General Discussion

House before next year's elections, or maybe before the 2028 elections if the Republicans can gerrymander and disenfranchise their way to keeping control next year?

It seems wildly unlikely. But so did Nixon tanking the Paris Peace Talks to win the election, Reagan telling the Iranians to keep the US hostages until he was inaugurated, Bush the First pardoning the Iran contra felons on Christmas, the supremacist court halting a presidential election to ensure that the Republican candidate won, the Senate majority leader refusing to give "advice and consent" to a supreme court nominee because the president was from a different party, a president fomenting a coup then being re-elected and then pardoning the rioters.

At this point about the only thing that I'm willing to rule out in US politics is space aliens landing on whatever is left of the Whitehouse lawn and installing a Sasquatch as our leader. Which is a shame, because it would be a distinct improvement.
