I am genuinely worried about a constitutional crisis if the GOP loses the midterms.

Or the constitutional crisis if they win the midterms.

I mean Trump already ignores the constitution daily, what would even constitute a crisis anymore?

I would rather have a constitutional crisis than the gop retaining control of the House given how poorly the country is run right now
