“Biden’s chances of building bridges with Republicans becomes almost impossible.”
Biden’s efforts to build bridges with Republicans should be severely limited. And contingent on an actual demonstration by Republicans that they have stopped their shit.
A clear, declarative statement by all Republican leaders that trump lost before being willing to negotiate with them, for example.
It’s shameful that a leading political party in our own country has to be treated like a foreign adversary that we’re trying to hammer out a non-proliferation treaty with. But that’s what the a Republican Party is: indistinguishable from Iraq or the Taliban.
"It’s shameful that a leading political party in our own country has to be treated like a foreign adversary that we’re trying to hammer out a non-proliferation treaty with"
Considering that more than a few Republicans are deferential to if not bought outright by Russia...I think they are, for all intents and purposes, foreign adversaries.
But Trump is by no means done. In fact, he's really just gotten started. Now he can finally "pivot" to a place he's most comfortable: on the sidelines, complaining, criticizing and deriding others from a position of RIGHTEOUS GRIEVANCE and INDIGNATION. With nearly 48% of the electorate on his "side" and 2/3 of them believing the election was "stolen," and with a free Twitter account in good standing, Trump can continue to broadcast his incoherent diatribes 24/7, lambasting whomever he pleases with impunity and endless echoes on Twitter to ensure continuous media attention, day in and day out. I fully expect and am willing to wager Trump will "launch" his new "platform" on Inauguration Day--likely in a deep Red state with a "rally"--and that the media will fall in line, dutifully covering it as "news" and giving it the false credibility it so rich doesn't deserve, all in the name of "fairness" and "balance."
1) That Twitter will come to their senses and delete Drumpf's account after Biden's inauguration.
2) That he won't be tied up with distractions, namely, the financial and legal migraines, that could send him to prison or the poor house, and his health, which will only worsen from here on out (and it's shitty to begin with!).
I think that when the indictments come down and Diaper Donnie fills up that diaper and shows how much of a blubbering coward he is he'll become the broken toy the Red Hats can't play with anymore. At no point should justice relent and say he's had enough. We all need to see what "fullest extent of the law" really means when it comes to this villain.
Wish it were so but I think if any such damning evidence were available we would have already seen it by now. You see, he literally could shoot somebody and his base wouldn't care. In fact they'd love it. Donnie wants nothing more than to be a victim and a martyr, forever adored by a loyal base of uneducated Christians.
There's been tons of evidence. Right now he's president and that office gives him a shield to hide behind. Once he's a regular citizen all bets are off. Also, he can still be charged for what he was impeached for.

Except their delusion of choice is Jesus instead of Allah. A different name for the same non-existent deity.
For many it’s not so much a delusion as an excuse. “I get to do these vile things because god is on my side.”
Even when, especially when, the vile things are in direct opposition to the teachings of their supposed “faith”.
Nailed it!

That'll depend on two things:
1) That Twitter will come to their senses and delete Drumpf's account after Biden's inauguration.
2) That he won't be tied up with distractions, namely, the financial and legal migraines, that could send him to prison or the poor house, and his health, which will only worsen from here on out (and it's shitty to begin with!).

Donnie makes the world of belief-based reality magically come true for them. Not even God can do that for them.
He does this by making up stuff and lying to tell them what they want to hear. It's called demagoguery.
