I respectfully disagree. You (when I say you I mean Democrats/liberals not your personally) kept talking about him because you can't quit him in a certain way. Even though Biden is President MSNBC and CNN talk Trump all day long because it draws ratings. There have been articles written showing that when MSNBC talks about more about Trump their ratings go up.The focus has been on trump because he keeps himself in the news 24/7 with his big mouth, his crimes, his meddling and his incomprehensible screeds. After the last election I was relieved to think that we wouldn't have to pay attention to trump anymore because he'd shut his mouth and go away. How naive that was. The country didn't have to go through this but the trumpsuckers kept it going. You don't have to be an extreme partisan Dem to see how abnormal this is.
I remember after 2016 when Hillary was going on book tours, lectures, foreign visits etc., repubs constantly complained that she should just go away. Yet they suck it up and ask for more when it comes to trump taking over the narrative.
Even using this board as an example many days you would have thought we were still in the Trump presidency with the amount of threads started about him.
Of course what is more fun to talk about, Biden's industrial policy or Trump? Tariffs on China or Trump? Inflation or Trump? You get the idea.
I'm not suggesting he would or should never be talked about. But some folks can only talk him. It's like what's the point of winning the Presidency and having power and then talking about Trump all the time?
A big part of it is you thought he was going to be the easiest to beat again. So as much as you claim to dislike him you actually wanted him to get the nomination. Well now you got your wish and if polls are to be believed he could win.
Look at the Democrats response even on here to Biden's performance last night. There are some saying it was fine and they have his back 100%. Others are saying it wasn't good and you need a new candidate. In such a tribal world few like to disagree with fellow members of their tribe so it's much easier for you all to unite and discuss your anti-Trumpness than debating Biden. (Trust me, as a Republican who doesn't support Trump I know the feeling well - much easier to speak to fellow Republicans from an anti-Biden perspective than why I don't like and support Trump.)
