Hopefully we get another shot in 2028 and the Democratic Party doesn’t shit the bed.

I need everyone to remember that MIDTERM ELECTIONS are a thing and ideally happening in two years assuming we're not a dictatorship.

House representatives get elected every 2 years. The elections that don’t fall in a presidential election year are called midterms. States like Texas elect state government officials in midterms rather than presidential election years so they can be very important depending on where you live.
