    Who are we kidding? Their base is so delusional it doesn’t matter what happens - they will never vote anything but Rethuglican. One moment Trump is the shadow president actually running the show, the next it’s Biden’s fault but he’s also a clone. It’s amazing they remember to breath on a regular basis.

      It isn’t the base that we need to flip. No party can win with ONLY it’s base. It is the roughly 1/3 of Americans who are independents that need to be convinced and increasingly they are rather sick and tired of the social nonsense they see from Democrats. They are sick of the identity politics BS and even if they might otherwise lean Democrat, they might not in the upcoming election.
