    He’s popular with the voters. He’s going to stomp New York, and then he’ll start looking at the presidency. And he might win that, too. And then they’d have to pass bills, and their donors would be mad.

    They’d rather run bad candidates and lose.

      He’s not eligible to run for president because he was born in Uganda.

          It’s not actually a racist policy. People born in the US, regardless of race, can run for president. People born outside of the US, regardless of race, cannot. Xenophobic, maybe? But not racist. Arnold Swarzenegger can’t run for president either. Neither can Elon Musk.

        I was about to say that Trump has already been elected twice, and then I remembered that that’s not going to stop him.
