In a fair, moral world, slow Joe and bimbo would be out on their a$$es in 2024. But the corrupt left cheated their way to "victory" in 2020 and I don't see fair elections happening in 2022 or 2024 either.
I don't have a good feeling about this. I don't know who would unless you're a complete moron... which half the country is.
The republicans can easily win in 2024 if they run a more moderate conservative without a lout of baggage. Strong fiscal conservative, reasonable on 2a, but moderate on social issues. Not trump, and most of the governors probably have too much baggage from covid. So probably a senator with 8 to 12 years of experience who doesn't get into twitter fights.
That pulls the republican party back together into one unit and captures undecided voters. The problem with our primary system is sometimes the candidate who can win the general can't make it through the primary.

RE: Malaise
Some of you need to step away from the key board and stop spending 6 to 14 hours every day on this site or any other. Just as 16 years ago or 12 years ago or 8 years ago or 4 years ago. You can turn it all out and four years from now everything will still be OK.
Like it or not us older people have lived most of our life and change is coming. You wont like it any better than your father did or his father did when your dad was growing up. You can run that back for 100 years....
yet some how people find away to adapt and get by and live
No matter what any of us think if these young people wake up one morning and find they must fight for their way of life. They will do just that. This is no more or less than the late 60s to mid 70s repeating. Just as things always seem to do every 30 to 40 years.
The only difference is the 24/7 world connection we now have. We did not have that growing up so every one of us over 55 most likely thought one day in the near future they would have to put their life on the line fighting Russia. Everytime that buzzer would go off and you had to get under your desk or cover your head while sitting in a school hallway. The thought of the end of the world was close or one day you would be fighting for your live. You are now choosing to sit under that desk for all of those hours.
Walk away from the key board. Go outside and breath. The sun is still shinning and you are not dying at least not today, from the air you take in. Some people are spending way more time with this crap than they should...
but then again, it must be the best part of their day. They seem to repeat it enough .

Lol with all due respect, who wrote this?
You just ignoring all of the massive political shifts and gains Trump achieved not only in the 2016 election but even greater shifts unheard of for a Republican in half a century or more in 2020 election? That’s why many who actually study elections and are not DC shills say that it’s ‘strange’ that Trump didn’t win this election (he did though )

Changing Congress and the White House can help, but not if dominion machines are still being used in 2022.
The people could bring change in the past, but things have changed. Kids are taught lies that the TV insists are the truth.
People accept an obviously corrupt election because TV says it was a lie.
And we have 40 million here who don't speak or write English well enough to figure out what's going on and TV lies to them.
The inertia is ignorance and Public Education is enemy #1. Don't address that first and it's all over in 15 more years. #2 is TV. It has to be divorced from corporate ownership in order to restore sanity. #3 is axing Dominion.
But here is something I never thought I'd live to say. We likely have another year if we take back the Senate or House. I'm not sure we have 4 years at all. You know damn well China will strike while they have a senile mole in the White House. They won't wait for a competent person in the White House. Taiwan's next. Then the Philippines, then Japan. Then war in the Middle East and all while they can rely upon Joe Nero to fiddle while the New Rome burns.

Do you really believe that? I pray you're right but this time feels different. Almost every other swing back to the right has been done before any grave and lasting damage could be done to the country. This feels like everything has been sped up and they may well do us irreparable harm before it's over.
They hit the ground running, right out of the gate they started implementing their radical agenda and look at the damage they've done in a short 7 months.

Senators usually do not make good Presidents. Successful Governors do, as they have executive experience leading.

That's because they have corporate backing, 25 - 30 years worth of our brainwashed and apologetic children, and Chinese infiltration in place. Never before have the young been this clueless, an enemy so active in our structures and greedy CEO's so complicit. The fatal mistake is our CEO's think China is their lap dog. If they'd take the Rose Colored business glasses off they would see that they were coddling a fully grown wolf in that lap where it is so close it could grab them by the throat before they could cast it aside.

I said in another thread that I've lived with a nagging sense of foreboding for the last 10-12 years, always feeling like the axe was gonna fall sooner or later. I'm not obsessed with it but it's there in the back of my mind most always. Every now and then it comes to the fore for one reason or another, this is one of those times.
As much as I don't care for Biden he's just the person currently occupying the office, his controllers now know they can put anyone in that office who will do their bidding and that scares the crap out of me.

I am usually an optimist but I can see where you are coming from and I share those concerns. While we are usually focused on the USA, I must remind all that this **** is going on worldwide. It is planned, it is co-ordinated and it has been unleashed fast. We are seeing things that we never thought could happen here. All is not lost - yet. There are still a huge number of freedom loving people in this country who are still fast asleep and better wake up soon.

The issue with governors in 2024 is coming out of covid they have all had to do things that have pissed people off. People will dig up something they did early in the pandemic and use it to hang them in he primary. At this point they all probably have something that will piss off either the hard line or moderate Republicans.
The senators have had the luxury of not being under the same microscope.

Fully half of the population are idiots. About half of them haven't the slightest idea why they support the left, they just do. The other half probably thinks they know what they support and hope it will benefit them, they're delusional.
You can't kill or expel half the population. As long as these people exist in those numbers, numbers that appear to be growing at an alarming rate, we have a bad problem here in freedomville.

When will it hit those of you that care more about party...
its not the person you put into the white house that's going to affect change. Its those republican lazy asses in the senate and house that most working people hate and formed the opinion (rightly so) they dont give a crap about them.
Till that changes or Another Trump comes along that can drag the republican party closer to working Americans. The republican party has lost. They had a real chance to change opinions after Trump won but the old school diehard republicans fought the president at every turn. They waited too late to jump on board.
Lets be honest most republicans in the house and senate over the last 25 years give off the feeling...
they are better than those working stiffs. If you cant win the working class, the republican party has no chance, today unless they win 2022 and move even closer to the center.
