Same way "Joe the Plumber", Kim Davis, Kyle Rittenhouse, etc. GOP elevates their story to the national spotlight to "prove their point" and then leaves them out to dry after their 15 minutes of fame have been used up.

This is very interesting. With all the crowd funding methods, would it be theoretically possible to put something like this together? Granted, the person has to accept, but imagine being able to pay a politician to just disappear.

Republicans: The government needs to stop trying to be our babysitter

Also Republicans: this

Last November, the Iowa Lottery posted the wrong Powerball numbers, citing a “human reporting error”. However, the Iowa Lottery said that the temporary winners – people who had the numbers at issue – could keep their prizes, which ranged from $4 to $200.

I wonder how this precedent is going to be factored into this situation. $4-$200 is much easier to say "just let them have it" than the jackpot

Yeah, they're really pushing the envelope of technology with this new fangled online play.

See, here's an example of someone who thinks Biden is perfect! CULT CULT CULT /s

If Dems ran a viable alternative to Biden then it's likely they would have the nomination. Unfortunately, the DNC set their strategy and have no choice but to see it through to the end at this point.

Best thing Republicans could do is run Nikki Haley. She has a real chance of pulling centrists to the right against Biden and his age.
