In reply to the discussion: What do you expect to change if Democrats win back the Congress and the White House in 2028? [View all]JI7
(93,128 posts)41. It takes time to change things. But stopping the corruption by the President
and others at the top will be the first difference.
It will take time to clean out the various institutions but at least they will have started instead of continuing it.

A huge part of the difference is just stopping what is happening. Getting laws to change things are more difficult but that will be what they work for.

I expect very little to change. ("Expect" as in "anticipate," not as in "would like to see.")
