    This guy is an accomplishment-free Representative (I can see there are already people here deeply ignorant about politics, so I’ll add: No Representative has ever been elected President) who is such poor politician that he under-performed Biden as an incumbent in his own fucking district in 2020.

    This guy is a clown who is in no way suited to be President and knows he has no chance of being President. This is pure attention seeking from someone who deserves zero attention.

        He’d have to be both a legitimate candidate and left of Biden to do that. He’s neither.

        “Chaos at our border and in our cities is growing, while our commitment to countering it is receding,” the Minnesota congressman is expected to say, according to a campaign spokesperson.

        Phillips is being advised by former Republican strategist Steve Schmidt, two people familiar with the campaign told CNN. Schmidt, who left the GOP in 2018, previously worked on the campaigns of former President George W. Bush and the late Arizona Sen. John McCain.

        And his decision to focus on New Hampshire after the Democratic National Committee sought to elevate South Carolina to go first on the primary calendar could hurt him in the Palmetto State’s February 3 primary.

        His primary issue is the border and the completely fictional right-wing “growing chaos in our cities”, his campaign being run by a Republican, and he’s suspiciously avoiding campaigning in a state where he would need to convince black voters. If you’re left of Biden the more you learn about this empty suit the less you’ll like him.
