(71,560 posts)36. With one branch no nominee will achieve much...and Sanders could lose the House as well
as lose the White House (certain of that). However, Trump would not get any judges (neither would we of course), we would get rid of Barr and control Justice, no more EO's from Trump, Investigations in the house and at Justice of Trump would be possible...I would bet that Bloomberg would rescind all of Dump's EO's including the hidious Climate ones, on day one, Dreamers would not be deported, kids would not be caged and Bloomberg could use EO's for student debt relief, guns, healthcare, climate etc...there is an upside to any candidate defeating Trump. Defeating Trump is my main concern.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
