Having a Republican House that has a slim majority would actually help the Democrats for 2024….their slim majority won’t be able to do anything and be very chaotic, and they won’t be able to blame Democrats for having full control of government…..holding the Senate is what we needed to do for Federal Judges

If Republicans have control 219-216 or 218-217, they will be neutered, but still pull some things they make America hate them.

And Biden is a master, he will still cut some great deals with them. And the judges are going to make a difference. And maybe Clarence Thomas drops dead.

A Chaotic 219–216 Republican house is better for 2024 than a 219-216 Democratic House that can’t pass legislation because of a 51-49 Democratic Senate that filibusters it…..
