“Maine's Secretary of State just ruled that Donald Trump is ineligible to appear on the state's 2024 presidential ballot due to his involvement in Jan. 6.”

Pretty sure DeSantis fumbled the bag by showing how much of an actual freak he is. With how it looks now, if it isn't Trump then Haley might be the "conservative" pick. Which is almost as wild.

Hopefully the conservative votes are just completely split between DeSantis, Haley and Trump (but a limited amount of states) and then none of them will win 

I don't pay that much attention to US politics (because it's a circus. But unfortunately affects the rest of the world and people I care about) but who are the more liberal candidates, if they have any, and are they any good? Any potential for someone decent to win at all?

So this is for the Republican primary, which means that, at this point one of the politicians you mentioned will have to become the Republican nominee for the general election against Biden. So, in the end, this has more to do with who will run against Biden than it does with them running against each other.

None of the primary republican candidates are reasonable or moderate. I guess the most sane is Christie since he's been the one actually calling out the ridiculousness of Trump support asking his party, but he had no chance of winning. It'll for sure be between Trump, Haley, and DeSantis running against Biden in the general election. Due to our (gross) party system, anyone more progressive/independent candidates has 0 chance of winning the general election this time around.

That lunatic can spend all the money he wants campaigning; he has no chance with his messed up voice spouting every conspiracy theory under the sun. 

I personally have no problems voting for someone with a visible disability, but the country does.

NYT just reported that California Declines to Kick Trump Off the Ballot. #Boo

Oh thanks for the explanation. I will never understand how American politics works. There's like 500 steps and it just seems rigged anyway

Oh I see. Not exactly many great options there   looks like it could possibly be Trump vs Biden round 2... and usually people get bored of having the same candidate twice running so here's hoping no matter what happens Trump doesn't get in again. Last time was enough of a mess but this time he's lost 10% more of his marbles and it would probably be more of a disaster (also with wars raging rn who knows what he would do)
