The Republicans are probably going to have to worry about re-nominating Johnson as speaker. They're nowhere near constitutional amendment territory. Constitutional Amendments tend to happen when the U.S consolidates into a 1.5 party system like it did in reconstruction (GOP became the dominant party for four decades) and new deal (Democratic party became the dominant party for four decades.) Sometimes, if the parties are close enough ideologically, like they still somewhat were during the 90's you can get a non-controversial one passed liked the 27th. The states would have to agree to it too, and while the Republicans have a majority of states, they don't have a super-majority, and most of their majority aren't trifectas. Having said that, I think Obama would easily win. He is the last president to get a genuine landslide. You had hard "r" speaking racists voting for him.If Biden could beat Trump, Obama easily would. |
Obama campaigned for Harris. He told the minorities, and woman, especially blacks, to vote for Kamala, because she's black, and a woman, which would be historic. Plus Obama was the first black POTUS.
Way too many of those demographics voted for Trump anyway. Barry doesn't have the swagger and charm that he used to, and that was his main sale.
