But on the positive side- Democrats will be left with huge majorities in the House and Senate.

Maybe. Don't be so sure. Remember, Trump's position on immigration and border control was popular. The GOP did what one needs to do to advance your agenda - actually change public opinion. In the four years since 2020, public opinion shifted sharply away from being concerned with the rights and treatment of people who are here illegally.

Oh, Albaby…. Your strength is your commitment to facts and a mature temperament. That’s what all of us love about you.

But those very qualities get in your way when leaps of logic and a gallows sense of humor are called for- like this current time when so many of us are grappling with the hard fact that a solid majority of Americans voted for the convicted criminal who brags about grabbing women by the hoohah, while promising to protect women even if they don’t like it, and who promises to seek retribution on his political enemies, round up millions of illegals in a bloody program, while using the historically resonant language of fascism to describe his enemies upon whom he promises to exact retribution.

To whit…..

My hope is the Bad Hombres go first along with crooks - and go from there.

Clearly, if we go after the bad hombres and crooks, and then “go from there” we’d see a procession of Congresscritters (mostly Republicans, but some Democrats as well) being frogmarched out of the Capitol in handcuffs, and what would be left would be clear Democratic majorities in both Houses.

Ridiculous? Of course.
Unworkable? Undoubtedly (though more folks are willing to entertain the notion than in years past)

But when someone muses aloud about taking out the bad hombres and crooks, “and then go from there”, it should come as no surprise that someone else might have a different opinion concerning what “going from there” might look like.

Yours is not a failure of logic, but rather, a failure of twisted imagination, which I possess in spades.
