Ugh, I saw another link there, “rumored running mate Tom Cotton”. Whoever he picks, it will be one of the shittiest people possible.
I’m old enough to remember thinking how crazy it was that GW was somehow worse than Reagan…
Then trump showed up.
It seems like a forgone conclusion whoever is next will be worse. And I don’t know why everyone else keeps acting like the issue with modern republicans is trump. trump is the symptom, it might be the symptom that kills us, but it’s still a symptom.
So if you think trumps’s VP will be one the shittiest people, just wait to see whoever runs as a Republican next.
It’s been decades, we need to recognize this is a long term problem, and our solution needs to reflect that.
Constantly moving right, just drives the republicans further right to differentiate.
If Dems embraced progress, Republicans would run someone more moderate in an attempt to steal moderate voters. I don’t think we’d lose as much as we do now, but even if we did the worst would be someone closer to Biden than trump. And with wins meaning something again, participation goes up. Which is why Dems would win more.
Essentially, never think republicans have reached rock bottom, you’ll be constantly surprised. They can always go lower…
