The crossover voters that voted for dotard and were not bothered by his past...

I can't see them being bothered too much by what someone said in '72.
I wonder how many of them are bothered by a woman, black, Hispanic or socialist?
Not sure I want them registering as Democrats.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

... voters or his "base".

Those 3rd party candidates over performed 300% in 2016 ... in each state ...exactly 300% IIRC.

... was the over performance of 3rd party candidates in swing states that were Red Lead.

Carter is correct; without Russia there's no Trump
