It’s starting to look that way. Let’s start with a bit of theater of the absurd. The day began with a disastrous miss on the September jobs report. While Zhou tried to talk it up—reading from a teleprompter—reliable regime apologists were stunned. Per TGP:
The funniest part is watching hack Neil Cavuto, or maybe hack Fox producers, pull away from Biden as soon as they realize what an absolute train wreck it is - and then not comment on what an absolute train wreck they just witnessed.
Imagine if this had been Trump (or Reagan or any other R President) during his presidency and not Biden - ya think the media would’ve ignored it?
"Though the numbers are not overwhelming, they signal a potentially ominous trend for Democrats."
That the numbers are close to the margin of error is a searing indictment of McConnell's and the GOPe's complicity. Ineptitude could not possibly account for the Senate's failure to bedevil Biden the way that Schumer's minority hamstrung Trump. While the country falls apart the GOPe approves Biden's radical cabinet choices. While Biden buries the country in debt the GOPe gives Biden breathing room by keeping the government open via a debt ceiling patch. Etc., etc., etc.,
The GOP is without a rudder. As appalling as Biden has been, it is instructive to see that the people of this country barely favor the GOP over the Biden Clown Car. At this point if we have a nuclear exchange with China that destroys half the country, the GOP might pick up 1-2 points in favorability. The country is in an existential battle with a hugely powerful entrenched interests within. As we slip inexorably into leftist tyranny and a Weimar Republic-style debt disaster, the GOP is worried about being blamed for shutting down the government. Heck, even if "we" win in 2022 why should we expect things to improve? As Strother Martin said it Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, "Morons. I've got morons on my team."
Speaking of the Democrats, holy %@#!, has everyone seen this Biden clip?

Yes, I saw that--I was floored.

"That the regime went ahead with it anyway is remarkable", unless the DS has plans (e.g. a super virus) to hugely change everything.
There is that, but the demographics of that would seem to be backfiring.
A targetable virus (e.g. w/ a sufficient supply of antidotes for the DS's pals) can change many things very fast.
“Democrats are on the edge of an electoral abyss.”
And deservedly so. Rot in hell fascist bastards.
