My Chemical Bromance @wallymcfly.bsky.social · 13hI’m not a doomer in the sense of believing the GOP will somehow win the midterms, but I do think less than a resounding defeat relative to expectations will have a lot of bad consequences. That’s the scenario I’m most concerned about tbh 000

A norm starting at least with the Watergate pardon. The opposite is true. You need to enforce the law and Constitution. 562270533
