This wasn't a blue wave... it was an incremental shift ever so slightly with the major change at the top, yes, is more than just a symbolic change but the impact has to be felt with the voters or we will find ourselves with an even worse yet more presentable version of right wing fascism in 2024 coming out of the GOP.

If it's a 50-50 tie, then we win because the VP breaks the tie. So long as we enact by either reconciliation or 51 majority, we're good to go.
Also can’t overlook the moderate GOP senators that can refocus on their state constituents and not just overall party politics.

And this should officially end the Democratic strategy of trying to turn Republican voters. There were **** Senators that ran ahead of Trump despite clinging to his nuts, enabling his criminal behavior and voting to AQUIT him of an obvious **** crime! The only lesson the Republican Party will learn from this is that next time they need to select a racist, facist, authoritarian prick who isn’t on twitter as much. Democrats need to focus on a turnout game and activating new voters. **** this turning Republicans bull.
Chuck **** Schumer needs to step down as minority leader. I’m not a fan of needlessly **** on Democrats, but he dropped the **** ball big time. He had so many shots at thing and he completely **** the bed. Biden might win but this was not a good result for Democrats. It took the combined force of historic voter turnout, the Republicans publicly speaking out against their own party, tons of money from Bloomberg to narrowly beat Trump. Democrats in the house absolutely under performed. DNC, DCCC, DNSC all need to be fired and cleaned out because they have no **** clue what they’re doing. I remember so many grassroots organizations saying that the DNC needs to invest in communities and put boots on the ground instead instead of just dropping in 2 months before elections. They need to heavily invest in African American and Latino outreach and figure out a strategy to actually reach rural voters or else forever lose the Senate.

If Biden wins Georgia I'll suck your **** dick on national teevee.
Lnfao not happening.
I haven't been payin' airy attention at all i knew what was gonna happen and posted it early this mornin' and have been gamblin' ever since without a care in the world. How's it looking Polk is it time to send in the banjo players and have us a hoedown? Some of the folk in here are crazier than a run over dawg. Tell me it's all over but the howlin' like a banshee, is it?
You know what I think about Nate's them thar polls? If wishes were horses then beggars would ride.
I'd imagine some faces tomorra will be red as a pickled beet and they'll feel as hot as a fox in a forest fire. Don'tcha think?
Anyaways...let me play you a little tune and have some fun! How about some duelin' banjos!

Get over it. The majority of those mail in ballots are coming from rural counties who can't support polling sites. This thing is ooooovaaaaa.they are going to try and contest PA. I don't think it will matter. Trump will sweep Georgia, North Carolina, Michigan, Nevada and Wisconsin to win. That is the path right now. Still looking very good for us.

The graham and collins losses are absolutely inexcusable, that plus Pelosi losing congress seats tells me they both need to step down and let some new blood in the leadership roles. If Biden wins in spite of all this, it tells me that his strategy worked for him and only him. Im hoping that Biden breaks the record for executive orders. Only way **** will get down on his watch.

Well, a fully progressive agenda is unlikely, but it doesn't mean a Biden administration would be completely ineffectual either.

Good point!
With Trump out of the way, Senators would be able to vote their conscience instead of being fearful of a Trump backlash.

Imagine an unfiltered Trump getting in yo ass. I dont believe for a second that citizen trump will be quiet or that he wont have an influence on what his party does.
