Oops, good catch, I was misremembering.
Mitt was the 2012 republican Nominee against Obama, but he didn’t run for the 2016 primary. Ted Cruz was the second frontrunner that Trump beat. Now I wonder if Mitt would have beaten Trump in 2016, because I stand by that he was pretty well respected, but I guess we’ll never know.
Yes - obviously if he does get sent to prison he cannot be elected president. I don’t think there’s precedent for this, so it’d probably go to the supreme court too, but since convicts can’t vote I ASSUME they can’t run.
Will he win again? Time will tell - he still needs to make it through the primaries, and I think Ron DeSantis is playing better with old school republicans than Trump ever did, but last time Trump did beat Mitt Romney who was pretty widely respected, so its certainly possible. If that happens, I think he is likely to beat Biden. A lot of people voted Biden because he was distinctly “Not Trump”, but his victory’s have been poorly televised, and his defeats make him look ineffectual and near senile (thanks Murdoch media).
He has already said that if he is elected he will pardon himself. That’s never been done before, so would almost certainly go to the supreme court, but since thats Republican controlled I would expect that to get rubber stamped. He’s not going to prison if he wins.
And under the given context, you thought it was more likely they were talking about a moon of Jupiter then a continent? “Context matters” after all
