The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

"Biden does not have the kind of energetic base that Trump has, so will *enough* of them get off their butts and vote? "

There are about 20 people in what I consider my "inner circle", lol. We all despise Trump, although not all Democrats. They will all be voting, there is no way anybody is sitting out this election. I'm not betting any money on it, but I think there will be a record turnout. I think Biden wins popular vote by 10,000,000, trouncing the 7 million he won by in 2020. How that turns out electorally, I haven't a clue. Trump basically spends every day shooting himself in the foot. When America was in crisis during covid and on Jan 6th, Trump failed miserably, he was worse than inept, he was dangerously derelict. How does this translate to Trump getting more votes?
I know MAGA will never leave him, but who cares what MAGA does, they are a minority. Independents will determine the 2024 winner, Trump has done nothing to help his standing with them.
