51. I have the same fear.

November is absolutely critical. If the dems don't win back control of at least one chamber, this country will be unrecognizable by 2020. He still has 2.5 years to go in this term!

But even winning one chamber isn't a guarantee we'll survive this, only that we may be able to thwart the worst of the damage. But only if the dems stay united & hold strong, not something I have a lot of confidence in. We'll let the blue dogs off the hook for voting with the GOP.

I know. It's like listening to the grownups lose it. nolabear Jul 2018 #1
