I almost got my wish this past election.

The Democrats held the Senate and they almost held on to power in the House. If only we could have held the House. The Democrats control the White house.

I have always believed the only way to get the Republican Party to moderate is for the American people to keep the Republicans completely out of power for multiple election cycles. Things are trending towards the Democrats gaining complete control once again in 2024. The majority of the American people are sick of the extremism and the Republicans are still doubling down on the extremism. The Republicans do not know how to control the extremists in their party.

Some may say it is impossible to keep the Republicans completely out of power for multiple election cycles. But it has been done before, it can happen again.
