Dems win, nothing changes, we just get the occasional excuse. Presidential primary begins between Newsom, Harris, Butt, AOC, and maybe Warren, purely to spoil AOC. All candidates complain about netanyahu (who is somehow prime minister again) and AIPAC while receiving laundered AIPAC donations. Libs will say we are sabotaging the presidential election if we say they aren’t doing anything to stop president grump. Trump bombs Iran half-heartedly and Iran retaliates in a way that won’t rock the boat too much. This is the nothing-ever-happens outcome.

Have to wonder how the republican primary will shake out, since trump keeps saying he’s going to run again.

van hollen will walk those pseuds for biden 2.0, the bidening.

trump will bomb iran after exit polls close, but i think it's in iran interest to reach usa pain point instead of fumbling around until new congress ghouls arrive (in january?), so they have an apparent mandate to stop it.

Trump bombing Iran at midnight tonight would be fucking wild.

on one hand - iran floated deal is basically give our money back and we go back to normal (despite being bombed and decapitated), on the other - why would porkies agree to it, if they think they can get more?

That's such a good deal Trump will think Iran must be desperate.
