Hoping and praying for a VP Buttigieg. Watching him mop the floor with Vance at the debate would be exhilarating.
My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term. My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best
