So many of us said the same thing about an empty suit who gave the keynote at the 2004 DNC Convention and then announced February 10, 2007. At least he was young then.
He wasn’t running against Trump (save in 2016; he hasn’t mentioned the big “personal insult” of the Hillary rejection of late). His election opponents were RINOs who wanted him to win and helped him win with their deliberately weakened campaigns. More people are waking up to the long-standing one-party rule at the federal level too.
