At the time of this writing, there are 92 days until the Presidential election. Most of us are pretty sure what to expect. Republicans are on the side of incumbent President Donald Trump. Democrats will have no choice but to settle for former Vice President Joe Biden.
It’s no contest, really. Mainstream media would have you believe that Biden actually stands a chance when he can’t even finish a sentence without trailing off and forgetting where he is and what he’s doing.
But as we head into the final hour there could be a new contender in the fight.
In an unlikely turn of events, Former Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura could step up and throw his hat into the ring.
During a Friday night appearance on an international news network, Ventura talked about the effort to draft him into a campaign.
“There’s a movement out there to elect me,” the World According to Jesse host said.
Ventura said a group attempting to recruit him took out a full-page ad in the “White Bear paper telling me this is happening and warning me to be ready to go.”
Admitting he didn’t know what was going to happen, Ventura conceded, “If I were to get into this race, my message would be simple: We need an independent right now because if Biden gets elected, or Trump gets reelected, the polarization is going to continue and it’s going to get worse.”
He theorized the way to get unity is for the “two gangs” — the Republican and Democrat parties — to “get a common enemy,” referring to himself.
Ventura said with an independent president, both parties would be “in bed together” making harmony.
In the event that Ventura actually does find himself in the race, he would join the ranks of the other implausible candidates such as mentally unstable Kanye West and libertarian Jo Jorgenson.
