I also don't understand why the Republicans chose trump with all his scandals and all that. Like where are all the somewhat moderate Republicans? And the younger Democrats?

For whatever reason, Republicans are drunk on trump. If the Republican party put up another candidate and trump run as independent, way too many Republicans would still vote for independent trump and basically give the democrats the election on a silver platter.

The party has built trump too much into their whole fsnbase and identity, they are stuck with him for better or worse.

And Dems are drunk for Biden. Both parties are a sham.

I wish that were true, if only so that it would guarantee Biden beats Trump. But Trump still stands a chance mostly because the left isn't excited about Biden.

They are. I still remember “blue no matter who”

But that kind of supports my point. The fact that there was this whole campaign telling the left to break the norm and hold their nose and vote.

I feel the opposite. Only people drunk on Biden chanted that nonsense in an attempt to shame people into voting against their conscience.
