I poorly worded my post. Undoubtedly there was a 'blue wave' which saw the Democrats make huge gains.
I mean... as if we saw Trump winning at first back in 2016 lol. Its too early to claim it's doomsday for the dems
True, but it was the total dismissal of Trump (which I was guilty of too) that has me worried for 2020. It's as if people are saying that Trump being voted out by whatever Democratic nominee gets the nod is a certainty when getting the other '60%' out to vote and make it happen is anything but.
Yet his nomination was able to land seats in their judiciary and some house seats too due to turnout. Turnout is exactly what the Dems need, especially in battleground states.
If what is needed is a well known, broadly liked candidate who is good on their feet in a debate and can hold their own against Trump in debates and the larger political back and forth then Biden should be who everyone puts their shoulder into.
