Something we can agree on, I think both parties will offer better alternatives in 2024, I don't think either Trump or Biden will run again.

But there are even fewer sane Democrats.

There are very few sane politicians, period. We're not left with much to choose from.

That doesn't matter though because he's seen as the man to "reclaim America for Christ" and bring God's law back to this country. If he wins again, this country is finished. Anyone who doesn't want to live in a patriarchal, 1950s society with a third world economy and especially anyone who isn't straight or Christian should think about leaving the country if he wins again. It's hard to imagine the pure terror he would bring upon this country, especially people who aren't the "good Christians" i.e. Baptists, in a second term.
I think you might be on to something here... Is there a way to get the far-right, born-again, science deniers to leave with the far left kooks who want to push their PC/woke bull....?

I want to live in a country with people who appreciate science, but can still handle politically incorrect speech.

There are no "far-right, science-deniers." For one thing, the far-right realize there are only 2 sexes, not 3 or 5 or 10 or whatever.

For another thing, they know that "global warming" (now known as "climate change") is no going to doom humans. In other word they are not alarmists like most leftists are.
