      Well in 2024, they'll blame us instead of the guy who did the things that made him unelectable, but until 2027 primary or so, a lot of them will pretend to want the same things we want. Then when primary season comes, we're back to 2016/2020 "actually we need to appeal to <demographic that hates healthcare and loves tax cuts for billionaires>".

      Biden wins: Haha we don't need you tankies

      Biden loses: NOOOOOO we're never going to have elections again!

      fast forward to 2028

      We have to vote for candidate 98.995% Hitler, or Mecha Hitler will win and suspend elections!
