I understand your point about amount of time and seriousness of the office, but when did CFT ever act Presidential? When did he ever show he knew what it meant, other than a get-out-of-jail-free card to loot the Federal Treasury by only staying at properties he owned so that the required entourage's bills went directly in to his coffers?

What's CFT? What does it matter what Trump thinks. His party is behind him 100%. NYT endorses him. He has Fox News doing all his campaign work. And every Republican loves him. He can't do anything to make Rs not vote for him.

Most certainly, especially since it is not original with me but from another, faster Bulwark reader whose permission I obtained.

Exactly. Yet the Speaker sat behind him in court with other pols. They support him blindly no matter what. That makes voters want to vote for him. If the Democratic political machine isn't supporting Biden, why should voters?

Exactly, which is why it is way past time to change horses. The fact that the former GOP, now POT (Party of...) has no leaders, only followers, does not mean those who have not drunk the Kool-Aid should emulate them.

I agree. I don't want to emulate them. But this isn't the first Democrats have caved. They are much more concerned about people thinking they're corrupt or biased. I have no idea why.
