24. One difference between 2024 and 2016

Four years of seeing the former guy actually running the joint. That's how he turned a 2.8 million vote loss in the popular vote into a 7.1 million vote loss. I really, truly don't see anything happening since the 2020 election that would make the former guy reap anything but an even more lop-sided loss if he's the Republican nominee in 2024. His dim-witted fans are as vocal as ever, but not more numerous.
