Not going to lie though, regardless of who gets the big prize, I am pretty happy about the results.
It is almost certainly the case Republicans will have a 52 seat majority in the Senate, and I was not expecting them to pick up seats in the House. This will be the first time since 1887 that a Dem would be sworn in without his party controlling congress. This means the entire Biden agenda is dead on arrival. No tax hikes or a public option or a Green New Deal or increase in regulations or destroying Charter Schools or crazy marxists in cabinet positions. Warren and Sanders can kiss their administration posts good bye. Then, regardless of who won, I was certain (and still am) the SCOTUS would bring down a reckoning on executive orders given the brand new make-up. No ruling by a pen and phone anymore.
To perform damage control from Thomas, Roberts will more then likely become a consistent conservative vote so he can decide who writes the opinion.
Republicans won big in state races in many district Dems just assumed would be theirs forever, meaning they will be in charge of the redistricting next year, cementing another 10 years.
Progressivism is dead! Need proof, exit polling shows an increase in support of Trump and Republicans under every demographic groups except White males after a relentless mantra of Republicans = racists for four years. Fortunately for us, the left does not seem to want to give up on that losing message. Conservatives are not only talking about policy, but now starting to discuss culture. And, the real prize, CA voted down bringing back affirmative action.
Last, and who knows if this will happen, but given the looses in the House, Pelosi may be voted out of her speakership. That would be the icing on the cake.
So, perhaps a fully ineffectual old grandpa President Biden may not be a bad thing.
