Again, you certainly wouldn't mind if I wait until someone other than the media or an anonymous poster on an internet forum says so.
Lots of republicans, including
George W. Bush,
Mitt Romney,
Maryland governor Larry Hogan,
Senator Pat Toomey,
Former Ohio governor John Kasich,
Former New Jersey governor Christine Todd Whitman,
Former New York rep Susan Molenari,
Former Trump homeland security chief of staff Miles Taylor,
Colin Powell,
The Lincoln Project.
Former republican rep Charley Dent,
Former republican senator Chuck Hagel,
Former defense secretary William Cohen,
and Former Michigan governor Rick Snyder among others,
are saying it. All the networks are now saying it. Leaders of other countries are saying it. You can argue that all of these are moderate to moderately conservative republicans. Which was the point I'm making. The party was competitive when they supported it.
Now...
If either party goes for ideological purity, that party no longer represents America. The left was dismissive of Biden for accommodating the right. But Biden won. Not just the primaries,but the general election.
For the very reason the extremists of the left and the right dismissed him. He retained his trust in America, the trust they had lost.
