   We should not ignore the fact that the GOP is on track to nominate as its presidential candidate a man who is indicted on 78 criminal counts across multiple jurisdictions both state and federal. The GOP is broken beyond repair.

     @georgetakei the GOP became a failed political party the moment they abandoned democracy and turned to an attempted military coup to get their way on Jan 6, 2021. This is not what broke them. This is merely the death spiral.

     ah, but I see it as a possible path for Joe Biden's landslide in 2024. Let's say trump isn't on the ballot. That means some other Republican cretin takes that role. trump has many devoted followers, so what if 30 million of his MAGAs write him in for President. 25 million cast a vote for the candidate on the Republican side. Joe Biden receives 85 million votes......as long as he takes the electoral college votes majority, he wins.

     This is as good a time as any to point out how the Electoral College needs to be thrown out and replaced by Popular Vote, just like all other elections.
     carry on

     Yes…..the same man who used his office and platform to give voice to white supremacy in this country again and who’s minions are still trying to disinfranchise any voters who are not white males ? The Constitution they claim to love , at the time it was written, gave voting rights to only white, Christian, male landowners.
     That is what they want back.
