers. If the polls had any credibility we wouldn't be living in the Trump dystopia, several times over.

Well, Vance was right about one thing. And I suspect most of Lemmy agrees, since no one posted about it yesterday, and we’re not supposed to agree with anything fascists say.

He said no one really likes turkey, no one cares about cooking turkey except on Thanksgiving because it’s expected of them. For poultry, chicken is superior.

Couldn’t agree more. I think it’s high time we stop doing things simply because they’re expected, if we don’t actually like them.

My family doesn’t do a whole turkey. We do a turkey breast, but we also do ham and barbecue. People have a choice. The best of the turkey, plus pork. We even had pot roast yesterday, so beef as well.
