...now I'm not suggesting this will be the outcome, but if it is...how will this affect Harris ability to get anything done?
In the event that the 2 legislative chambers are controlled by the Republicans it seems that Harris would be a lame duck President wouldn't she? She wouldn't have nearly the authority that her predecessor Biden has had.
Anyway that's what I thought may unfold. So if the Congress ends up being Republican with a Democratic President wouldn't that limit Harris' power quite a bit? Seems she would have difficulty passing the most ambitious parts of her agenda.

Way I look at it Lab Flaker
Lab Flaker ... Americans like Harris better than Trump as a person...but they don't appear to trust her on the economy as much.
So even if she wins, it might be a conditional mandate. Like Clinton had in the 90s. A Democratic presidency with a Republican Congress.
As it stands the Democrats are behind in the Senate races.

It's a serious proposition DKG
DKG. Even if Harris gets the keys to the WH but the Republicans control Congress that would limit her mandate right?
Like...shes talking about spending all this money on this or that. But the Republicans might say...they don't want them to overspend so that might act as a buffer.
Didn't you once say that Congress controls the spending...DKG?

If, and that is a very big IF, she wins and Congress is Republican controlled, then nothing she proposes will get passed. The Republicans have nothing to lose by ignoring her.

If WW3 were to break out sooner than later, Trump would be the better choice hands down, rather than a menstrual clown with pronouns.
