Widener is ranked #159 in US News and World Report. (For what those rankings are worth.) Her bio shows experience in:
"Alina has experience in many areas of litigation including, but not limited to, corporate litigation and formation, commercial real estate (transactional and litigation), family law, the financial services industry and construction-related matters."
Trump during a Friday campaign speech said that “Nikki Haley” was “in charge of security” at the Capitol on Jan. 6, repeating Haley’s name four times where he almost certainly meant to say Pelosi’s. Not only did Trump confuse Haley and Pelosi, he also repeated a claim that he offered to send 10,000 troops, which has been fully debunked by the Jan. 6 committee.
He’s demented. Has been for years. He’s a demented rapist, a convicted fraud, a traitor, and he can’t stop lying. Of course he’s leading the republiQans.
How about we allow US Constitutional amendments to be submitted by the public and voted on by purely popular vote. Let's see what the people actually want.
You were supposed to but all he's got to do is ask the Republican majority to do his bidding. Also they used to have to report his state owned plane usage but they got rid of that rule for "security"... which makes sense because the info was always released AFTER he used it...as a way to keep politicians accountable.
I dont think he makes it through the primaries, but because they're actually having them, they'll have a candidate. He's gone from 'kinda' incoherent, to like, 'wow' incoherent in 6 weeks.
Not sure Biden makes it through either, but Democrats arent' really having a primary. Not sure what happens if he, you know, 🪣 🛴
There is no chance he loses the primary anywhere he is on the ballot. The only way I can imagine he isn't the Republican candidate is if enough R party officials choose country over party.
So, it's been nice chatting with everyone on here.
Modern medicine the way it is, I don't think either will bucket scooter off to death. And Trump probably can run from jail. That said, I do wonder what the contingency plan would be if either of both died before the general election. Has that ever historically happened?

I mean having a primary where you have meaningful debates and multiple candidates would be the contingency plan.
Even if the general were like, a week after they both died in a freakish accident? I guess they can always post pone the general though. I'm not sure who would have to make the call or if there are rules in place for DNC or GOP
There is a significant non-zero probability that any given week of theirs, is there last week.
I mean how many years do we think either of these two has left?
2? 3? and it doesn't have to be 🛴🪣 , just total mental or physical degradation.
So what they've got maybe 100, 200 weeks ahead of them max? Assuming a uniform probability distribution, that's a charitable 0.25% per week (and I do not believe its a uniform distribution), 40 weeks till the election, call it a %0.25 for either of them individually to kick the bucket: I get 18.14% probability that either one of the two 🛴🪣 in the next 40 weeks. Like its not crazy, they are old af.
I'm sure a student of geriatrics could get us some more informed priors, but I bet thats in the ball park.
Did they not care? She got a huge chunk of the primary vote. I don’t think you’ll ever convince Trump supporters to vote for anyone else. It’s a cult. She managed to make a decent dent.
