    My mood improved considerably after republican lawmakers started opposing his appointees, he clearly won’t be able to accomplish as much harm as he wants to with a splintered faction.

    Tbh my faith in humanity wasn’t high enough to ignore the aggregate polls to start with. Can’t be disappointed if you have no hopes.

    Sucks for climate goals, poor people, and minorities but I’m hoping to ditch the USA soon if I find an opportunity.

        Mitch McConnell already denied appointment during a Recess, that means the appointments require a senate majority or will face delays.

        Thats already something.
