They need to pick a side either your with saving America or with a Dictator whose goal is to destroy Democracy and America like everything else he's managed to Bankrupt and ruin.

      @Jeff Putnam not that your intentional ignorance deserves a response but by nature and profession.. I AM a teacher so here goes: Crime: the highest crime rates in this nation, out of the top 10 states... takes place in RED states. The two blue states that are in that top 10 list are because of major cities that have prominent gang presence. Border (not boarder... that's someone who lives in your home) "invasion"... border cities are actually safer than many other cities in the border states. Lockdowns have been used for MILLENNIA (that's thousands of years) to save vast majorities of citizens in densely populated communities from highly contagious diseases that are DEADLY (over 1 million americans died because of inaction of the magat in chief who spread lies... think of him as an orange Nero... though I'm sure the inference will be lost on you). And inflation.... oh you sad, pathetic, ignoramus... inflation is a GLOBAL problem that has more to do with supply chain problems that YOUR magat in chief created with tariffs against imports.
      Please... get educated before you inundate the rest of the populous with your hackneyed, faux noise talking points.
      Remember it is better to keep your mouth shut and have people think you a fool, than to speak and prove them right.

      Technically the Democrats already had it with the VP swing vote.
      The absolute 51-49 majority gives them more breathing room against the Sinema's and Manchin's in the party though - but sadly losing the House or Reps means that they can't make much use of that outside of Senate only affairs like SCOTUS or Federal justice confirmations.
