Our nation is exhausted from the CONSTANT division. Any hope for a return to some sort of civility will be grasped onto like a lifeboat. Don’t over think this. The Biden campaign is pretty savvy and I’m sure Obama is giving his feedback on this sort of thing as well.

I know Dems tend to be a neurotic bunch (at least I know I am), but my advice is to avoid getting pulled into constant “what if”-s as that only drains critical energy we’re going to need to win this battle.
