Well, look at it like this. The Trump Administration is going to redefine what it means to be a lame duck. Whatever arrows he still has burning a hole in his foreign policy quiver aside, there will still be endless investigations, nonstop obstruction, zero judicial appointments. The Democrats are almost certainly going to impeach him again. The reason doesn't even matter, we're past pretending that it does. What if they find four or five Senators who just really fucking hate the guy and are willing to play ball? Vance gets to inherit a big shit sandwich. An incumbent Vance or not, I like the Dem's odds for the White House in 2028. I mean, Texas just elected a Democratic Governor for the first time since, what? 1996? Puerto Rico is two more Senate seats. DC is two more on top of that. Why not just say fuck it and throw in the AVIs, too? With two ancient conservative justices and zero nominations to SCOTUS for the foreseeable future, the Dems can probably wait it out, but they'll likely pack the court anyway. Then they'll pack the rest of the federal bench for good measure. They've told me they will and I believe them. You can be assured that anyone they can get any excuse to prosecute they will. That's not just spite, it's to put the professional class on notice. Nobody in Washington will be willing to work for a MAGA-esque guy again, because they have a $6000 mortgage in Loudoun County and two kids to put through college. They're not going to risk getting dragged through ruinous legal hell or even go to prison. They're going to crucify Elon Musk and kill that Golden Goose. It's not even the money or X or the weird optics of having a smart and wildly successful white immigrant bagging on them all the time. It's that he Just Does Things they can't. The last of the rightwing legal societies will get dismantled, conservative lawyers will get disbarred (already happening), the border is going to be re-opened, just a little slower and neater for optics, and 10-30 million illegal immigrants who know which party butters their bread will get amnesty and fast tracked to citizenship. A new census will get put out and they'll redistrict. With all three branches of the government under their control they are going to pass legislation and budgets you wouldn't believe. Money to their whole team. A fire hose to NGOs. If any part of this is tenuous in the Congress, they'll just find a judge to say they "have to" because one of their deep stable of leftist lawyers sued and then they'll say "aw, shucks, thems the rules". They're going to codify all the stuff through the courts that people don't actually want, just like they did with gay marriage. "You'll get used to it" they'll figure. And "we" will. Again. We're going to get so many refugees, so many new DEI programs, so many new taxes, it'll leave people breathless. But it won't matter if people don't like it, because we'll have so many new people who are stoked about it. The middle class white people who are left after AI disrupts the whole white collar workforce are going to have a ring jammed through their nose and dragged out to the yard like the tax cows they are, left loudly mooing about why the leopards are eating their faces. And you better believe they're coming for the guns, too. They'll get new rulings from their new courts and issue broad mandates on all sorts of firearms. Nobody's going door to door, there will be no shootout at the OK Corral. They'll just tell you the guns in your house are a felony now and offer everyone a grace period to turn them in. And they mostly will, sooner or later. Because normal law abiding citizens don't want to go to prison or become convicted felons and normal law abiding citizens are the target. And that's just the low hanging fruit. You're going to get almost everything you want, right up until it all falls apart because people like you don't understand why anything is the way it is and so you have no ability to effectively change or maintain it. But, by that point, it will be too late. Then it's either the eternal favela or some guy doing his best Reinhard Heydrich impression telling his boys to harden their hearts and do their duty. You won't like either. You're going to lose, the only question is if we're going to lose with you. https://t.co/h7Q3bhBjJW
