Whether it be 20, 24, 28 I have no predictions. But eventually another party will have control of the White House and Senate.
We've never had one party control for too long and that's a good thing.
Are you okay going forward with 51 senators approving judges? Or just 51 for everything?
Are you okay with money taken from congressional approved projects going to non congressional approved projects?
Are you okay with political speeches and campaign events held on federally funded properties especially if they are closed to the public?
Are you okay with norms not being law so they can be changed at the whim of whoever is in office? Do we want more laws or can we go back to tradition?
Are you okay with foreign governments supporting and spending money in our country to elect anyone from any party?
Is it okay for any politician from any party dog catcher to president to only want to serve those that voted for them?
Is it okay for any elected leader to remove anyone from government that doesn't agree with them?
Just wondering if this is all okay with everyone?
If it is what's next?
If it isn't what's next?
If you can leave Trump out of this and insert any politicians name you know like your mayor, governor, congress person etc that would be great.

We've reached the point where the Hutus and Tutsis were just before the Rwandan genocide began.
The Hutus had been broadcasting dehumanizing rhetoric for many months, portraying Tutsis as demonic cockroaches who deserved to be exterminated.
In Rwanda, We Know All About Dehumanizing Language
Now compare that to what we read every single day from Trump supporters here on DP.
It is a nonstop false narrative and it is direct from the Putin "Hey let's you and him fight" playbook.
Sorry! It is IMPOSSIBLE to leave Trump out of this because he IS THIS.
years from now and we could see communal riots, probably not the scale like India but something like what we saw in Portland last night, just absolute hate from both sides
its the institutions ripping us apart as Americans and a CRISIS like a war or a recession or A PANDEMIC was supposed to untie us, but it didn't??
I hope we haven't gone so far and that's it's truly a fringe minority that pushing the narrative and when they are gone the sentiment is gone.
I wanted to keep Trump out of it because I don't believe 1 solitary man can actually stoke this much division. It was there he's just playing on it.
I don't think anything can unite us anymore. I swear if there's a war one side will just blame the other adnausem until we are fighting for years upon years.
Not sure anybody else really noticed, but based on what I saw in Kenosha we were pretty close to extended armed conflict between citizens. IMO, the only reason it has calmed to some extent there is that they all scared the crap out of each other, both sides.
man I think your right, i really dont know what could unite us
Remorse.
