c'mon guys! half of wielding power is acting like you have power even when you don't!

Before the elections could cause rabid Trump loyalist Republicans to sit back now that have everything they wanted and not show up to vote, sane Conservatives might show up and vote Democratic as either a protest vote or to protect their finances and property rights from wealthier loyalists with better political connections, and Democrats and Independents would vote Democratic because any resemblance of their accustomed way of life is dependent on it?

It is extremely difficult to put any positive spin on this.
