Understanding your appropriate total lack of empathy for the blind mice, a problem is that We will also get what They voted for...and we learned that lesson long ago. Abusing a wonderful ad slogan from decades ago, "You got what you prayed for."

Indeed - but unfortunately, I think the only thing that's going to wake voters up is a dose of the hard medicine which he promised them, but which they didn't take seriously.

If he follows through on his promised economic plan, it will be rough sledding until the midterms, but once Dems are swept back into Congress they'll be able to start undoing some of the damage.

My schadenfreude is in overdrive. Even as I agree MAGAs will assign blame to Dems.

This is one area where we need to do the actual organizing, the actual accountability, the actual pushback, as Bill put it - election administration, which includes counting the votes, in GOP-controlled state legislatures. So that there will be free and fair Congressional elections in 2O26.
