Pundits like myself sometimes count on wisdom in telling readers who will get elected in a presidential race while forgetting there are 1,001 events that could change everything between now and the time people start voting. Therefore, be skeptical when you’re told the candidates in 2024 will be the GOP’s Donald Trump and the Democrats’ Joe Biden.
I can’t help imagining the first debate. Wearing a MAGA hat, with the FBI watching, Trump decides to leave his red pogo stick behind but still bounces all over braggadocio and nonsense in discussing issues he does not recognize as serious. Biden brings a teleprompter and a teleprompter prompter to help him out if he gets confused by the wording.
