Frankly I was taken a bit aback by him saying something about 'those who engage in war, Jesus doesn't hear their prayers' or something. There's something called the 'just war' doctrine.'

This Just War Doctrine talking point is so freaking stupid. To the extent one gives credit to that ā€œdoctrine,ā€ it does not say God EVER supports war. And it also almost always forbids offensive wars such as the one weā€™re engaged in right now.

IF (big if ) we can take back the House and the Senate, I think we can survive until the end of his term.

He does what he wants without Congressā€™ approval. He doesnā€™t even need senate confirmation because he does an end run around that. What limits do you think a hostile Congress would put on him? Itā€™s not like there would be a veto proof majority in both houses.
 
If Trump keeps deteriorating at this pace, there might be enough Dem Senators plus scared Republicans to convict him in the Senate. By August he will be drooling.

I'm somewhat amazed that these GQPers want to continue to attack the Pope after all of the blow black from the Catholic community... and note I said somewhat amazed;)

I would hope the Senate majority would block all judge nominations and confirmations including SCOTUS nominations. Are you suggesting that he could do an end around on that ?

I would hope the House speaker would not allow bullshit crazy harmful bills from even coming to the floor for a vote. Are you suggesting Trump could do an end around that ?

On point 1, if the Democrats somehow get 51 senators, then that could spell an end to most Trump judges, especially Sup Ct justices, but not sure how that makes 2.75 years of Trump go by any faster. Trump does Trump stuff regardless of the courts, and he will have a safe majority on the Supreme Court for the remainder of his term (absent some kind of assassination plot). This is more of an issue for after Trump leaves and his lasting legacy. Doesn't really impact what Trump does for next 2.75 years.

On point 2, bills are largely all messaging bills at this point. Nothing gets through Congress other than CRs to keep the government funded for a few months. That is unlikely to change even with Democratic control of the senate due to filibuster (and Democrats will keep the filibuster until they also have control of the Whitehouse).

Hope so. Also, on Biden's worst day, he never put the USA in as much danger as Trump does on a weekly basis.
