I'm not trying to both sides this as we both will agree which side is the far bigger threat to our democracy, but please remember you guys ran a guy that couldn't meet with more than 1 person in his administration for his last 2 years and the one time he has to be in front of the cameras, he completely fell apart, leading to the party scrambling for option 2 with very little time to allow that option to define themselves (and definitely no time for the party to agree on who would be a best 2nd option.  

The fractured nature of the political opposition to this current nuttery is def a problem.   I hope a bright light answer emerges by Nov 2028.

Your statement really applies beyond politics as well.

The American public is more wise to this administration than the elites are... Yet the elites keep aquiescing anyway. Media, very smart pundits (ie. Ezra Klein, Yglesias, etc.) law firms, universities, corporations.

almost as if the people that pay them are in a file of some sort that could prove embarrassing.

To this end

the problem is that CEOs are spineless by design because they will *always* sublimate what they know they should do with the excuse that they have a fiduciary responsibility to their shareholders not to. Don't bother looking to that quarter for anything but leaked stories of self-justifying angst.

Oh I know... Even though collective action would probably be better for business in the long run

"Collective action" is for communists.

Collusive action, however ...

The criteria being considered here were (1) not a moron, and (2) follow the law. Biden was both.

I agree, just wish we could have had a criteria called 3) electability.... definitely feel like that might have been able to keep us from this current debacle.

Isn’t the problem that Trump was electable after all?
