Trump administration 2024-2028

What an absolute blowout. Dems are cruising for 260 House seats. I saw nobody seriously suggesting remotely close to that number. 54-56 Senate seats. I’m blown away that Louisiana is not just in play but actually has a good chance of going Dem. That just wasn’t on the radar. Still too close to count in Alaska too.

Trump now (come January) gets nothing through Congress including Senate confirmations without a deal, and they have the power to choke off funding. The congressional investigations and subpoenas will be something else too. The administration’s in for a rough ride. Any bets on how long Hegseth lasts?
 
I’ve tried to stay out of this thread, but this seems to be a pretty decisive win for the Democrats.

Right now, I’m watching three things:
  1. The effect on Canada.
  2. Trump’s reaction.
  3. Who emerges as the Democratic Party’s leader and the main alternative to Trump.
 
Florida is now the odd one out, being the only red state left along the east coast.

And even then just barely. A DSA candidate very nearly won a senate seat, losing by just 3 points. The Governorship was also really close.
I kick myself for being hopeful but it was closer than usual. I'm really tired of living in an idiot state.
 
This article summarizes up nicely what we, and the Europeans, and others, are up against.

How much of this can we control? How much of this should we control? How much of this will we end up controlling over the next few years?

And I would point out - I don't necessarily agree with the use of the word 'Trump', there should be no single country, be it the US, the UK, the EU, who has this much control over our day to day lives - no one - otherwise we are really still just a colony struggling with the decision of becoming a full country.
