Losing is the only thing that's going to kill Trumpism. But if that does happen and Dems end up getting long term supermajorities (I strongly doubt this will actually happen), they'll probably end up passing some stupid shit that a healthier opposition party would have stopped (because a common consequence of not having to seriously defend your ideas is to not figure out problems with them). The concern with one party being unopposed isn't that they'll make mistakes, it's that at some point they will realize they have no reason to not be as corrupt as they can possibly want because there's nothing that can stop them. --- Meow! <cite>Panthera posted [p:931483226] in Politics C...
