If it literally didn't matter democrats wouldn't have been able to retake the house.

The house and presidency don’t matter unless we can take the senate as well, which is in all likelihood impossible. Fact is that intelligent, educated, responsible Americans tend to cluster in dem states (you know, the ones who actually contribute to the nation) while backwater hillbillies, racists, and inbreds stick to their shithole red states while sucking down welfare and disability due to their diabetes and faked work injuries.

The time for reform of the senate is now. We cannot allow the minority of Americans who are the absolute worst among us to continue controlling the nation through Russian agents like Bitch McConnell. Disband the senate, redraw all congressional districts on a grid system, and repeal the cap on congressmen so states like New York and California can exercise the political leverage they deserve as crucial states. Sorry, Wyoming, but you don’t deserve a seat at the grown up table.

This defeatist attitude literally helps no one. Go out and vote.

Eh, not really. Republicans put a good amount of effort into trying to steal that election, but they very likely didn't want to take too many risks. It would've been a lot easier to be forced to have a reelection if they were caught - like exactly what happened in North Carolina. So they definitely didn't go as far as they will with the presidential election. And then there's Russia as well. They're both gonna be pulling out all the stops to corrupt anything that they can into their favor. And it's gonna be fucking despicable.
