    That’s essentially what happened with the Whigs. The leadership decided that they weren’t going to decide one way or another on a strong stance for/against slavery, ignoring the pleading of their own constituents. So the anti slavery ex-Whigs made Lincoln’s Republican Party and the Whigs never recovered.

    So not only is biden likely handing the election to trump, the moral outcry that is being ignored might kill the Democratic Party for good.
