"They [Republican party officials] are finding out that it’s not so easy to get divorced when you’ve given up your identity, pride, and morality in a marriage of convenience." – Dan Rather
“Democrats need to settle on a message about what they’re for. Then they need to be ruthless when it comes to going after Republicans. Democrats play chess. Republicans eat the pieces. It’s not the same game." – Reed Galen
“If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.” - President Dwight D. Eisenhower
Hopefully, your prognosis on the 2024 election results will prove to be correct. The possibility that the democrats turn to the right, which presumes that America’s corporate and banking interests turn their support towards the democrats, is disconcerting. But, as you point out, anything can happen in a world where the republicans have self-converted into the party of racism, Putinism and xenophobia.
Reminds me of a couple of my favorite quotes:
"They [Republican party officials] are finding out that it’s not so easy to get divorced when you’ve given up your identity, pride, and morality in a marriage of convenience." – Dan Rather

"Republicans eat the pieces" Great quote!

Yes, it will be chilling to see what drama Trump will pull out of his hate-hat when he loses...
