  I anticipate so many speeches without any meaningful actions, followed by a return in 2028 to previous red/blue splits.

    Jeffires is already talking about how voters aren’t interested in “revenge”.

    Think we will get the Epstein files? My guess is no.

      I think we’ll see more of it read into congressional hearings as a few people scratch the itch of wanting to be president in 28.

    Because people once in a while get together enough to make this happen, then ignore politics for two years. We have a representative government, but we can't assume they are doing their job well without checking on them from time to time and reminding them why they're there.

    And part of it isn't their fault - the House has the same problem many classrooms have, too many kids per teacher to do an effective job with each one of them. So the loudest or the neediest get the attention, and the rest fend for themselves. We've got to find a way to reduce how many people each representative actually looks over. This also would more accurately split power in districts.

  It’s a bit early to make that prediction.

        I’ll let you have it. Talking with Americans is like trying to win an argument with someone who is terminally ill. Even if they win, you win.

      Socialism isn’t going to be implemented in a single election. It’s a goal that will take years to achieve.

      But progressives destroying republicans is the first step towards it.

        I mean, it goes left and right historically yes. The USA is now at “2020” level. So…… party?

      Being hopeless is a hell of a lot sadder than being hopeful.

        Being outside of the USA looking in and seeing a bunch of fake hope is the most sad times infinity. Sorey kid.

      You, and people like you, are the sad ones. What went wrong in your life to make you turn out like this?
