according to the bluesky tracker version it landed in Nashville 21 hours ago

That’s plenty of time to go by bus to Chicago. Throw of the people tracking planes.

That would be cool.  

 

I have no special insight, TSwift or Beyonce is probably a better guess... but there wouldn't be the shock value that a very high profile GOP defection would bring.

Indeed especially if he came out with T.Swift and Beyonce on each arm

I’m hoping for Dan Campbell but that seems unlikely.

The more I think about it I don't think a Dubya appearance would warrant something top secret like this.  Many democrats think he's a war criminal and the republicans washed their hands of the Bush family 8 years ago.  My money is Swift or Beyonce.

I thought they already mentioned Beyoncé would be performing? The top secret nature of it makes me think celebrity. If politician, maybe Cheney or Romney.

There is so much to digest here.... I like how he tells her who he is and she's like "ok?"

Then he asks them questions and when they answer he just says "Ok".   

So damn awkward.

Liz or her dad? (the censor doesn't like his first name).  Her dad would be a big deal, more so than her since she's already out there like Kinzinger is.

For better or worse, views of GWB have softened a lot over the years, and he won a lot of votes in his elections in historically GOP places that are now shaky during the Trump era (ie. the suburbs). 

It's an endorsement they would gladly accept and would be well received, although celebrity appearance is more likely to be the case.

[romad1]

Mitt Romney's name is out there too. 

[romad1]

John Kelly and he actually brings Medal of Honor winners with him?

[romad1]

a retinue of former Trump cabinet officials?

The father maybe as hated by Dems as Trump so I’m thinking Liz. Maybe a joint appearance. Father put out an ad saying Trump is the worst president ever so it’s no secret where he stands.

This is an all hands on deck situation. If Bush can help dems win, then sign him up. Bush would be speaking to a specific audience. I think it would be good that all former presidents, regardless of party, support Harris.

One wrench in the W narrative, is that the Chicks are singing the National Anthem tonight.  

If he comes out with them...

[Dan Gilmore]

Jimmy Carter in a wheelchair, exclaims vote for Harris/Walz and expires.

I mean, I’ve seen Shantel Brown and Nina Turner campaign together for Harris so anything is possible. 

[Motown Bombers]

Maybe it’s Kennedy? He’ll walk out with a dead opossum in his hand like Daryl in that scene in Walking Dead when they firs discover Alexandria. 

[casimir]

Melania.

[Hongbit]

Don’t be shocked if it’s Kid Rock announcing that he’s ending the entire Trump country hillbilly thing and going back to his fake urban hip hop roots.   Will sing Bawitdaba while chugging Bud Lights with Gus Walz as his Joe C. sidekick, and a group of scantily clad Trans models as background dancers.  Show ends with him introducing Kamala and they shotgun a beer together.    Could very well happen according to my sources.

I feel bad for the workers.... I don't think any of them wanted to be props for this.

This is really getting past these fools, isn't it?

Trump would expect him to vote and then die.

Barron is 18. Trump is 78. I can see they know how to do math.

Barron also has issues...perhaps the OP knew that.
