    Actually, history would suggest you’re wrong.

    Clinton, Dubya, Obama, and Trump all had control of Congress going into office and lost it at the mid-terms. It’s such a strong historical pattern I expect it to repeat in 2026.

    The problem here is that both parties rule as conservatives, so you can change who (at least based on outward appearances) has power, but the wealthy class is still pulling all of the strings anyway.
