Dear F,
I think there is real reason to be hopeful that Joemala can "turn it around."
But if I were a betting man with real money on the line, I see no better than "even odds," and, even then, I would consider the situation so volatile that I would not wager.
It is high time we start talking about dividing the United States into two independent polities.
I see nothing to lose but the anchor around our necks.
AND!
Since red states are densely populated with stupid, ignorant, poorly-educated people, I believe it will not be long before the sewer backs up on their emergent theocratic oligarchies and they seek to re-establish union with The United States Of Compassion And Science.
When that request is made, we will consider their request only on Blue State terms.
Red States will have no say-so.
It will be total submission to the will of the Blue States - or no deal.
Take it or leave it.
The yahoos have done enough damage, not only to the United States of America, but to themselves. (It is impossible for human beings to be hateful, racist and cruel without being poisoned by their own venom.)
Contemplating the prospect of two independent polities - and the likely desire that "Jesusland" rejoin the "United States," it would also be wise to mandate a "trial period" during which "Jesusland" must comply with certain mandated "milestones of civilization" (and acculturation to Blue State norms), or they can stay in self-imposed, dumbf*ck banishment. (Admission to the European Union included such milestones.)
Let Jesuslanders live in their "conservative" "Christian" theocracy until simmering in that hateful, spiteful, vengeful stew is so painful they scream "Uncle!"
A fundamental difference between American "conservatives" and "others" is that "conservatives" need a satanic whipping boy, whereas we "others" just need to make good lives for ourselves, our families and our open, inclusive communities -- communities based on kindness, compromise and creativity, all in service of The General Welfare, The Common Good and a truly Social Contract. These three qualities and aspirations are indispensable. Notably, the fascist impulse that has taken deep root in the United States is hostile to all three.
Racism, The Division Of The United States Into Two Separate Polities, And The Sudden Collapse Of The Soviet Union
Blue States Secede: "F*ck The South!"
Why "Absolutists" Prefer To See "Relativists" Dead... Whereas "Relativists" Prefer That "Absolutists" Just Mind Their Own Business
Trump cultists see liberals dead liberals want to see trump cultists mind their own business left alone leave alone
In Their Heart Of Hearts, Trump Cultists Want Liberals Dead. On The Other Side Of The Aisle, Liberals Want Conservatives To Just Leave Them Alone (And To Leave Religion Out Of Policy- Making)

"Texas GOP Chair Proposes Red State Secession. (Please do.)"
Remember.
EVERYTHING starts with the verbal or written expression of ideas.
There is no other way.
Furthermore, "forewarned is forearmed."
In the main, Red State Trumpistas are Armageddon Cheerleaders, members of an end-time, apocalyptic death cult, who -- specifically -- want liberals and progressives to die. (This same death cult ideation has made it inevitable -- and now obligatory -- that Trumpistas refuse to wear COVID masks in public. The "good guys" in our ongoing culture war are up against people who are eager to proclaim: "I wouldn't believe that even if it were true." Refusal to accept the result of November's election is an illuminating case in point.)
Our failure to openly discuss division of the United States into two independent polities is not just perilous, but reckless.
The writing is on the wall.
Finally, the scenario I outline above is NOT bad news.
Rather, this is golden opportunity to break free of The Death Trap set by Bible Belt confederates whose passion for injustice triggered The Civil War, and whose insurrectionist flags the current generation of neo-confederates continue to display... when not preoccupied with exhibiting swastikas.

PS I am loath to make the following observation in writing. However, people almost always "vote their wallets." And since it is only Wall Street's "irrational exuberance" that keeps us from acknowledging that we are already in a Depression, the likelihood that Depression becomes evident during the first years of Biden's administration is of a very high order. And when market exuberance turns to depression, there will be fiscal, economic and commercial hell to pay. And we will be stuck in Shit Creek shallows just as the 2024 election season begins. I don't think Trump himself will be physically fit enough to run, but I can easily see winning tickets selected from the following candidate pool. Princess Handbag. Jared Kushner. Tucker Carlson. Nikki Haley. Ted Cruz. Ron DeSantis. Donald Trump Junior. Mike Pompeo.

Again, it is time to promote conversation concerning the separation of the United States into two independent polities.
That way, we may not need to flee the country.

I venture there will be numerous violent acts by Trump cultists and right-wing militia groups.
I wish Joe Biden the very best and harbor some measure of hope that he and Kamala Harris will turn the tide.
But I also think it is prudent to consider separating the "United" States into two independent polities.
