POTUS/General Election Thread 2020 + Aftermath

[ReluctantSamurai]

The weak, passivity of republicans in the face of frothing mania and delusions from their leader and their base are enough to make them utterly complicit.

I think Republicans are anything but weak. They've managed minority rule for the last 20 years despite winning the popular vote only once. They get their conservative judges appointed, they get gerrymandering done (and with this election cycle that's only going to get worse), and they've consistently blocked the majority of legislation Democrats try to enact.

I think rank and file Republican complicity is just due to utter stupidity, and because the Republican Party has no real platform to advance, other than screwing Democrats, and would be ecstatic if the US was a single party autocracy headed by Republicans.
