They leave the Democrats a smoking crater where the Government used to be and guarantee there is no time to drag them through the courts.
It’s going to be all hands on deck to rebuild everything that the GOP broke..
This is because Democrats have to produce results and rescue Americans and Republicans get away scott free to wreck everything again in four years.
Rinse… repeat.
Looks like this time around, Democrats will be facing a Hiroshima sized crater. In a sane society, that would render the GOP radioactive for the neat 20 years and we could actually effect some real change.
I am not sure we live in a sane society.

Hope we move on. Going after trump after his first term sure didn't help us in 2024. We chased him in federal and state Silent Type May 2025 #33

Do you think the outcome would have been different if Democrats had just ignored him? kentuck May 2025 #34
