That’s a good point.The base controls the party now. There is no turning back. The days of Bush, Romney, McCain "moderates" controlling the party is over. They ride the Tiger of white nationalism, Neo confederates, far right fascist, racism and bigotry since Nixon. And now the tiger threw them off and is devouring them. Having moderates losing to Obama twice and Trump winning 4 years ago has justified the base's thinking for 30 years that "RINOS" don't win. Now the 2020 election "fraud" will be the new birtherism to delegitimize Biden and even Kamala if she runs in 2024.
Having a white dude at the top of the ticket defanged the usual scare tactics they had been trying.
Obama was the first time they had seen this and coming off Bush they didn’t have any players to put forth.
Kamala is mostly the front-runner for the nomination if Biden doesn’t run so they kind of have to use Trumpism to beat her.
