If you look at the recent polls it is not working to blame Putin, Trump or the Easter Bunny.  To quote a Dem strategist who obviously declined to be named, "“I think this is going to be a biblical disaster,” said one such Democratic strategist, who did not wish to be named. “This is the reality we are in as Democrats and no one wants to face it.”

Their numbers with Independents, Hispanics and even young people are abysmal.  Even a goodly number of Democrats are very unhappy with the current state of affairs and have significant buyers remorse.  Frankly, the best thing that can happen for Dems is to lose the House and Senate in the mid-terms so they can share the blame with the GOP come 2024.  But for the sake of the country it needs to happen.  Dementia Joe needs to become a lame duck, senile President and I predict he will not run again in 2024.  I hope and pray he does but even if he doesn't Kamala will be the heir apparent and she will only be marginally harder for a good GOP candidate to beat in 2024 than Joe.  If Joe declines to run in 2024 grab your popcorn because the long knives will be out for Kamala and the list of Dems wanting the nomination will be long and brutal.
