Absolutely right. From the perspective of winning 24, this was the worst possible outcome. Trump, whatever I’d like to think otherwise, will be portrayed as badly beaten, his handpicked candidates (for the most part) losing. High profile guys like Oz or Masters did not have good performances.
It sounds like you believe the election results. I think Hobbs, in AZ, had a good “performance” running the “election”. Fetterman, in PA, proved that you can run a wooden post, if you cheat enough.
I think that it’s more interesting that the Dems ran Fetterman in PA to prove precisely that. The goal for Democrats is to invalidate elections entirely, in America. Then, we will be like China.
And you are correct that this IS the worst possible outcome. MAGA was the only thing on the ballot, yesterday.
