Donald Trump is the American voters' consistent response to the excesses and consistent shortcomings of the Obama presidency, the Hillary Clinton candidacy, the Biden presidency and, most recently, the Kamala Harris candidacy.

Any chance Democrats, and notably the Party's emergent, rabidly progressive Left wing, will get the message? Before this century is out?

If Joe Biden is the best (or even one of the best) leaders that Democrats can come up with, your Party is in a lot worse shape than you realize. Based on his 50 years+/- in political life it is obvious that he lacks any moral compass, he lacks a rational governing philosophy, he surrounds himself with yes people and he is dishonest. He is a liar, mean spirited and inherently bigoted. Laying his short comings solely as adopting too much of a Progressive bent really is somewhat delusional. The man is every bit the threat to democracy that he and most of your Party accuse Trump of being. While your critique of the Progressive agenda is spot on, you have missed the boat on leadership when you don't call out Biden and his ilk for their total lack of any leadership dimensions.
