Time Traveler here, screen shot.
Democrat primary is a crowded field, but gets whittled down to Harris, Buttigieg, and Newsom. Harris is only there because people remember 2024, but she doesn't make it because people remember 2024. Newsom eventually wins after relentlessly ripping Buttigieg for his shit record as Transportation Secretary.
Republican primary is crowded too, but not as much as the Democrats. Trump doesn't endorse during the primary, so Vance stands on his own, but is eventually ripped apart by the media using simple gaffs against him. The race eventually ends up with Rand Paul versus Tim Scott. MAGA wing goes for Paul, GOP establishment goes for Scott. Very close primary, but Paul barely squeaks by. Paul takes Scott as his running mate to "heal" the party.
The actual race is pretty straightforward. Rerun 2024 were the media massively backs Newsom and tries to destroy Paul over literally anything. Everything eventually falls apart for Newsom in the debates. They agree to 3, and Newsom clearly didn't prepare to counter Libertarian talking points for the first debate. 2nd debate was on Fox News, and while Newsom does better, he struggles with being fact checked. 3rd debate Newsom actually does extremely well, but so many people were checked out that it made very little impact. Paul eventually wins with the "October Surprise" being a white anchor on a liberal network (not spoiling this one because it was hilarious) making extremely racist comments about Paul's running mate because he let his guard down after his panel of black guests got done roasting Scott.
