Will the charming Repub couple rightfully go to prison or will Barr and Trump get them off?

I admit sometimes I get confused as to why DC comes here to engage in semi-intellectual banter. I would think this place would be boring for him and his time might be better spent elsewhere engaging people who are on his level. Or even above it.
Actually, I really don't get all that confused. I think I pretty much have it nailed.

All this because I mocked Geezer for thinking that a Clinton-appointed federal judge and a U.S. attorney recommended by Kamala Harris and Diane Feinstein are part of a tRumP conspiracy?

Most Republicans believe their party has weathered the 2018 storm and brighter days are ahead in 2020. But that perspective doesn’t mean the GOP’s chances of retaking the House are particularly good.
Even if the national political environment isn’t as bad for the GOP as the midterms when they suffered a net loss of 40 House seats, there’s little evidence that President Donald Trump will dramatically improve his 2016 performance in key competitive districts next year.
That makes it difficult to envision Republicans winning those races, particularly without stellar candidates. And in some places, such as California and New Jersey, the GOP’s strongest House challengers (including Michelle Steel and Tom Kean Jr.) are running in difficult districts, against strong incumbents, or both.
With a combination of Republicans’ self-inflicted wounds, slow recruiting or suburbs continuing to shift against the president, Democratic chances of winning have improved in a dozen House races. Those rating changes include:
Arizona’s 6th District (David Schweikert, R) From Solid Republican to Likely Republican
California’s 25th (Vacant) Likely Democratic to Solid Democratic
Illinois’ 6th (Sean Casten, D) Leans Democratic to Likely Democratic
Illinois’ 13th (Rodney Davis, R) Tilts Republican to Toss-up
Iowa’s 2nd (Open; Dave Loebsack, D) Toss-up to Tilts Democratic
Iowa’s 4th (Steve King, R) Leans Republican to Tilts Republican
Michigan’s 8th (Elissa Slotkin, D) Tilts Democratic to Leans Democratic
Michigan’s 11th (Haley Stevens, D) Leans Democratic to Likely Democratic
Minnesota’s 1st (Jim Hagedorn, R) Leans Republican to Tilts Republican
Minnesota’s 2nd (Angie Craig, DFL) Leans Democratic to Likely Democratic
New Hampshire’s 1st (Chris Pappas, D) Leans Democratic to Likely Democratic
Virginia’s 2nd (Elaine Luria, D) Tilts Democratic to Leans Democratic

That would fit the pattern.
Trump wins. Dems hang on in House, pull closer in Senate.
In 2022, a total wipeout of the GOP, followed by a Democratic potus elected in 2024, with both houses of Congress...

I wasn't sure where to post this. Where do you post republican Representative from FL Matt Gaetz threatening republican Gov. of Georgia, Brian Kemp, because Kemp didn't appoint Trump's favorite to fill a vacant senate seat, Representative Doug Collins of Georgia? So since it's a threat about an election, I posted it here.
Gaetz is such an incredible pos, he's Trump without the money, or class.
"class" - I joke!

Virginia Republican Scott W. Taylor said Monday that he will end his U.S. Senate campaign against Sen. Mark R. Warner (D) and instead run for his old U.S. House seat representing Virginia Beach.
If Taylor wins a competitive Republican primary, he would face Rep. Elaine Luria, the Democrat who unseated him last year amid a wave of anti-Trump sentiment and a scandal over election petitions that embroiled Taylor’s campaign. His GOP opponents include Ben Loyola, a retired Navy captain and defense contractor whose family fled communist Cuba when he was 2...
“These girls that have national security backgrounds, they came out before there was any bit of evidence whatsoever, and they did so to create political cover for moderates to allow [House Speaker Nancy] Pelosi to move forward,” Taylor said early Monday on the John Fredericks radio show.
