I support them because if I don't like what they do in 2025, they won't try to stop me from voting to replace them in 2028.
I find the whole thing funny.
Republicans truly believe Biden won because Democrats changed voting laws. (I don't know if that's true, since Trump shanked his base like a meth-head having a manic episode, and when people in your own base feel betrayed then Rust-Belters he flipped probably felt even less positively disposed.) Naturally, thinking Democrats won unfairly, Republicans want voting laws tightened...and are accused of cheating for doing so. You, a Blue Faction member, will probably say your side was justified in making those changes, I don't care to argue the point, but Red Faction feel equally justified.
While Blue Factioners demonize Red Faction, voting Blue No Matter Who, convinced if they don't keep playing along, in what was recognized for quite some time as a rigged game, Democracy itself will die; Red Factioners demonize Blue Faction, convinced if they don't keep playing along in what they too recognize as a rigged game they'll suffer disenfranchisement; when in actuality the elite will dispense with democracy, disenfranchise Red and Blue, and leave both sides morally and financially bankrupt.
Silver Lining? 20 years from now when I'm bald and rockin' wooden dentures I can remind everybody I was right as usual.
