The Republican class is dying out quickly. Most of the last of them are leftover boomer generation or a select few of their breeding left over. Not enough to win the overwhelming majority of votes anymore. Thank god. If you want any middle class left in the country, republicans are not the way to go as history has shown. If you want a few extra rich goofs getting rich off the back breaking of some underpaid workers, you got them in republicans.



Trickle down economics doesn't work as has been proven time and time again

Effectively, 25,900 voters in Pennsylvania, 25,900 in Michigan and 25,900 in Wisconsin.

Those 77,700 voters were not Trump supporters, they were Hillary-hating Democrats and Independents.

For anyone who cannot wrap their brain around that, I have good news: You still have time to enroll in the 4th Grade at your local elementary school, because you need to REDO FROM START.

Trump will not win those 3 States this time round. Those Hillary-haters can tolerate Biden and they'll vote for him.

Since Trump cannot win the popular vote, everything rests on the Electoral College, and doesn't have it.

As far as 2024, there ain't no one in the Republican Party. All they got is a bunch of old men and that ain't gonna work in 2024.
BIG false assumption in your calculation, and that’s that the Hillary-haters can tolerate Biden. Far from it! Biden is a much worse candidate than Hillary - obvious dementia, a sexual assault claim that has yet to be investigated, and a move to the hard left that will drive away moderates.

He wins the Electoral College again, and the same way.

The far-left giveaway programs will kill the middle class. We will be taxed up the wazoo to pay for it all. I know you’re a liberal and thus hate the “rich,” but you could confiscate every cent they own and it still wouldn’t pay for all the socialism.

Not sure how to take this post. If that is what you really believe, then there is no conversation to be had. You are saying that things have been bad for you these last 4 years. Did you not take advantage of all the economic opportunity that was available? Did you not enjoy the extra bump of money from the tax cut? What about the your 401k gaining quiet a bit? What about the low unemployment numbers for you and the rest of our citizens? Clearly, most people benefited from trickle down economics that you say do not work. These results were not on the same level prior to 2016. We were clearly much better up until our current situation.

I think people need start paying more attention to the recent election UK just had. Those are the same democrats that we have in our gov't now who wanted to implement those same policies, and those results did no bode well for them. People are aware.

I think you mean to say - What's next for Americans? I'm Democrat and am scared if that ever comes to pass.

A hard left was Sanders and Warren. Biden is center-left. He is the closest thing to a moderate available. After you drown out the dementia BS noise, he's a perfectly reasonable candidate. He's 3.5 years older than Trump. If age is a problem, go vote for a third party.

First Joe has to be busted out of his basement or nothing’s going to happen.

The freeze on in-person campaigning during the outbreak has had an upside for Biden, giving the former vice president more time to court donors and shielding him from on-the-trail gaffes. . . .

As [Trump] pledged more than $600 million in coronavirus response aid to two Native American nations, standing with tribal leaders in person, Biden’s campaign sent a message on Facebook pledging to “stand with” native people in their fight against sex trafficking.
Free Joe!

Same old rhetoric as they were espousing before the 2016 election. Trump won’t win any of the swing states...etc,etc,etc. ( and then he wins them all) The Dems haven’t learned a single lesson and are gonna experience another loss and heads will explode. I know, I know.... this time for SURE!
Bwahahahhahahahhaha!
