US Democratic Senator Mark Kelly has said he will “seriously consider” running for president in 2028 as he battles the Trump administration over a video in which he urged military personnel to refuse illegal orders.
The Arizona senator, who was accused of “seditious behaviour” by Donald Trump over the November clip, said he and his wife, Gabrielle Giffords, received “many” death threats after the president’s comments.
“We get them on a weekly basis now,” he told BBC Newsnight. “We had to get security to protect us 24 hours a day.”
Asked if he was considering a White House run, the retired Navy captain said he was considering it “because we’re in some seriously challenging times”.
We need a Warrior, who will go after MAGA’s crimes likes it’s personal. I don’t care who it is, old, young, man, woman, black, white, anybody, everything else is on the back burner. We can’t get this country on any kind of a track until we ruthlessly crush MAGA, purge it from our government and our country, and harshly punish them for their crimes. Only then, can we start to make plans to redeem our Nation in the eyes of our citizens, the world, and history
I’ll vote for anybody who pledges to make that their primary priority as POTUS.
Remember MAGA chanting “lock her up”? We need that energy now for the Democrats, lock Trump up … imprison all of these corrupt pieces of filth and seize their grifted assets.
I’m totally with you, brother.
Aside from lacking apparent credentials, I think Ilhan Omar would be a good wartime president. She wanted to punch the bastard that squirted at her, which is the right response to Republican jackasses.
The age calls for Teddy and Franklin Roosevelts: People willing to get into the fight, and contend with the issues of their times.
Omar is ineligible for the presidency as she wasn’t born in the US
And yet, we got a rapist in office, and the emolument clauses haven’t been applied for his innumerable acts of corruption. I would much rather have a good naturalized citizen as my president, than a shitty homegrown.
I wasn’t saying it’s not dumb
I’d like to think America could get over its religious bigotry but that won’t happen in the foreseeable future
