Up and down the ballot, across the country, and according to every major news outlet, Democratic candidates won big on Tuesday night. True to form, immediately before and after this sweeping victory—which was largely expected, though its scale and scope were not—centrist Democratic consultants and the corporate press were out in force, warning voters to curb their enthusiasm and stay in the moderate lane.
Even if they end up with 56 votes getting anything through the Senate that isn’t budget reconciliation will be harrowing.
Our best hope is that someone convinces Trump to backstab the GOP.
El-Sayed offered this idea; Trump votes for Medicare For All and we name it the ‘Donald Trump Is Wonderful and We All Love Him Bill.’
