Newt Gingrich had to give up Speaker of the House when the Dems flipped 5 seats under his watch IIRC. Will the same happen to Nancy, will she shown back to her regular seat and have to give up the SOH perks, doubtful.

They’re looking good for 210-215 seats when the counting finally stops.

There will be moderate Ds that know without a yuge anti trump turnout that they will lose in 2022. Nancy going to have a rough time. As for AOC et. al running their pie holes? Never interrupt your enemy when they are making a mistake.

Uh, no.  Mail-in voting and other election fraud enabling voting methods will be permanent from here on.  And they will be used in the mid-term elections.
Republicans will become the perpetual minority party in both houses of Congress.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

That's the way I see it happening.  Unless there are some major punishments dished out this time, that's it, show's over folks.

Don't forget about funding rioting and mob tactics.  

If that is the case, R's will have to get their hands dirty or never win again.


Sad.  I was sort of hoping some judges would see that coming.  Thinking of the Romans, how long before we have an Emperor/Dictator?

About January 20th is my guess.

Over/Under on Biden being found dead or Harris declaring him incompetent under the 25th amendment?

I'd give it 3-6 months just to make it look more believable. Of course it will be blamed on the unnecessary stress caused by Trump contesting the results of the election.

That or more. They'll need to build a case based on his non-teleprompter verbal communications. Once they have a big enough list of flubs and made up words, and televised confusion, they could act.

Biden doesn't do so bad when he is not running a busy schedule.  I don't think he will willingly resign.

Neither do I, and with a Pelosi run house, he would likely have some allies. Can't say the same if they make one of the socialists speaker. All signs point to them going full bore on their radical agenda, with ends justifying means.
