Nah. Republicans own the next two years.
Four years most likely. While the party in the oval office tends to lose on midterms, Republicans will most likely dial up the voter suppression to new levels.
Yeah, but I'm willing to hope that 2026 will end up like 2018, where Republicans lost their control of the House.
I guess that's it then. There's no way to stop a party of incompetents. Throw our hands in the air and surrender!
Acknowledging reality is not the same thing as giving up,. In fact acknowledging that voter suppression is going to ramp up and affect the midterms should be a reason to act now.
Ignoring that likelihood increases the chances of being purged off voter rolls without noticing.
