I don't disagree, but here's a take I haven't heard yet, and probably won't. I'll admit it's a little bit of a stretch but could be very accurate in this humble guys opinion.
A civil war could be avoided by 'ONE BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL'....'What' 'You're crazy' (i can hear some saying)
One big, beautiful bill would be the key to economic success that swings the midterm elections. Despite the historical trend of the White House party losing seats, if this bill quickly yields positive results, we would not only avoid losses but would likely gain seats in both the House and Senate. Should this occur, by the next presidential election, whether it's Vance, Don Jr., or any competent Republican, they could secure another landslide victory. Who knows, by then, the Democrats might have completely imploded, creating an opening for a new party to inch it's way forward slowly. (not crucial for the validity of all the rest) With these developments, America would be on a fast track to a golden age, continuing the trend until complacency sets in, paving the way for the newly formed or existing, libtard party to claim their first win and start the slide all over again.
Admittedly many if's but hey "If ifs and buts were candy and nuts, we'd all have a merry Christmas"
"So the moral of my story is, if you want to avoid a civil war, tell everyone you know to call those Republican Senators and demand ONE BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL. They're seem hell-bent on not letting that happen. I think it's because they don't feel the Senate's at risk, and two bills mean more time and more backroom deals that always seem to 'benefit' politicians, R or D. The closer the split between parties, the more 'motivated' the 'buyers' are, meaning the 'benefit' gets bigger. It might sound cynical, but let's be real, politicians are generally slimy, especially those who've stuck around through both parties' reigns and know how the game's played to 'benefit' themselves. That's why you'll see these bastards all drinking, smoking, and eating together at the popular Capitol hangouts. It's not because they're above the fray, rather, they're hanging out making plans and laughing at how they are so cleverly pulling one over. Anyone else think this?
