2024 a ‘Consolation’ Match?

Two headlines from this morning’s Politico. Their juxtaposition is entirely intentional.

Republicans think Biden is an ‘easy target’ to unite their party

Dems relish Trump-Biden rematch

Bottom line: Both sides think their likely opponent is weak. Both sides are correct in those assessments. 

The craziness of our current political dilemma is such that the odds-on likely matchup in November, ‘24 is Biden vs. Trump. Alas, my poor country deserves better than this. And no, I’m not plugging for a third party candidate.
