As a non-USAmerican I only know Michelle Obama from that list. But if you want real change and young voters, get AOC on the ticket. I bet you that'll wake people up. She's media savvy and could probably get the entire tiktok+insta viewership to campaign for her. The facebook folk probably less so, and the redditors 50/50. She would need a male vice president though. Two women in the US ain't making it this year.
But honestly, I want Trump to win. The world needs a good shake up and divorce from the USA. New alliances have to be made and the reliance on US tech and media has to stop. I know it would hurt USAmericans, but it'd be the best for the world to stop following the USA as if hypnotised.
You're delusional if you think it would only hurt Americans. America would become EVERYONE'S problem in a big way.
I doubt they can become a problem in 4 years. Come election time (2028), there will be a civil war and it'll implode as Trump tries to hold on to power and become president for a 3rd time. He's unpredictable, but one country against the world? They lost countless war games.
I didn't say there wouldn't be problems 🤨 There will be, but we'll come out of it better than before. The rest of the world that is. The US, not so much.
