Democrats Hope to Gridlock Government In Mid-Term Election

Democrats and left leaning Republicans hope to pull President Trump's political teeth in the November Mid-term elections by handing him a platter of losing Republican House and Senate seats. If they can accomplish that, President Trump's MAGA agenda will finally die an unnatural death Democrats have sought since before his first term of office.

American voters tend to believe that if one party is underperforming or if hate Trump syndrome has overcome them, that switching to the sole viable alternative political party will fix the problems facing the nation or that would provide better pork to-themselves. That whipsaw assumption is simply incorrect.

Neither Democrats or Republicans have a rational policy to balance the Federal Budget, pay off the public debt, transition to sustainable green economics, develop an emergent economic plan that is realistic for workers displaced by A.I. inroads (about all grocery store jobs and truck driving could be done by A.I. for example). Both parties have a majority or a large number of 5th columnists seeking to continue the Ukraine war until Zelensky and the EU have recovered all of Ukraine, made it part of N.A.T.O. and made President Putin stand trial in Holland, neither party knows how to stop using plastic and creating billions of tons of microplastics annually, or to end the increase of atmospheric global CO2 concentration that is at 432 p.p.m. today- it does create a greenhouse effect and increased CO2 lowers the IQ of humans-especially that of politicians.

Neither party knows how to create a universal minimum basic income to simplify a wealth of social challenges from unemployment, incarceration, retirement, health and AI displacement unemployment to disability, transport and discrimination. Neither party knows how to coordinate that basic income with a transition to sustainable economic policies and restructuring of the nation's economy to conform to empirical environmental and demographic challenges successfully. Republicans at least know how to secure borders that are requisite for a polity to have realistic political self-determination of national policies.

Without a clear and realistic agenda and without voting on issues the tragicomedy of contemporary U.S. politics will continue regardless of who has the winning edge in November. Democrats could bring two years of political impotence to Washington D.C. regarding partisan priorities if they prevail. Republican victory would give President Trump's final two years an opportunity to develop whatever it is that he has been working on or planning with some political support in Congress.
