I am rather afraid they may just do it one more time

I'm increasingly of that view. My wife and I have always been independents, but she signed up as a Dem this year so she can vote in the Oregon primary (closed primaries) to help make sure Trump gets tossed (which is fairly safe in Oregon anyway). This morning she cheerfully tells me that she will vote for anyone BUT Biden. Her reasoning. Biden is no better than Trump! I say come again. She says he's a demented old white guy. I say: So?? She: So I'll vote for anyone but a demented old white guy! Me: Hello Trump 2nd term!

Not exact. But the point is, Hitler didn't win a majority. I will grant you that Hitler was apparently an ideologue. Trump isn't. Protest votes were a factor in both elections. And in both elections, there were true believers.
