To be fair, they were going to do that regardless. Look at states where the left is in total control - like here in California. Even in those places - where they should be bearing sole blame when shit goes south - they still manage to pass it off onto the right.
This is the power of having control of the media/internet companies. You own the narrative. You get to decide what the idiots on the left, and a lot of those in the middle, view as reality.
TLDR: It doesn't matter if they let the GOP have the house. The media/internet companies will see to it that the blame for whatever suffering comes from their policies is put on Trump/the GOP.
For sure. As I said when we were talking about this the other day a Republican Speaker with a governing nightmare on his hands is far preferable to a Pelosi Speakership, simply because the Dem's party discipline means that they can keep this Biden disaster going even with a very narrow majority. Don't expect anything good to happen in the next 2 years but at least the horrors will (mostly) stop.
I told you the Dems would let the Republicans take the House narrowly so they can blame the incoming economic depression on them.

And you were right. I'm man enough to admit when my predictions don't come true.
I am not trying to rub it in or anything.
I am just glad Pelosi won't have the gavel.

if he gets the house doing nothing but folding paper airplanes for the next 2 years he will be the best speaker of the house to ever live.
but we all know it'll just be pelosi's agenda on drip feed.
RED WAVE WHOOO!!
