Tropical Soulvanglical isn't accepting any kind of rhetoric claiming he's just Monday Morning Quarterbacking. On the contrary, he's telling it like it is. For example, it's only in the modern age that elections have to be some kind of spectator sport, and TSV distinctly remembers a country that actually went out of its way not to make its elections into spectator sports. That was before most sports were invented, and elections were actually gentleman's agreement type exercises. What TSV remembers, however rightly or wrongly, is that the concept of "running mates" wasn't a thing. Whenever two people ran for President, the person who lost was presumed to become the winner's Vice President, so that way it's a balanced ticket perceived to be as fair as possible to the people. Whether that worked in practice is another matter entirely, but suffice it to say it was a time when we tried our darndest to make it work. TSV's estimation as to when that changed was about the time of Lincoln, and that it was just before or just after that that we introduced the concept of "running mates." Fast forward several decades and we started inventing sports. Baseball, then basketball, then football. Some time after that, maybe the 60s TSV's wondering, is when we referred to elections as "horse races." The notion that elections are any kind of sport or race TSV's wondering must have been totally alien to the country's founders. It was over five years ago TSV remembers when Ari Melber asked Elizabeth Warren if she had to pick -any- running mate from the past or present, she named Teddy Roosevelt, a Republican, and that pretty much stunned Melber. Maybe now that TSV sees people like Schumer and company to be increasingly toxic as time goes on for being so anti-Biden as they still are, he doesn't see it as a "circular firing squad" like he criticized the phrasing thereof in a past base share, but more of an effort to put country over party. Hence, the more anti-Biden the rest of the country gets, the more pro-Biden TSV gets. He's digging his heels in, and he doesn't think the rest of the country gets it or appreciates what was done or trying to be done for them, particularly the young people who want to hate him (both TSV and Biden) over Israel. TSV wants to ask the country in two years time whether they still regard Biden as the bogeyman, and he thinks he's going to get an opposite answer from what he's getting now in the form of this year's election results. There could very well have been an opposite answer even in -this- election in the form of what TSV calls the Closet Kamalas. These are people TSV observes as going out of their way to go -trumptrumptrump- with all the hats and merch and truck flags, and then they get in that voting booth, and when they think no-one's looking from outside the booth curtain, they push "Kamala." When you have a district that goes 80% for -trump- and -everyone- has -trump- signs on their lawn in that district, about 20% qualifies as Closet Kamalas. So TSV warns -trumpshanders- not to party so hard right now, because TSV's Biden his time.
