>PDJT is still a force
Agree. Bidan wouldn't be bringing in illegals and govs like Cuomo wouldn't be pandering to them if the dems had a solid voting majority.
Trump has the US rank and file and all dems can do is fabricate support and a voter base to somehow gaslight the rank and file that their ideas are the American pulse.
This is going to have to blow up in the dems face a major way to right the ship at this point.
Who would replace him? GA runoff showed any new challenger will be 'elected'.
Rubio is savvy enough to know his political future in FL rides with Trump support, and that requires voting in line with Trump policy because the voters are tuned in.
Trump state critters have a real world model to assess as they consider their votes, Lisa Murkowski.
It's normalcy bias, a form of cognitive dissonance. That reflex will illicit an immediate dismissive reaction to any ideas or information that does not correlate with one's present world view.
"Normal" therefore, has to become so unbearable that it's no longer viable in day to day societal life and/or the political figures whose decisions lead to those unbearable conditions become impossible for a reasonable person to support.
