Given how important this election is to President-elect Bidenās ability to lead America through this crisis. Iād figure I make a thread just to discuss this very crucial election. An election I argue is just as important as the presidential election last November.
If Dems can pull off a miracle and win those two senate seats in Georgia then Biden will be infinitely more effective at getting things done like a more substantial covid relief bill that gives Americans way more than a measly $600 dollars for an entire year.
However, if the GOP wins this election and David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler(or even just one of them) retain their senate seats then the GOP retains their control on the senate. Which means the next four years of a Democrat lead White House is going to be severely hampered by a hostile opposition that will basically block any major legislation Biden tries to get through Congress. Itāll basically be a repeat of Obamaās last term in office where he was met with fierce partisan obstruction. Only this time the partisan obstruction will occur when the country is in the midst of deadly pandemic thatās already lead to millions of people losing their jobs , evictions, and of course is killing thousands of Americans everyday.
So the stakes couldnāt be higher. If Mitch McConnell remains senate majority leader for the next four years then many more people will suffer because this ugly, heartless, decrepit, bastard(along with those like him like Rand Paul) doesnāt seem to have a semblance of compassion for those who donāt have millions of dollars in their bank account. Mitch will see to it that Biden barley gets anything done. No matter how much Biden tries to coddle him, the GOP-controlled senate will be a stubborn partisan nightmare to Biden; seriously hamstringing his ability to get anything meaningful done. Therefore millions of Americans will suffer and die as a result. So itās very important the Dems take control of the senate. Fingers crossed.
