This whole piece is a 'decent into the heart of darkness'.

If Democrats can’t beat a candidate as unpopular as Trump during a devastating pandemic and a massive economic contraction, then are they even capable of winning presidential elections anymore? Democracy, after all, is supposed to self-correct after mistakes, particularly mistakes as egregious as electing Donald Trump—whose unfitness for the nation’s highest office makes itself apparent with almost every passing day.

The question no leftist is prepared to ask, even under pain of death and rape: "What if I'm wrong?"

They can't imagine that Trump was the correction.

Trump was the release valve to prevent the system from overloading. They have spent the last four years making sure that release valve cannot be effective. I have absolutely no pity for them when something far more sinister comes after.

On the contrary, I think that release valve worked perfectly. They've been trying to plug it up, but they haven't stopped it. If Trump hadn't been elected, I'd honestly say we'd be headed towards a full-scale, no-shit, civil war that could have killed millions.

We dodged not only a bullet. We dodged, almost all of them.
