The enemedia loves to set up let’s-you-and-him fights.
At the presidential level, the easiest election to win is for a second term. The incumbent has powerful assets.
Trump failed to get reelected. Republicans should nominate someone else.
Well, Bush-type Republicans can win. For the sake of appearances.
Is it a coincidence that the _only_ Republican Presidents between Reagan and Trump were the Bushes? The other also-rans were Dole, McCain, and Romney. Perfectly acceptable alternatives for the Dems. Though they would have been savaged by the press, too, had they won. But the D’s beat them anyway.
The blue swing states are the only ones that have to be stolen to win the presidential election, so this doesn’t surprise me.
