Once again completely overlooking the fact that Joe ain't lasting 4 years, with a best case view of his health and mental awareness.

Silly. In what universe does someone think that Trump is in better mental or physical shape than Biden?

And we've already lived through a president who clearly had Alzheimers -- Reagan. Since Joe will be surrounded by folks far superior to Javanka and 87 interim appointees, you still just vote Joe.

not a remotely close call.

And for those not happy to pass the ball to the Dems, 2024 offers all sorts of choices thereafter.

"2024 offers all sorts of choices thereafter."

Not if your a Republican. The Republican party has always been a fouled up cluster fudge from my point of view. If you see a promising Republican out there with your high powered binoculars they will have to be a real glutton for punishment. No matter who the person is, or how shining their credentials are, they will be eviscerated by the Democrats. Who ever the next Republican lamb to be led to the slaughter is they better be practicing their concession speech already. The problem with your Republican party MD is you have so many different wings that your folks will never be able to fly. I have a question for you. How does the Republican party appease all of the trump supporters? Yall may despise them but when you nominate your next fluffernutter, they will stay home in droves. There is a very strong element of the Republican party that is sick and tired of lightweights like Mittens. That is quite the balancing act your party has to pull off MD. You have stroke the right and coddle all the moderates. Good luck with that.

Quite the challenge right?

After all, we went exactly against the 2013 analysis conducted by the GOP on how to compete going forward.

Demographic disaster.

But the hard work to do so begins after we wash the hard core racist, nativist wing out of the party.

Else we'll never be able to compete ideologically.

Of course, the Trumpists know that, thus the desperation.

So, to my mind, the worse the ignominious defeat of Trump and Trumpism, the sooner that work can begin.

"But the hard work to do so begins after we wash the hard core racist, nativist wing out of the party"

Your Republican party has quite the conundrum my friend. There is probably a huge block of those hard core racist nativist right wingers that want to wash all you moderate fluffernutters out of the party. My best friend and former neighbor has the same disease as you do. He and his entire family are also "lifetime Republicans" I think of him often when I read your FLP moderate diatribes. If the 2 of you were standing in the same room and claimed to both be lifelong Republicans I would say that one of you is lying to me. My former neighbor must be one of those hard core racist nativist right wingers you abhor so much and want expunged from your party. The contrast between the 2 of you is amazing to me. I can't wrap my head around how 2 lifelong republicans can be so diametrically the opposite in everything you believe and still be in the same party. I could talk to 100 lifelong democrats and never find the deviation in core beliefs that I see in your republican party. I am so glad this is your problem and not mine. I will admit that your republican party can write some very heartfelt concession speeches. they do have a lot of practice when it comes to losing major elections.

Had Biden been the (D) candidate in 2016, with Steve Bannon as his adviser on populism,
Biden would be President already & Bannon would be hailed as the political genius who captured the critical segment of the electorate.
Trump would not have been elected without Bannon's populist message & anti-Clinton tactics.

That would have depended upon how much of Bannon's Populism he advocated.
I didn't, & would not have voted for Trump anyway.
It's irrelevant. We don't live in swing states. Our Pres vote is meaningless.

I love the old man that thinks each Trump is 8 years on the back of his shirt. Kinda reminds me Joe Biden.
