The 2020 presidential election
Online Cigarettes
Store USA is a cliffhanger, and we may not know
the final results for days. But Democratic nominee Joe
Biden has pulled ahead in the critical states of Michigan
and Wisconsin with plenty of blue-leaning mail ballots to
count. Because he won Arizona as well as Nebraska's
second congressional district and leads narrowly in
Nevada, President Trump has probably been defeated. The
real question is whether Biden adds Pennsylvania and
Georgia to the tally or whether we are looking at the
closest outcome in the Electoral College since 2000. Even
if Trump were to wave a magic wand to stop ballot
counting everywhere, at the moment he would still lose.
Biden will win more votes than any presidential candidate
in history and could still end up winning nationally by 6
points or more.
In a functioning country with responsive
Newport
Pleasure institutions, it would be time for
Democrats to pop the champagne. But the United States'
anachronistic institutions grant a minority of the
population outsized power, and even though Democrats held
onto the House of Representatives, Republicans have a
very good chance of hanging on to a bare majority in the
Senate. This means any Biden agenda other than ruling
through executive orders is basically out the window.
Trump's fervent attempts to spread misinformation about
the election results are being described as a nightmare
scenario come true. But I don't know how to describe a
Biden presidency facing a hostile Senate and a 6-3
Supreme Court majority as anything but a nightmare as
well.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell will feel rightly
emboldened that his endless hardball maneuvering has
delivered the courts to the GOP for a generation, with
the threat of court expansion now at least temporarily in
the rearview. If the Roberts court
Newport 100s
Box invalidates the Affordable Care Act, Biden and
the Democrats will have no legislative route to a fix.
Congress will be unable to pass laws protecting
reproductive rights if Amy Coney Barrett and her pals
overturn or gut Roe v. Wade. The Court is also likely to
dramatically constrain Biden's ability to direct the
executive branch, setting the stage for multiple
constitutional crises. You should go ahead and Google the
GOP's long and now very plausible plot to dismantle what
they call "the administrative state. "
