In the ever-exciting world of politics, the buzz is already starting for the 2024 presidential election, but forget the main act – who will be the supporting character? A recent Deseret News/HarrisX poll has found that if Donald Trump wins the Republican nomination for president, the majority of voters would like to see him team up with Nikki Haley as his running mate. As if a Trump-Haley ticket couldn’t get any more exciting, they’ve got competition in the form of Ron DeSantis, who’s been winning hearts and minds, particularly with the Republican crowd.

The non-stop excitement of the poll also showed potential VP candidates like Mike Pence, Mitt Romney, and others, but who are we kidding? We all want to know who’s going to be in that number two spot. It’s the political version of a reality show, and the American people are the judges, eagerly waiting for that final decision. Let the drama unfold!
But wait, where’s the president in all this pre-election pandemonium? Well, folks, President Biden was spotted at a ritzy fundraiser in Massachusetts, followed by another exclusive event in the nation’s capital, and then a star-studded spectacle in Los Angeles. Tommy Pigott, the voice of reason from the Republican National Committee, was quick to point out that while the president hobnobs with the elite, there are still pressing issues that need addressing – the border situation, inflation, and let’s not forget the town that’s been waiting for a presidential visit for what feels like forever.
Meanwhile, over at the Republican camp, the stage is set for a candidate showdown in Alabama. The anticipation is reaching fever pitch as the political combatants gear up for what is sure to be a clash of the titans. With Trump opting out of this round, it’s anybody’s game – who will emerge victorious, and who will be left licking their wounds? The tension is palpable, and the stakes are sky-high.
In a shocking turn of events, President Biden’s reelection campaign has announced a press conference in Alabama to undermine the fourth Republican primary debate. With the absence of Mr. Trump, the Democrats are preparing to seize the spotlight and make their mark – but the question remains, will their efforts be enough to fill the void left by the absence of the former president?
Just when you thought things couldn’t get any spicier, it turns out that Yale University has been a treasure trove of high grades with nearly 80% of undergraduate grades being A’s or A-minuses. The grading situation at Yale has raised eyebrows and, much like a reality TV show, has the audience questioning the validity of these inflated grades. Are students really earning these high marks, or is something else at play here? Tune in next time to find out.
And finally, as if the drama couldn’t get any juicier, a recent Economist/YouGov poll has shown that over half of U.S. adults are already eager to dive into the 2024 presidential election chatter. It’s like the country collectively decided that the current political scene just isn’t dramatic enough, and what it really needs is some good old-fashioned electoral suspense. Republican, Democrat, independent – everyone wants a piece of the action. Who needs reality TV when you’ve got politics?
