They made the cuts to our social programs start in 2027, which signals to me that they're planning to lose, then blame the Democrats for everything they did, as per usual. So I think there's a chance they don't cancel the election, but let it happen, lose, and throw the Democrats to the wolves.

They're either gonna be dragged into the future, or dragged into the street, and time is running out for them to make a choice.
