    Believe it or not, that’s the ideal outcome short of impeachment.

    The economy is fucked, and we have proof his government has been lying about the numbers. An obstructionist Trump lets Dems continue to rightly blame him for it, and Republicans with any luck take it on the chin again in 2028.

      Agree 100%. It’s better for the world if Trump and congress are at a stalemate than if Trump is allowed to continue to run rampant

      Of course, his voters will see it as dems being at fault for only passing bills that weren’t any good (Trump didn’t approve of them after all) and thus if dems get elected in 2026, they’ll be at fault for everything that happened in 2025-2026 in addition to already being at fault for everything negative that happened from 2017-2025.

      And they will reelect him in 2028.

        Yeah but those morons will support him no matter what happens, so why bother trying to placate them?

      You’re right, we should do absolutely nothing about all the idiotic bills this Congress has passed, including slashing ACA subsidies for everyone. Let’s just let the moron do what he wants.

        Somehow I don’t think a slight majority Congress is going to lead the revolution, chief.

        This is the system. What is supposed to happen is that Republicans put country and ethics over personal benefit and agree to vote in favor of impeachment from top to bottom, but that’s not happening so it’s a two year stalemate or a civil war.

        We’ll see what happens next.

        If it makes you feel better there’s a lot of things Congress can do in terms of investigation and daily business he can’t veto, it just means new bills won’t be passed.
