          Well if the dems shatter it will guarantee GOP victory for years.

          I wish they went with my plan and kept teaming up against the GOP for now and then turn on the dems once the nazis are out.

          Though i get the feeling if everyone did, the dems would end being being just like the GOP once they see all the free votes sitting there.

      I think the pandemic also played huge a part (obviously). People were worried about going out, so they sent mail in ballots. On top of that a lot of people were at home. They had nothing to do and Trump was botching things so badly, going to the polls wasn’t a chore. A little scary? Maybe.

      A lot of those people may have been stuck at work this time around. We need to make Election Day a federal holiday.

      Not that anyone in power will be motivated to do such a thing.

      It blows my mind that Donald Trump is so popular. I can’t understand it at all. I really can’t. I didn’t cry this time around though. I knew it was possible at least.
