Honestly, PR really doesnt matter anymore after Biden has proven you can shamelessly cheat the election and then say "No refunds, American, you are stuck with me for 4 years, in fact, no, make that 8".
Doesnt help that Im sure that there will be asskissers that will look at this and say "At least Trump isnt around".
I want to believe that these times are redpilling a lot of people but, at the same time, those 4 years of leftist societal temper tantrum werent enough so why the hell these next 4 years will be any different?
The only reason they were able to cheat in 2020 is that the Republican RINOs were in on it. Not because they wanted Biden, but because they -hated- Trump.
Now they pay the political price, they no longer have any positive reason to support the democrats doing it again, and many got a very rude awakening that the Biden handler's promises were worth nothing.
To combat this, the Democrats tried to enshrine in law what they'd need to cheat again without Republicans support (And in doing so, further disincentivized Republican aid in cheating a second time) through their legislative push to enshrine into law that which helped them. Then the Republicans filibustered. Well, then the Democrats tried to float packing the court, the Republicans filibustered. Well alright, then they tried to end the filibuster. Joe Manchin, a Blue Dog Democrat, said fuck no. And I guarantee that while he was the loudest the small handful of other Blue Dogs also said no.
Alright, alright. This is solvable. Put pressure on the controlled opposition to bend a couple RINOs to the fore. Oh wait... what do you mean they are losing power?
Do you see the problem? They can't cheat a second time, at least not so long as the status quo remains the status quo. They got in through cheating because of an accomplice who no longer has any reason to continue aiding them, and all their efforts to not need an accomplice crashed and burned. And those efforts further pushed the accomplice away so they can't seek to renew that alliance even if they had some sort of carrot. What is worse, those accomplices are rapidly losing power themselves as their method of cheating was so blatant it caused an absolute fervor in the public to begin stabbing them.
Or, to put it a bit more succinctly. The Democrats overreached, and the RINOs proved incompetent.
