If she does end up losing her seat and wants, I think she would be a solid appointment for Biden to make somewhere.

she still holds a lot of republican views, don't think she's an ally outside of this fight.

a level playing field means a level playing field for everyone. even fucking idiots. if they win on a level field, then their constituents deserve them. we'll just have to work at isolating the damage they can cause.

I agree, but at the same time I would trust her to not sell out if she was appointed to an ambassadorship somewhere.

I wouldn't want to see her in charge of combating climate change or corporate tax reform or anything, but do think that she has proven herself on the right side of standing up for our democracy.

I republican base doesn't read the Wall Street Journal, if they can read at all! Tucker and Hannity won't turn on him, Murdoch make too much money from the suckers, just like Trump, Rupert scams them too. The FOX news division can only spin reality so much before they spin off into outer space.

There is no level playing field with the constituents being tugged this way, then that, by skilled communicators with the money to keep minting tasty lies. I will wager that if you took a census of MTG’s district and asked the right questions, you’ll find that most who voted for her believe a lot of nonsense, which is the way the folks in suits like it.

That is because there is money in it.
Take the money out of the equation.

Should the Democrats gain enough power, I wonder if these possible laws might help.

1) All lobbyists must record how much they gave whom, and must donate a matching amount to this nation’s public schooling system.

2) Churches are defined as lobbyists.

3) find some way to make dark money less of either

Countries with the least corruption tend to have the strongest laws against the influence of money on politics. Dark money is a problem, so is a SCOTUS that ruled money is speech, it's like saying the richer you are, the more votes you get or can get for your stooge. If the democrats can pack the court and or get rid of some of the asshole justices like Thomas, Citizens United is one law that needs to be overturned. Make lobbying illegal and the housing market in DC would collapse!
