    And then the house goes straight to impeaching Biden which Dems in the senate then buckle to and vote to impeach in the name of bipartisanship

        Absolutely not. At best, that'll crack the Dems like an egg and set up another dud GOP President going into 2028. At worst, you get a full Two-Terms of George Bush III.

        I think you underestimate how many Olds are hopelessly addicted to MSNBC and consequently ride-or-die for Biden. Senate Dems turning on him would destroy their faith in the party for at least an election cycle.

          How many people became unreachably alienated after the rail thing? Are all those old people still around from 2020 and his microscopic margin then?

          I for one could really use that 600 dollars he owes me, but that's ancient history I guess.

            Dude had enormous margins in the general. Pretty much a reversal from 2016, particularly in the Midwest.

            The reporting was slow to come in, particularly across the Southwest, so Republicans decided the 8pm estimates were the final count because they were favorable.

            But weeks later, after the dust settled? It wasn't even close.

      Kamala assumes the presidency and chooses a dem Senator from a purple state. The special election goes to a republican, and Manchin and Sinema block all additional Democrat legislation in the Senate effectively rendering the majority useless.
