what does that make Trump?

The 47th POTUS.

topical issues like peace, climate, genocide, rights, hate, juvenile bullying, criminal bullying, felony conviction, bigotry

Every single one of those issues was put to measure last week and came up short to "the economy." Idpol has been the Dem's running charge since Occupy and has netted them exactly (1) election since Obama's win as incumbent. It's just not the winning strategy in national elections.

Even then, Bidens win was despite that, not because of it.

Exactly. Milquetoast old white man got the most votes of any president ever. Work with that.

The COVID situation was so specific that it 1) will never happen again, so don't count on it, and 2) let a single-issue candidate win.

None of those issues mattered because the US system showed everyone it did not matter.

The system had 4 years to enact any form of consequences and there where none. That MUST mean trump was right and it was all lies and nonsense aimed at discrediting him.

And Trumps campaign ran on idpol this time.. is she black? Illegal mexicans in prison getting sex changes, kids getting sex changed.. you know, the counter to dem IdPol. They pulled it into the extreme and the Dems took the bait.. they did not push back.

With the blatant lies of the magas and their fragile egos.. I think the only thing that might have made a difference is call trump fat and stupid, bully him to his face and see if you can make him throw a tantrum or make him cry. Same with Vance.. are you wearing eyeliner? Would you not be more comfortable on a couch?
