I live 100ft away from a retired House rep in his 80s who I see at least monthly at our neighborhood social; he has said to me almost verbatim what Duncan said here. Older members are terrified of walking away from the 20-person 24/7 support network you can't even get in a high end nursing home.

So the Democrats' strategy is clear: offer people no meaningful alternative and just hope voters show up in sufficient numbers to overwhelm Republican vote suppression and gerrymandering because Trump is so bad they feel compelled to vote for an opposition they rightly neither like nor trust. Great.

The unifying theory of all American conservatives is that they all demand that you be their friends at gunpoint, and tell them how handsome and special they are
The conservative project always makes much more sense when you realize it's just run by upper middle class American christian nationalist who are basically completely fine in material position but furious the entire country doesn't bow to their weird cultural preferences.
