    Looks like this time Jo did fuck it up for the Republicans. They could've held the presidency and the senate, since the Biden campaign failed to win Senate races, but instead the 16 EC votes go to the democrats and cement a weak Biden presidency with a Republican Senate.

        You will see the Democratic party on federal level move to the right to compromise with the Senate. They will shoulder the blame when the budget doesn't pass the Senate. If you would play with power you would do a lot of executive orders, but that is highly unlikely.

        So for leftists you can expect more repression than you would've expected with a Democratic senate (to be honest, for already targeted people and marginalized ones this won't change much). Feel free to mark the thread and proof me wrong in 4 years.
