Look at the Speaker votes. To agree on someone they had to pick someone that even most congress people hadn’t even heard of. Like a day after he won maga is mad at him for calling George Floyd a victim and already wanting to kick him out despite him supporting Trump’s insurrection
MAGA demands candidates agree with them 110%, non magas want to go back to passive evil that has plausible deniability. They’re both incredibly stubborn and while they won’t vote D, they’ll stay home or protest vote if it’s not their favorite candidate. If Trump is the candidate a significant amount of non trump Republicans won’t vote for him. If it’s anyone besides trump, the magas will still vote trump or just stay home.
On the democratic side a lot of voters really dont want Biden as their president, but will vote for him just to not get a Republican.
It’s a shitty political situation, but it’s unlikely to result in trump as president again.
Why won’t the democrats support a moderate republican speaker? This way they could rob the extremists in the republican party of all power. It’s not like they’ll get a democratic speaker atm anyway.
I wish I shared your optimism.
