re: #121 Wendell Zurkowitz ((slave to the waffle light))
Up until he froze up and totally bungled reaction to Covid-19, Trump was a safe gamble for the GOP elite despite all his other shortcomings.
And had it not been for the pandemic, I believe he would have won re-election and the GOP could have gone on to institute laws and other measures to ensure that it would never lose again.
And I say hogwash. Evidence: the 2018 midterms. DT brought out the dems and dem voters in a big way even without covid. And. there. are. more. of. us.
