They are all very aware that the midterms are coming up in six months. An unpopular war in the middle east could make the blowout even worse than it is already likely to be. Those bastards would certainly like to keep their jobs. You think they aren't thinking about this?

The fact that the Trump regime is acting in the way it is and extending this conflict as long as it has without resolution tells me that they're not really so concerned with midterms.

Which, I mean, that should concern you as a US voter. Why aren't they?

I think Trump is a) fine with losing the house because they will hold the senate, regardless, and he is fine with ruling like a king and abusing executive power. b) they're actively rigging things to pull a rabbit out the hat in November anyways.

Getting a Putin-esque (or, actually more like Erdogan or Netanyahu) type persona out of power by elections is incredibly hard.
