I too hope they waste the next few years with factional infighting. The senate Republicans have already gone against his personal pick for majority leader and picked a boring neocon.

A standstill is probably the best you could hope for right now, but not exactly a positive outcome.

There's zero chance of a positive outcome. The best we can hope for is the least destructive outcome.

Ideally, they shit the bed badly while somehow not doing too much damage, and the Democrats take both houses in a landslide in 2026.

Delusional hopium I know, but hey, you never know.

Boring neocon and status quo is the absolute best case scenario at this point.
