Mayor Pete

[Cold War Liberal]

This is probably what's gonna happen. Good job so far!

[Cold War Liberal]

Quitting my job to volunteer full time for this ticket.

If the former Secretary believed in God, she'd be praying right now.

Actually Hillary is a fairly devout Methodist, a fact she didn't really accentuate all that much on the campaign trail because 99% of the people who care about what religion the President is are the same people who think she's a Satan worshiper.

She even quoted John Wesley's rule (a rule I quite like and that all people of any religious affiliation or lack thereof would do well to live by) in her DNC acceptance speech.

Oh, and oh God Trump won... I guess it's necessary for Pete to win in 2024...

[Cold War Liberal]

Yes!!! You pretty much captured how honest and casual I think Kander is in real life from the interactions I've had with him, which only makes your TL even more realistic. Sad that Trump won but that happening was obvious, just by narrative standards. Also, forget Pete '24 or Kander '24, how about Impeachment '21?!

Plus if Trump is removed from office before his second term expires, having an openly gay governor beat President Mike "pray the gay away" Pence in a landslide would be cathartic.

I think Gillibrand winning AZ is a sign that the sunbelt is tilting D, which could be foreshadowing an absolute Democratic landslide in 2024. Possible that Texas goes D too, since Gillibrand (and Beto, for that matter) only lost by a little.

SINEMA/BUTTIGIEG 2024!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Cold War Liberal]

Still, Senator Hickenlooper knew that he wasn't getting older.

I KNEW Hickenlooper was immortal!

Good timeline BTW, not thrilled with Gov. Perez but better than Barry Glassman or even Rutherford

[Cold War Liberal]

Go Pete and Hogan

[Cold War Liberal]

GO LARRY GO GO GO

[Cold War Liberal]

I'm torn! I love Larry Hogan in this but watching Mike Pence lose to an openly gay man would be cathartic... Hmm...

[Cold War Liberal]

Hope Buttigieg chooses Stacey Abrams as his VP pick...

[Cold War Liberal]

YAAAAS HOGAN

[Cold War Liberal]

GO HOGAN

[Cold War Liberal]

Buttigieg choosing Sharice Davids would be awesome, Pence should choose Cruz or Hawley so I can watch them lose together, and Phil Scott should choose Hogan.

[Cold War Liberal]

I have mixed feelings about Sinema as a VP pick in 2024. I think she's too moderate, and she needs to run for reelection in AZ. I would love two LGBTQ+ people on the national ticket though, especially since they're going against Pence, and having the ticket be two white men would be a lil weird in 2024, twenty years after the last time the Democrats nominated two white men for the presidency and vice presidency

I'd rank those five, in order from favorite to least favorite, like this: Whitmer, Foxx, McAdams, Sinema, Kander. I still like all of them and would vote for any of these tickets.

"I'm here to recruit you!"

Harvey Milk's famous call to action, borrowed by the Buttigieg campaign, caused a new wave of cheering.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

I adore Harvey Milk so obviously I loved this part so much, great lil detail thrown in there.

[Cold War Liberal]

Awful pick on Pence's behalf and I love it

Hawley's seat is up in '24. Can/will he run for both offices at the same time?

[Cold War Liberal]

Four More Years format, please.

[Cold War Liberal]

Yaaaaaaaas Sen. Angie Craig

(She's LGBTQ too)

Interesting take on the first gay president heading to less gay-friendly countries; this is something I wonder about.

[Cold War Liberal]

Thanks for making this. It's been fantastic to read and I've loved it.

[Cold War Liberal]

Sharice Davids as President?
