What comes next after the Trump win?

So we wait on:
  • Who has control of the House
    • Impressive in a high tide, that the House at best swings a few seats.
  • Does the Senate change (remove) the filibuster
    • I'm 50/50 this happens. Getting a supermajority is near impossible.
  • Does Trump do all that crazy shit like put RFK Jr in charge of HHS.
The House is key to the limits (or lack there) of power, and then the Filibuster.

Doesn't even matter. He's going to replace people with loyalists and it doesn't matter what the House does, they won't have any ability to actually do anything.

If Trump repeats the mistakes of his first term, his victory will be pissed away. But this time around he has RFK jr, Musk, and Tulsi Gabbord so I remain very hopeful. I have read that Bannon is out of jail now too.

The House couldn't stop the Exec. actions, which is to be seen. But it would impact Congressional legislation limits.
 
House appears to be heading to be remaining in GOP control. CA has a considerable number of ballots to go through, but other places, the GOP is flipping seats. They knew where to hit the Democrats. How can one of the dumbest fuckers to ever be President, have such an incredibly adept machine behind him. Or are they just getting lucky with male angst? Hitting too many bulleyes to consider it luck. Which then makes me wonder, how did the Dems pull off 2022?

With the tri-fecta and fewer adults left in the GOP, they are a filibuster eraser away from passing whatever the fuck they want.

I wasn’t aware that Trump makes mistakes. At least not according to himself.

Because ex-cons make the best political appointees? What role would you like Bannon to take in the government?

With his Goldman Sachs background, he could easily create and head the Department of Presidential Marketing. Because God knows we've only seen the start of Trump merch.
I predict a line of Trump Incontinence Accessories by his third year in. They're gonna make incontinence sexy. The Don Packer (black fashion rubber underpants); the MAGAbag (catheter and collection pouch); The Golf Whizzer (fashionable rubber golf bag with built-in urinal); I Can't Believe It's Not Depends (3'x3' absorbent pads with Trump's mug shot screen-printed on each one.) Gonna be a big money maker.

Sane, reasonable informed people are justifiably apprehensive for the precise reason you're hopeful.
 
Say goodbye to the ACA, without a replacement.

It'll be back to the good ol' days of paying exorbitant premiums just to get dropped when you need the insurance most.

Bannon could look after the prisons. He does have intimate experience.

Yabut they all do. He’s probably holding out for Virginity Inspector General.

Danbury isn't a prison. It's a shitty resort you are not allowed to leave. It's far from what real prisons in the US are like.

For those of us with health issues it won't be available at all.

Yup.

If you're counting on Medicare when you hit 65... Well, let's just hope you live to 70 to get it.
