We are going to see 2020 election again. The republican primary is over.

    I don't think it was a fluke. Shit was bad in 2020. I mean it's been bad for awhile now but 2020 felt fucking hopeless. But with the current messaging being "everything's fine, go back to brunch!", the urgency of removing the Orange Man might be gone.

      Yeah, shit being particularly bad in 2020 is the only reason why Brandon managed to avoid snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. The race was incredibly close as it was. Trump would've swept handily without the early pandemic chaos and George Floyd Uprising - that's what I mean by fluke. Now any things that are extra bad are the incumbent's fault so he'd have an even easier time winning.

        Plus I do think larger numbers of Trump voters dying of COVID made at least some difference.

          Unfortunately, the plague is now only killing children, homeless people and minorities. You know, people who cannot vote. Once it couldn’t touch anyone with money, the fence sitters stopped caring.
