Dems Kick Butt aka "Lawyer Up!"
By Mike Bibb
Texas will be red again. We have not suddenly become a bunch of tofu-eating, gun-banning, tutu-wearing pinko commie liberals. That ain't us. Texas is still Texas." — U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (TX-R) comments on X, Nov. 4, 2026.

Much to Sen. Cruz's chagrin, evidently there were enough Tofu-eating, gun-banning, pinko liberals to turn Texas Blue last Tuesday.
Along with several other states assisting in the Republican butt kicking — including New Mexico. Although, this election's results weren't much different than any other in the solidly Blue Land of Enchantment.
Reportedly, it only takes about three or four urban New Mexico counties scattered along the Rio Grand River to guarantee a Democrat national and state election victory. Leaving folks in the remaining 29-30 rural counties to wonder if their votes are of significance . . . other than in local contests.
Coincidentally, this situation is a good example of what to expect if Democrats ever abolish the Electoral College. With the EC gone, elections could be manipulated by only a few populous states. Less populous states would no longer have much say in the matter.
Basically, national elections would be decided by large East and West Coast metro centers, while farmers, ranchers, miners and small businesses in between could only look on in dismay.
The inevitable question becomes "Now that Democrats have gained control of both Houses of Congress, what are they going to do with them," besides serving Trump his morning fruit juice and subpoena toast for the rest of his term?
Which has sort of been the Dems' habit for the past several years.
However, they've gotta have more than that. While bashing the dude has become daily news in the liberal media and comedy talk shows, that won't bake the cookies if they're looking to regain the Presidency in 2028.
For the simple reason there are a lot folks who've lived through and remember the disaster of the Biden Administration. From beginning to end, a steady toilet flush of blunders, incompetency and political shenanigans committed from the Oval Office and Joe's buddies.
From the mismanagement of the COVID-19 epidemic, to allowing millions of undocumented immigrants to cross into our country, to pardoning various members of his family, including son, Hunter.
Joe was a real piece of work.
Not necessarily unexpected, since his nearly 50-year career in government employment rarely produced meaningful results.
He was simply a faithful Democrat vote in whatever he was told to support, whether he comprehended it or not.
Even then, near the end of his single term, he had no idea what was going on. Instead, being referenced by his handlers as simply "An elderly man with a poor memory."
Obviously.
So, when the "Lawyer up!" chants begin to fade and the actual legislative drudgery begins, what do Democrats have to offer?
Maybe, more fraud, free stuff, taxes, socialist gibberish and Islamic influence — paid for at your expense? Other than that, their agendas seem nearly empty of significant proposals.
Again, it hasn't been that long ago when Democrats, under Joe's guidance, saw inflation, gasoline and other products prices steadily rise.
Not to mention the economic toll inflicted by Joe and Dr. Tony Fauci's ludicrous COVID-19 policies. Business, school and church shutdowns were mandated and the "Work from home" mantra became an accepted remedy.
Along with a series of experimental vaccines and boosters — which have been exposed for not being the panacea they were touted to be. Actually, side-effects are becoming just as concerning as the alleged effectiveness of the shots.
Adding to Democrat's headaches, Trump is still President. His leadership position is not as strong as before, due to a reduced Republican presence in Congress. However, he still has his "Executive Order" pen — and "Veto Pen."
Consequently, Dems may discover it will not be easy to get everything they want with an obstinate Trump standing in the way.
Of course, they might indict or impeach him for one reason or another, but that repeated tactic could backfire at the polls in 2028. Much like it did for the Republicans this month.
The old folk wisdom "What goes around, comes around" always seems to be circling in the ether, waiting for the moment to descend and remind everyone its presence is just as real as a Congressional impeachment process.
As a result, puffy Congressional Members may want to keep that in mind when their arrogance and presumed importance begins to impact their better judgement.
Trump has two years left in his Constitutionally imposed final term. A Congress Member can serve as many times as he/she/it is reelected.
Since Congress makes the rules, little discussion is ever mentioned about limiting their own time in office; using the common refrain "I'm running for reelection because there's much more work I need to do."
After 20 or 30 years, that excuse has evolved into a worn-out cliche.
Considering the pay, government benefits and other advantages, who, in their right mind, would walk away from a gig like this?
It worked for Joe Biden nearly his entire adult life, until he was finally sent home. Not by losing an election — rather, recalled by the Democrat National Committee.
For the apparent reason Joe was becoming an embarrassment, served his purpose and was no longer coherent enough to continue.
Not sure he received a gold watch, since he had already poached various government documents and records.
Unless, out of sympathy and presidential respect, Trump gave him one of his publicly released 45-47 watches with matching red MAGA cap.
Other than that, history vividly expresses the pendulum eventually swings the other way!!!
