Bill Kristol asks to consider three alternate Wednesday, November 4th headlines:
- “Trump loses presidency as Midwest flips; GOP holds Senate.”
- “Trump defeated by big margin; election called early as Florida and North Carolina go to Biden; Democrats win Senate.”
- “Biden wins by double digits in popular vote; rout extends to victory in Texas; Democrats control Senate easily.”
“The initial reactions to these would be very different. But so, probably, would be the lasting effects. One would be a defeat for Trump, the second a rejection not just of Trump but perhaps of Trumpism. The third would open up the possibility for a re-making of the GOP and of conservatism itself.”
