So... what's my take on what will happen two days from now at the polls here in the United States?
The Democrats are going to get pounded. They have basically become the party of three things: Hate Trump, wasteful spending, and promoting what can only be described as child pornography (especially the "transgender" madness). They believe that anger over Roe v. Wade getting overturned is going to be enough to energize whatever base they still have. That's not going to work. Except in places that are so outrageously blue that they are hopeless (helpless?).
So the Republicans are going to win and maybe become a hindrance for the next two years to Joe Biden, AKA the WORST president in history.
(How anyone could still support a dementia-ridden compulsive lying pedophile is beyond me.)
Yes, the Republicans are going to take the House and the Senate, I perceive. And that's going to be the beginning of the end of our problems, right?
WRONG!
Because the Republicans will likely do what they have always done whenever they get hold of the Hill. They capitulate. They turn over. They "play nice". They "go along to get along".
That has been how they have behaved with people like Mitch McConnell and Kevin McCarthy leading their party in the Senate and House, respectively. Republicans have "leadership" that is more interested in maintaining their hold on power, however much or little it may be.
The incoming Republican tsunami will be all for nothing if the new conservatives in Congress don't kick the tired old leadership to the curb and take NO prisoners. There should be NO compromising with the opposition. Democrats in the House and Senate haven't shown the GOP any mercy these past several years, why should mercy be shown them?
The Republicans have an opportunity to shut down Biden's insane agenda and they MUST take it. The American people are not about to sweep them into office just to maintain the status quo.
I'm saying this as someone who has become disgusted with partisan politics. Actually, with politics in general. I've done my part as a responsible citizen. I registered to vote the day after I turned 18. Have participated in most of the elections since then, including the primaries. I even ran for office once. It can't be said that I haven't upheld my end of the bargain as a citizen of this land.
I'm only calling it as I see it.
So in a nutshell: the Republicans are set to give Biden a good hard kick in the @$$. But it will be for naught if they don't shake up their own house first. Starting with rebelling against their corrupt longtime leadership.
Just my .02

Well, that aged well.
The first part wasn't too accurate, was it?
The second part figures into the first though, to some extent. The Republican leadership in Congress/Senate did not support social conservatives nearly enough in the races. Heck, McConnell actually went out of his way to sabotage a few candidates presumably because they were MAGA/threat to his power. Some people would rather rule ashes than actually LEAD a country.
