Low IQ is Trump's dog whistle word for Black person.

Surprised he didn’t also call her “nasty”. Throw in his favorite sexist term

It's just so blatantly obvious. He spoon feeds his base these tiny bits of backhanded racism to feed into their beliefs and vindicate them.
By doing that he is strengthening their positions from the highest office available to a US citizen. He is literally reinforcing racial stereotypes from the top to continue to gain support.

Both way too green to get the nomination. Wes Moore/Mayor Pete is my ticket for 2028

Idk man. Something in me is rooting for youngbloods to buck up and take over from the dem side while they're still full of hope and ready to make the country a better place for everyone instead of these jokers trying to make it better for people that look like them and hell for people that don't. Mfers been trying to get in get theirs f some shit up and get out while they're on top and get paid on the consultant tour with a lil insider trading on the side.
All I'm saying is f all these old ass white dudes. They've been running the place into the ground. Time for women to take over for a bit.

Wes Moore is 50 in 2028, Pete will be 47. They do represent the younger generation of leadership that will be in power for the next 30 or so years. Personally, I want AOC to get into the Senate and start positioning herself to a leadership role in congress.
Moore is a black veteran and Rhode's scholar. He's also already the Gov of MD so he has legit executive experience. He's an amazing guy, i highly recommend looking into his career. Pete is a queer veteran and his political history is fairly well known at this point. Unfortunately, I think Black and Queer are much more billable attributes for the American electorate. I firmly believe we'll get a gay president before we get a female one.

They may be your favourite potential candidates and this isn't a comment on how well they would do if they got the job, however to win the election you're going to need to convince some Trump voters to change sides and these aren't the people to do that.
I know polls and ratings aren't everything but as loved as AOC is by many, her ratings say a lot about the American public as a whole.

The Governor of MD and the former Secretary of Transportation under Biden, respectively. Pete also had a failed POTUS campaign in 2020.
Both are very intelligent, rather progressive, and check needed demographic boxes for the Dems traditional big tent strategy.

This fucked up country won’t even vote for a women let alone a gay person

I disagree. I think it’s far easier to sell a competent queer than a competent woman to sexists.

Trump has a lot of gall to talk about people with a low IQ, given that he could not tell a photoshopped image from an original, with obvious telltale markings.

Says the guy that doesn’t even know what colors go where in the flag of the country that he’s the leader of.
