      That’s why articles like this are a waste of time. Young voters can be pissed all they want, but they won’t vote Republican, so it doesn’t matter.

      There’s a Center that voted for Obama, then Trump, then Biden. They’re the only ones worth convincing because they’re the only ones that will go either way.

        Sort of. The other option is just get voters to turn out. There’s a big portion of this country that just doesn’t vote.

      Trump vs Biden would likely result in a Biden landslide, given the scandals, impeachments and catalog of criminal charges now placed against him.

      I’d be more worried about DeSantis getting the Republican nomination.

        Unless there’s a Presidential debate. Say what you want about Trump and I’ll probably agree- but Biden can’t even put a sentence together these days. It’s getting bad.

        (All of this is irrelevant though- anyone who’s been paying attention knows that the Dem nominee is 100% Gavin Newsom)

          I haven’t tried listening to Biden lately so I’ll withhold judgment on that but do want to point out that Trump was never capable of putting together a coherent sentence, so that alone clearly doesn’t disqualify anyone. That said I would strongly prefer a candidate who is significantly younger and significantly more liberal.

          Trump is not very coherent either if you have listened to his speeches. Would be nice to see some young blood in there.

      Years ago I heard a joke, I am pretty sure it was on Royal Canadian Air Farce (the chicken cannon was the best part). The joke went “Canadians don’t vote for who they want, they vote against who they don’t want.”

      You are living up to that joke.
