It’s my opinion we’re going to see a swell of moderation in both houses. People are worn out with the political bickering.

Trump’s economic and foreign policies benefited Americans of all stripes. It was the man himself who lost his re-election. Chuck and Nancy aren’t getting the mandate they believe to burn it down and the Squad is no where near as influential as the media wants everyone to think.

All of this talk about stacking the courts and giving statehood to PR and DC will never get traction. Wait and see.

Even if Loeffler and Perdue won, I would still walk away baffled that the election what THIS close with THESE candidates in a RED state like Georgia. It is just insane to me.

I can agree with you that because of the slim majority in both Congress and the Senate, nothing too extreme will ensue THIS time. "Moderate" democrats are already on record for not wanting to get rid of the filibuster, so I assume that line of thinking will bleed into statehood and packing the courts. 

Whatever Stacy Abrams did will be mirrored in other states like Texas that are suddenly turning purple. Not sure where the GOP goes from here. I do know that raising corporate tax rates (#1 on the agenda) on the back end of a pandemic isn't going to be a good thing. Biden also promised additional 2K stimulus as well, so the debt will continue to skyrocket. It will be a good year(s) for bitcoin and precious metals I think.
