This year's election won't be easy, but Democrats have a big advantage

Without question, defeating Donald Trump this year is job one—because if we don’t do that, job two will likely involve tossing deep-fried Soylent Green to the free-range Trump clones waiting for OG Don’s consciousness to upload into their brains for yet another go at infrastructure week.

That said, if we want government to function properly, and for President Joe Biden to have a Congress he can actually work with to achieve popular legislative goals, like restoring abortion rights nationwide, Democrats need to take back the House and keep the Senate. And while that’s certainly a tall order, given the difficult lineup of races Democrats face this cycle, there’s also plenty of good news on that front. Democrats are winning the Senate fundraising battle—in many cases by eye-popping margins.
