objectively
1. Every President from a new party reverses the outgoing President's executive order. Plus repealing or reinstating the Hyde amendment based on party affiliation.
2. Georgia's Senate seats are not flipping blue so the senate will be 52-48 R
3. The democrats at best will have a 222-213 majority in the house. They are going to lose the house in 2022.
This election was a referendum on Trump's personality and the voting public dislike for the woke politics of the far left. If both parties were smart, the Republicans will find a more appealing candidate in 2024 that won't turn off suburban white women and the Democrat Party will treat woke politicians as the outliers in the party and focus on working class issues (like getting a healthcare system that reduces the cost of healthcare for the middle class worker). Whichever party implements their fix with the most enthusiasm will win in 2024.
I think the Democrats are beginning to catch on and we will have to wait and see on the Republicans.
Quote:As one Democratic strategist noted, “2018 was a wave year because our people showed up and theirs didn’t. 2020 was like a reversion to the mean because both sides showed up and right now we’re feeling the whiplash because no public or private data saw it coming.”
Nothing is clearer in the outcome than how closely the presidential vote matched the vote in House races. The latest count in the presidential race shows Biden with 51 percent of the popular vote. Cook’s tracker shows Democratic House candidates with 50.4 percent of the vote.
