Mitch is good for 6 more years. Anything short opens a can of worms. Are the GOP senators big enough to make Cruz the majority leader? U tell me.

Mitch, answer this. who voted for Biden?
(btw I don’t believe Biden would have got +7 “white men” who would be choosing higher taxes, ending fossil fuels, & support for China! give me a break):

22 Nov: BBC: US election 2020: Why Trump gained support among minorities
By Ashitha Nagesh
The Republican president gained six percentage points among black men, and five percentage points among Hispanic women...

18 Nov: Faith & Freedom Coalition: Chairman Ralph Reed: Did evangelicals swing to Biden? Not hardly.
Chairman Ralph Reed wrote the following op-ed for the Christian Post on evangelical voter turnout in 2020.
But whatever else will be remembered about 2020, one fact is clear: evangelical Christians voted in the largest numbers in modern American political history, and they gave President Donald Trump more votes than any presidential candidate had ever received. According to network exit polls, self-identified evangelicals comprised a record 28 percent of the electorate, or a total of 44.8 million voters, 9.2 million more than voted in 2016. If one adds frequently Mass-attending Roman Catholics (who comprise another 9 percent of the electorate, devout Christians total 37 percent of the entire vote – larger than the union vote, African-American vote, and the Hispanic vote combined...

According to a post-election survey conducted by Public Opinion Strategies, Trump won 81 percent of the evangelical vote to Joe Biden’s 14 percent. Biden won a smaller share of the evangelical vote than Hillary Clinton did (16 percent), and the smallest percentage ever recorded for a major-party presidential nominee. (A separate exit poll conducted by the Associated Press and the University of Chicago also showed Trump winning 81 percent of the evangelical vote.)…
Meanwhile, Democrats are on track to lose as many as 14 House seats, a stinging rebuke to Nancy Pelosi and The Squad, the far-left Democrats who have pushed the Green New Deal, socialized health care and defunding the police. Most of the new Republican members of Congress are women, minorities, and veterans...

What could happen is that Kamala will decide to take up the full powers of the president of the senate, which have laid dormant for much of our history. Kamala would essentially take over the traditional majority leader’s powers, and Mitch would become more or less relevant. Pence could also make an end run around Mitch and his threats to the GOP senators, if his efforts to throw out the fraudulent electoral votes are successful and he remains VP. There are ways of dealing with McConnell.
