    Why do I get the feeling that the Democrats will try some new convoluted strategy to eek out a win. Like using an independent RFK Jr. run to pry enough boomers off of Trump to bring him down to where it is a competitive race again. Except, like 2016, it will blow up in their faces and either reelect Trump by prying boomers off Biden too or electing Kennedy in a comical twist.

      The alternative would be Biden taking bold and aggressive action. I think Biden is one of those hopeless people who - especially when they're old - will never go against their gut. And that's just another way of saying Biden knows he's always right. I'd be shocked if Biden did anything at all to change course. He seems intent on crushing right into the iceberg.

        They would rather go through all that trouble than admit than show even the slightest sign of weakness- to do so could open the door tearing down the image of infallibility that their network of apologists have spent years crafting around the party's leadership.
