We need to understand this going into 2020.
It didn't end when Trump gave up. He never really gave up. It ended when Mitch gave up.
Tax cuts passed. Judges passed. But Trump's real passion projects have languished. His "merit-based immigration" system is never going to happen. His wall is less than what Obama built.
The Senate. Is. All. That. Matters.
Biden beats Trump. We keep the House and pick up 2 Senate seats. Mitch is still there.
Biden launches health care, climate, and infrastructure initiatives.
Mitch: "LOL no."
Justice Beer Bong: "LOL no, those are permanent now."
2022: GOP runs on how Biden has accomplished nothing. Net zero change in Senate seats.
2024: President Tom Cotton. Mitch gets two more Supreme Court picks.
All of this is very possible.
Because the president is irrelevant in this scenario. The president is still Mitch.
I'm not kidding.
Get to work.
