2,5 million votes and it comes down to 280. Sounds totally legit.

If one race was this close you might argue that's a coincidence. However there are so many elections that decide the balance of power that come to within a few votes. And they just happen to turn out in the Dems' favor.

Looks like a system designed for the illusion of votes mattering. "Next time you can totally win! All you need are a few dozen votes! It'll totally work then and you won't be exactly 164 votes short! Promise!"

I'd actually be interested to get a statistical breakdown of these types of races. I'd guess that they lean more towards "establishment uniparty candidate" vs. specifically "Democrat". But it would be nice to be able to say, "yeah, it seems that somehow Democrats are just such lucky bastards that they somehow manage to win 90% of close races."

... the DNC's opening the door to going after the President's finances with Biden in office?

That's a bold move...

They know it won't mean anything.

Well, it'll actually make them get rid of Ol' Yeller, clearly something the DNC already wants to do, even if it doesn't seem to have any decent candidates.

Then again, in an era of the most popular presidential candidate ever does it really matter the name on the ballot?

Release of Trump’s federal tax returns ushers in a charged new era of presidential oversight

No it fucking won't. This is only about Trump and will only ever be about Trump. They hate that man so much, I hope he runs as a third-party candidate just to fuck them all over.

Or the next big opponent they deal with.

There won't be another big opponent, all there so called opponents will be part of the uni party.
