There are a few regional special elections in idiot MAGA states across the country, and the Republipigs haven't put a lot of effort into them, because they assume that no one will really challenge their candidates, given the evil pervert MAGA nature of those scumbag Trumper states.
But problems are arising.
People (I use the term loosely, of course, since I refer to MAGA) are objecting to the coming Trump recession, the way he's fucked over the stock market, the coming drastic Trumpflation, and even whether he should become Putin's love-slave after all. Those objections are starting informally and locally, as they always do, and are showing in venues like town hall meetings, letters to the editor, local policy statements, and so forth. But pretty soon, they'll be louder and more prevalent. This happened in 2018, and then again in 2020. There was an anti-Trump backlash, and a blue wave.
So these pro forma, shoo-in candidates are facing unexpected scrutiny, challenges, and questions. The Republipig party is being forced to divert funds to ensure the election of their auto-stooges. Probably, they'll win regardless--but it's like a football coach being forced to put his starters back in because the second-stringers have blown a five-touchdown lead.
Litmus test, primarily, rather than any real impact. But people are already questioning things like: do we really want to pay to round up and deport eleven million people? Do we want to close the national parks? Is obliterating the CDC, the DOE, etc. really such a wonderful idea?
Trump doesn't have long to fulfill his grandiose promises, and scurrying off to Mar El Asshole to masturbate with his golf clubs isn't cutting it.
Kevin once again proves how short sighted Liberals are. Oh my.
