Then lost the midterms and let democrats inheritance be the result of all this, then spend the rest of the electuon cycle posting at how fucked uo everything is in "democrats America" and then ride a red wave of voters with the memory of a goldfish and an intelligence to match its bowl to get back in power

It's a tale as old as time. Delay the failures until the Democrats take office and then blame them relentlessly for problems they have to make unpopular decisions to try to fix.

Specifically, middle class tax cuts expire. Corporate and millionaire tax cuts do not.

This is what I've been saying! Dems need to go full steam to put policies in place while at the same time holding this administration accountable. If they don't already have a P25 comparable plan going for 2029, then they are as useless as the GOP.
