It may happen for real someday, although I don't think 2024 is the right time. DeSantis may have ambitions to be the Bolsonaro of the north, and he has captured the land of elders and cubans, but he does not have the power to take over and lead the Trump cult to victory, unless the Democrats do something stupid like dumping Biden for Harris (horoscope score 3-17) or any other failed 2020 candidate.
Most of the Dem leadership is over 80. That's simply not viable in an era where the emerging votes are from the young, not old farts who needed encouragement. Biden cannot run next time, or we'll stand better than even odds of having 8 years of Ron DeSanctimonious. Trump may create a replay of 1912, with Trump in the role of Teddy Roosevelt, but let's not try that on for size. The fit may be less than it appears.
Nancy Pelosi is stepping down from all leadership roles in the House.
Pelosi, Steny Hoyer and Jim Clyburn are all out, and not a minute too soon. In their day, all were great; this is not their day. Silents are the wrong people to fight the good fight, and that's up next.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
