A mere 20 years later, and another presidential campaign is threatened with boats, er, votes. Or perhaps you don't Kerry.

@jackcole I see no context here. Where's the Swift Boating?

And "perhaps you don't Kerry" ... what does that mean, sorry?

@GottaLaff
John Kerry lost the 2004 Presidential Election to George W. Bush in part because he was "swiftboated", a fabricated and untrue story that he didn't earn medals in Vietnam. Donald may (in part) lose the 2024 election bc of the Swift boat of fans.

I any case, while justice in the legal system may not be so speedy, judgment in the court of public opinion, a court in which Donald believes, may be Swift.

@jackcole I know about SwiftBoating, I used to cover it extensively.

I couldn’t make heads/tails of your sentence "perhaps you don't Kerry“. “You don’t Kerry”?

And how is Trump being SwiftBoated?
