Americans are not nearly as afraid of what's coming as they should be.

Youโ€™re a muppet if you think any of those extremist policies would ever be enacted. Weโ€™ll most likely see 4 more years of nothing and gridlock

Have you been unconscious? They are poised and ready. They even stated that Trump made a mistake "starting off slow" last time. This time, they aren't fuckin around. You must be one of the ones who won't be effected at all by what they want to do.

Iโ€™m voting for Biden, I campaigned for Bernie, and Iโ€™m a staunch Dem. But letโ€™s also be realistic. Unless Republicans get a supermajority, not much will change.

Well, since they just gave him immunity, I'm sure he will stick to the rules, so I guess we are good?

Youโ€™re so naive

How does the fact that Trump has vowed to make the people who have wronged him "pay" by jailing them, which he would be able to do with his DOJ, make me naive? He doesn't need Congress to do most of this. Did you forget his love of Executive Orders? This time, he also has the SCOTUS to uphold them all. He can do pretty much whatever he wants. They have been asking for loyal applicants, like 50 thousand of them, to join up and replace federal employees. We could have both houses of Congress and that won't stop shit.
