Unfortunately because people are inherently lazy and stupid. Too lazy to vote and too stupid to realize what happens if they don't.

Or to lazy to care. People will think, I don't need to vote, no way someone else will vote for him if he's in prison. And then he ends up getting elected.

I pray this doesn't happen. But I also fear that if DeSantis does get the nom, that not enough people are paying attention to him and they will think, eh, at least he's not Trump, and Biden is getting old. I don't really care enough who wins to vote.

Maybe I'm just overly jaded. I hope not. I would love for the Republican party to just implode and destroy itself but it never happens.

Biden getting old is the bigger problem than Trump in jail. Democrats are holding on to the incumbent always has more sway. - Pippy Quintas Aug 3, 12:51 7
- Biden getting old is not a problem for me personally. It’s the reason why we have a Vice President. -- nm - Qale Aug 3, 13:17 1
  - honestly not me either. But it clearly another attack issue by the GOP that has credence. -- nm - Pippy Quintas Aug 3, 13:53
- Newsom is the heir apparent. Whitmer could make waves too. -- nm* - Fuzzy Aug 3, 13:06 1
  - Thank you for this. I was racking my brain. who? who could it be. I'd campaign hard for Whitmer. -- nm - Pippy Quintas Aug 3, 13:18
- No one knew Obama was "in the wings" until he started winning primaries. -- nm - TWuG Aug 3, 12:53 2
  - I do think the party could do more to highlight up and coming politicians. -- nm - mara Aug 3, 13:01 1
    - Agreed -- nm - Pippy Quintas Aug 3, 13:04
