Sen. McCain vs. MAGA rioters: who would win?

You can lose by "being weak," or you can be a democracy-destroying maniac, break the rules and still lose (Trump).

OR: you can win with a positive message, broadening your coalition and appealing to the mainstream. See generally, George W. Bush and his two terms (too bad about that Iraq War and financial crisis though, it's what sunk McCain).

OR: you can acknowledge that in a democracy, you don't always win and don't always get your way, but that things usually turn out fine.

Fast-forwarding a bit:

Do you think Joe-freaking-Biden (the milquetoast cringe-factory and accused sexual assaulter) would have won against a sane and put-together Republican?

X Doubt

Fast forwarding? You need to rewind. If Trump, who is better than any of the weak Republicans, had not run in 2016 we would have Hillary as president from 2016-2024.

Trump is the only reason we had four years of sane presidency.

Biden is a puppet and the democrats have no intention of keeping him until 2024.

Bold assessment of the last 4 years sir

Side-note: I am pretty sure HRC would have been a one-term president due to Covid. Any president running in this year for re-election would have faced a stiff challenge. Although, if her response to it was good (and it may well have been), it's possible.

In reality, the media wouldn't have hyped covid if Hillary had won. Then she would have continued to rig the states from her position of power and won again. There's evidence she tried to steal at least three states in 2016.

how you sound

As for me, I think it's enlightening to ponder the historical trajectory of the GOP
