We will see if Trump lost any cult members in the mid terms in 2026. The cult, if hit hard
enough by Trump's bizarre economic policies, may come back to earth and realize they
need to get some restraints on him, and the only way they can do that is by swinging
the House to the D's. I am cautiously, kind of sort of, optimistic that the pendulum
will swing in 2026.

It may be enough if at least some of the MAGA cult are discouraged enough not to go to the polls.

But...I do not think it is hyperbolic to worry that Trump and his deeply weaponized executive branch, supported by a deeply corrupt GOP Congress might make it impossible for Dems to win a majority in either house.

And we can no longer count on the SCOTUS to protect our democracy.
