OP
the Senate is not completely lost, if Peters holds on, we need two more seats to get to 50

Biden can do a lot as President. He can undo most of Trumps damage.

I dozed off around 11:30 AZ time feeling apocalyptically sick to my stomach. But now I'm checking DU and things do look better, but not for the Senate. I can't believe Ernst pulled it out.

But Biden can reverse the damage done by Trump. That will be Joes job; cleaning up after Trumps mess.
