Biden had a rough speech to sparse crowd in Tampa

Gary Johnson and Bill Weld were two successful republican governors who were tossed aside in favor of the GOP turning into a cult for Donald Trump.  Nothing matters outside of the D or R next to the name and that is why were are in a situation where 150 million votes are going to be cast for either a senile man or a man with the baggage and rap sheet that would have his supporters gleefully running to turn on the electric chair if anyone else had it.

That is what intrigues.  We can sit here and trash Biden and Trump, but we both know that they are the only "viable" options, because viability is the D or R next to your name.  No magical force prevented people from electing Johnson/Weld in 2016, but they were a non-viable 3rd party, so they were out of luck.

And even conservatives with a brain know Trump isn't the best man for the job, but they're stuck.  They'd love a DeSantis/Haley ticket, but they aren't going to get it because much like in 2016 what you do for the GOP matters less than if you are Donald Trump.  


So that's about it.  You get Biden or you get Trump, try not to think too much about who else you'd rather be allowed to vote for, you'll just drive yourself crazy.

The now Trump voters don't belong to a cult, they are hardworking people who want to provide shelter, food and a great life for their families. 

DeSantis and Hailey would win 2 terms and give you even more of what you wanted, while Trump is a coin flip to even beat Biden.  This is why it's a Trump cult, conservatives have a yellow brick road right in front of them, but they'd rather crawl through glass to please Trump.  Explain to me the thinking man's reasoning behind the GOP going with Trump and ????? over DeSantis and Hailey.
