    But the R’s cannot win. On this we can all agree.

    I’m already planning on their win. The historical trends point that way. Of course they won’t call themselves fascist. Their political PR people will come up with a better name, but they’re going to win, whether it’s Desantis or Trump.

    And people are going to blame us DemSocs for it and not themselves.

    The time to stop this was when Obama had a supermajority, and all he did with it was make health care even more expensive.

      Totally agree about Obama’s well intentioned but ultimately disastrous attempt to reach across the aisle. He had two miraculous years to change it all, and blew it on trying to reconcile two utterly incompatible views of what America should be. Noble, but in the end foolish.

      If you are right, it won’t really matter who takes the blame. Part of me thinks you are right, but the better part of me is still fighting.
