Run Harris. Run Newsom. Run Obama. Run Kennedy. Hell, run Gore.

I was just wondering what it'd be like to have a McKinsey president.

I guess his version of the Project 2025 would be to outsource the entire federal bureaucracy to India?

It's ok, be a pedophile and lie endlessly and you can still get into office apparently.
