Bill Kristol has a theory on how Dems can win in 2022 and it has something to do with the NFL playoffs. We wish we were joking, but nope:
NFL playoffs: #1 seeds lose on field goals as time expires, set up by interception and blocked punt.
Republicans, favored in 2022, can be beaten by alert play capitalizing on their mistakes. Never Trumpers can intercept passes and block punts. Can Democrats kick the field goals?

He’s been this way for a while lol:
It’s been one for a while now.

And if the Dems really want to win, maybe they need a QB who can throw TDs?
The fact that you think of the Democrats as only the field goal kickers on their own team explains a lot. https://t.co/yjj56ppk75

He has a very high opinion of the Never Trumpers on his fictional team:
the never trumpers are practice squad special teams players who are absolutely positive they're actually superstar-caliber players https://t.co/GdhotyuBpO

Others aren’t so sure of his plan:
Have you met Democrats? We can barely get the pads on right.

Yep. This is how it *would* go:
No, they'll whine about who does the kicking and some will wonder loudly if it's even fair to kick a ball—which will lead to a delay of game penalty. And then the kick will be blocked.
