As someone suffering from Trump exhaustion syndrome, I actually don't care who takes his place... and that's sad. I never thought I'd say it... but I miss Bill Clinton.
that you don't want to hear, to discuss, to debate anymore? What are these issues if you have?
For example, if the number of apprehensions of illegals crossing our borders were to soar to an absolutely unmanageable number... those who oppose real border security would still see those who do as racists. In this atmosphere... I also have issue exhaustion.

My "identity-based" here includes your "personalities/identities/parties". I complained about this before: American election politics is becoming too much like a sport. Supporters/voters fight so hard not because they are so divided on issues, it's because of their supported identity (person, party). This identity is their team and their team has to win, beat the other team, regardless of the issues. So, the politics, to most people, is identity-based politics, not issue-based politics.
I am just imaging what if R and D merged into one party - one identity. So, all voters are one-identity supporters. Voters will still be divided on candidates, but this division is much more issue-based. It's like fans debated on who should start as QB, Crist or Rees. Our focus is more on football issues related to these 2 QBS, not other things. And our difference and debate are much healthy because we are all one-identity, Notre dame football supporters.
Both sides WANT this issue. That has zero to do with personalities and everything to do with both sides wanting to maintain their ISSUES for votes at all cost. Shit, Orange could have had 25 billion for his fookin Wall last year, and even that wasn’t enough for the knuckle draggers. Look no further than yer own idjits if border security is yer issue.

He/she will be a terrible, untrustworthy person, and a fundamental threat to the country.
They will say this without irony.
....though in predictable, mind-numbingly automaton fashion, you will rationalize anything the Dem candidate has done.
I loathe Biden's politics, but he doesn't scare me, and I don't think that he is "uniquely horrible". I just don't think that the MSM will let him get the nomination without converting over to socialism.

By comparison, I'm actually warming to Biden. He's a little goofy but not offensive.
on important issues in the past. Against the first Iraq war (Bush Sr), strangely, support 2nd Iraq war (Bush Jr). Strongly against Bush/McCain's Iraq surge, Against Obama's Operation Neptune Spear that kills Bin Laden... He is always on wrong side of history.

The latest odds released by Bovada show Donald Trump remains as the +200 betting favorite with potential Democratic nominees Kamala Harris and Joe Biden nipping at his heels at +600 and +700 respectively. Since his election in 2016, this is the highest odds for Trump’s re-election and the lowest odds for any of the potential Democratic challengers. Democrat / Independent Bernie Sanders has also climbed up to +600.
At the same time, the Democratic party is a -150 favorite to win the 2020 election while the Republicans have their highest odds yet at +120.

Interesting that Andrew Yang leads Gillibrand, Booker, and Gabbard.

that "Way too early polls show Sanders and Biden leading the Dem nominees AND beating Trump."
Maybe because he only has to beat one person. The Dem nominee. He has a straightforward path the 2020 election.
Meanwhile, every Dem nominee has to beat every other Dem nominee before they get a shot at Trump. They all have a tougher path to the 2020 election. That's why they have longer odds. That's it.
The odds you present are not head-to-head odds.
Lessoneth overeth.
they'd have better odds than +600 versus Trump's +200.
Not by a huge margin, but still favorites at the moment.
