It goes without saying, but I’ll say it anyway. While the Dems losing big on Tuesday is necessary, should it come to pass, they will likely be worse than the Dem-Majority wiped out by the Tea-Party movement during Obama’s first mid-term disaster.
Speaker Pelosi and the Dems went wild, trying to cram stuff onto Obama’s desk before they lost control. And that was, as hard as this may be to believe, a kinder, gentler Democrat majority. Today’s version will try to hang all the remaining J6 Detainees (or as close as they can get) and push any and every piece of crap they can onto Biden’s desk before the first of the year.
The only thing stopping them will be Arizona’s Kristin Sinema and maybe West Virginia Senator Munchin’ Joe Manchin (both Democrats that can lean moderate). Absent their resistance; all hell will break loose between November 9th and January 1st.
Good for blogging, bad for America, and I’d give up some content for a moment’s peace, but tomorrow is just the beginning of a new brand of chaos and the unofficial “official” start of the 2024 presidential campaign.
Go ahead and scream; I’ll wait.
If you were sick of politics leading up to the midterm, that was Idling in the driveway. No matter what happens, the dust isn’t settling, and the accelerator is hitting the floor.
But the lame-duck congress is a huge threat to America. It’s everything they wanted in the next two years in about seven weeks. Unfortunately for us, the alternative is much worse. If Dems keep their majority, they’ll use that as an excuse to trash America for another two years.
The lame duck is better than the other sort.
Vote Republican. Every race. Leave no vote uncast. No seat uncontested. Write in Republicans if there isn’t one there.
