    Biden did historically well in the midterms tbh. If it wasn’t for gerrymandering and a population capped House, Dems would still have complete control of Congress

      Yeah but it still kneecaps them. He can’t even do a sweetheart border deal without the House.

        Yeah my point is that voters did show up. Dems did historically well in 2022 for an incumbent party

        Its just that the structure of our electoral politics favors rural areas and gerrymandered districts. Which currently means the red team benefits. Which isn’t the fault of recent voters
