Oh, well that one's easy. Repeal the Reapportionment Act of 1929 and pass a new bill instituting the Wyoming Rule. The Republican Party as presently constituted will never win the House again - they'd have to moderate their positions so as to not exclusively serve the interests of the obscenely wealthy, white nationalists, and obscenely wealthy white nationalists.

<_<; the republican party is positioned to win the house in 2022. saying never is just asking to jinx it.

So I think if there's any delay it'll come Senate side. As is, McConnell is already threatening to filibuster the organizing resolution that would allow the Dems to take the committee chair positions (Republicans still chair the Senate Committees because when this Congress started it was 51-48 because the GA elections hadn't happened and Loeffler served until Warnock was sworn in.) Will die laughing if this causes Schumer to kill the filibuster because it is an absolutely absurd and unprecedented move on McConnell's part. Will especially die laughing if this is like the one thing that even gets Manchin on board because it's literally keeping him from chairing Natural Resources.

okay, that gets rid of the one thing i thought power sharing would've been good for.
if schumer was willing to split power with mitch like that, i figured there was some kind of deal made to streamline things for the first 100 days. if there isn't any then uh... why is that a thing? like a practical why, not lol dems why.
