yes it’s nice that it’s joever but kamala is fucking evil. she’s a cop, she laughed about putting parents in jail for their children’s truancy, and she wouldn’t let cannabis offenders out of prison after it was legalized because she got paid by private prison lobbies to do so. total scumbag who deserves absolutely 0 support from anybody but the most trump derangement syndrome riddled liberals
Death to America
The first president ever to receive 0 votes in any primary. Probably, idk, fuck US electoral history.
I forgot she withdrew before the primaries even began in 2020 lmao. For some reason I thought she had gotten at least a couple delegates before flopping
The current primary systems didn’t really exist until 1972. This was mainly in response to a bunch of people getting mad that the 1968 Democratic nominee, Hubert Humphrey, was nominated without a single primary vote because he simply inherited Lyndon B. Johnson’s delegates.
National primaries weren’t even a thing until relatively recently, but this is definitely a weird case–sort of analogous to the JFK assassination or Nixon stepping down, but those were both well before their respective conventions. Side note, but somehow I never knew that Reagan ran against Ford in the 1976 GOP primary and Ford barely edged him out.
edit: sorry, I now realize what you meant but I’ll leave it up for the fun fact
I mean technically John Tyler had that honor, I think.
Who somehow has a living grandchild
Goddamn he’s ancient. But it really gives insight into how short u.s history really is, doesn’t it?
Like the recently oft-repeated trivia that Biden was born closer to Lincoln’s inauguration than his own
I like saying he was born during World War 2 during the battle of Stalingrad
is this true? from a cursory search it seems about equidistant but I think it skews a year or two the other way, no?
Lincoln’s second inaugural (which was when they did them in early March instead of January)
it’s still a few years off though, no? March 4th 1861 -> November 20th 1942 is over 81 years. Biden was 78 when he took office. crazy that it’s so close but I can’t see how the trivia is true
Second inaugural, so 1865
John Tyler had a son when he was 63 years old, and his son had his son when he was 75(!) years old. Damn, the Tyler line must had some potent sperm or something.
