Sunday at 07:44 PM2 days Trump allows more foreign ag workers, eases off ICE raids on farms • Stateline https://share.google/q1PYU4l9VDHPj8nkAIn a tacit admission that U.S. food production requires foreign labor, the Trump administration is making it easier for farmers to employ guest workers from other countries.At the same time, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in recent months appears to be refraining from conducting agricultural workplace raids, even as it scours Democratic-led cities for immigrants who are in the country illegally."We really haven’t seen agriculture targeted with worksite enforcement efforts, and early this year we did,” said Julia Gelatt, associate director of U.S. immigration policy at the Migration Policy Institute, a nonpartisan think tank.

Trump commands a bigger devoted following than W did, so there's probably no way for him to drop below 28 or 29. Doesn't really matter though. Anywhere even close to 30% is damaging his party for the foreseeable future.

Only problem I see is that Democrats still don’t have a good agenda to pounce on what is basically being handed to them. It’s not in the "bag” as their poll numbers are really bad also. Another issue will be the handling of the election process. It’s never been questioned before (only after 2020) and we all don’t know to what extent they will try to cheat to stay in power.

Block anything Trump does, investigate the administration constantly, that's about all they can do anyway. It's not like they can put up bills and get them signed into law, but just obstructing would be a huge improvement. And they're polling pretty great honestly, if you're looking at important midterm races, or hypothetical races in states that haven't held their primaries. The election process is what it is. There's no chance Dems vote for the Save Act, so that's not going anywhere. And he can't just federalize the elections, so they'd have to sabotage them one by one, state by state, district by district. Seems like a stretch, but obviously Dems need to be ready to counter it everywhere they try.

They have to offer some type of vision to fix what has been broken. If they can get anything done with a Republican Senat (most likely) and Trump is another story. If their only agenda is impeachment, then we will go through the same cycle again and nothing will change.

They shouldn't want to get anything done with a Rep Senate and Trump and in fact, if they even try they'll likely pay a price for it. When someone's burning your house down you don't ask the arsonist to work with you on putting it out. I'm all for them saying what they'll do after they retake complete power, starting with severe prison time for anyone in the admin that's broken any laws (so everyone basically), but the only way they can 'fix' what's broken and ensure it doesn't happen again is to up the stakes to anyone that tries. As it stands now, the Reps drive to dismantle the constitution and break any and every law hasn't put them in prison. Until they start paying an actual price for it, it's just going to keep happening. What the Trump era has taught us is that there really aren't that many tangible barriers keeping our leadership in line and keeping our republic in place. Most of it was simply precedent, patriotism and common decency. But the way the Republican party has gone, they don't care about precedent, they aren't even remotely patriotic and they have no decency, so they need to pay a real price or else it's just going to keep happening until there's nothing left.But to you're last point, I don't think impeachment matters. It won't happen so it's a waste of time even trying. They should just be churning investigations strictly for the headlines. If they introduce laws, they should only be for the headlines too. Laws like chemical castration for any male J6er who was pardoned by Trump, mandatory prison sentences for any relative of the President who does business overseas, stuff to grab headlines that'll never go anywhere.

There's no reason to really do anything other than letting the GOP/Trump keep failing. If they get the House, launch investigations and expose everything they can, but DO NOT impeach him again as that rallies Trump's base.
