I think what some people on our side don’t comprehend is that there are millions of voters in this country who think Biden has done a terrible job and in normal times would vote against him but they’ll re-elect him if he runs against Trump because they’ve been brainwashed/conditioned to fear and loathe DJT so much they don’t view it as a choice anymore. Elections today are won by whoever can get voters to fear the other side more. Trump is a gift to Democrats in that regard.

You are on to something there. And part of the problem is that Trump himself helped with that conditioning. His blunt manner (which I like) pushes away many folks in the squishy middle.

I’d feel better if Trump was learning from his understandable past missteps (I say understandable because Trump is a businessman, not a politician). But evidently Trump is not learning.

Case in point, the 2022 midterms. There's no reason the Democrats did as well as they did. Inflation was booming, gas prices were high, parents were pissed over Covid school closures yet they mitigated their losses by running against Trump and his handpicked candidates.
