Silver Lining for Pubs

Looks like Biden wins 270-267 unless my math is wrong, but either way THERE IS NO MANDATE TO GOOSESTEP THE USA INTO SOCIALISM. That's a plus and a victory within itself, for the time being.
Dems hold the House, but not near the extent they believed and wanted - no mandate for them there.
Pubs hold the Senate. Good for supreme court security and balance-of-power in nominations.
Having the cognitively distressed Biden and laughing VP Harris for four years will be enough to guarantee a red win in 2024. If Trump had won, not only would we have to listen to anti-Trump MSM propaganda for four years, but it would surely make it near impossible in 2024 for Republicans.
No way the Democrats will be able to nominate anyone except Special K for POTUS in 2024. She will lose.
A downside is a stalemate means there will be little agreement on legislation except each side can agree on spending more money, which we don't need to do.

were interested in normalizing relations with Israel. I would absolutely love it if that were true (who knows?) and he was able to finalize those agreements on his way out the door. Sure, sure...for world peace and all...but also to tack to three or four more peace prize nominations as he walks out the door (if he does in fact lose).

I disagree. Without Trump most of the GOP senate will turn back into spineless slugs. I see them going along with the Dems, so the media will like them.

I think we have all learned a lot these past few years. I hope (think) the Senate republicans will find a spine.
Can start looking at mid-terms - are Senators up for re-election then? I think so...

The Senate Repugs were obstructionists long before Trump. They have spines. They do NOT have any morals.

McConnell can hold hearings on his replacement until the next POTUS is elected.

Those hearings will have to get in line behind all the others. So you are right, could take a few years and bleed into the next administration. haha.

NC,
You seem to be missing 2 votes - perhaps you skipped over Alaska ??
