Eighth: The findings of the January 6 Committee will be reported. It won't be a pretty picture for Trump or the Republican Party. If Democrats are wise, they'll let Republican Liz Cheney, vice-chair of the committee, lead the charge - presenting the findings and blasting traitorous Trump and seditionist Republicans on every TV network, radio outlet, and whistle-stop around the country. Reminded of the sedition, more voters will swing toward Democrats.
Ninth: In light of this report - and desperate to keep the 2024 Republican nomination for himself - Trump will increase the volume and intensity of his wacko conspiracy theories and other lies. This will motivate even more Democrats as well as Independents and moderate Republicans to vote for Democrats in November.
Tenth and finally: If they're smart, Joe Biden and the Democrats will center their midterm campaign message on the vulnerability of average working Americans to big corporations and Wall Street, which continue to siphon off most economic gains while the typical American is barely holding on. Biden and other Democrats will show that the GOP is still the party of trickle-down economics, corporate welfare, and crony capitalism - a party that's been blocking a slew of common-sense Democratic measures to help working Americans - which, they'll argue, is why we need more Democrats in the House and Senate.
Presto. A huge turnout in favor of Democrats this November, which results in Democrats retaining or even increasing their margins in the House and Senate.
Is this really possible? Democrats have snatched defeat out of the jaws of victory too many times for me to feel confident. But the scenario I've sketched is far from being out of the question.
