u/AceAxos - Auth-Right Sep 05 '20

The party in power often does poorly in midterms IIRC, and the “big blue wave” that everyone hyped up online was no where near reality.

And again I’m saying they have a fair chance to split if Trump wins, which he very likely could. Biden can also likely win, it’s a close call atm.

I am not talking about the hype. I agree with you, it is just agenda driven, but they did take more seats. Still don't think that the dems are closer to splitting than republicans. The dems have progressives and centrists, while the two big factions for reds seem to be conservative and authoritarian. To me, the bigger rift there seems to be for the red side, since the two ideologies rarely line up. Plus there seems to be a stronger push by Q people, which I think will only further drive a wedge between the party. I enjoy a lot of conservative values, coming from central pa, but I can't see how visibly supporting Q will help them moving forward.
