If repugs get a majority in the House or Senate...

They will go wild with real witch hunt investigations and supeona everyone and everything that has criticised Trump in the past.

Will Dems ignore the supeonas or will they comply and play along?

1. Doesn't matter. Republicans are incompetent idiots, nothing will come of any investigations

except wasted time.

3. I disagree. The emails & Benghazi witch hunts were key to donnie winning in 2016

If you mean they're incompetent at investigating to uncover the truth, or to get successful prosecutions, sure, they're incompetent idiots at that.

But that's not really their goal.

5. Absolutely the media was and remains reprehensible. But it's hand and glove

Between the right-wing fake smear machine and the media that just eats it up.

The media should have covered the investigations as a high-risk fishing expedition for the republicans. Gambling that they'll find proof of criminality. That way, there's a consequence for coming up short.

The way the media covered it, Hillary lost even though she was cleared of wrongdoing and republicans won even though they abused their powers unethically and wasted tons of federal money and time for zero indictments.

So of course republicans smear democrats. The media makes it a gamble republicans can't lose no matter what.

2. I think they'll have to comply, just like Hillary did.

It might depend on what Jim Jordan and others do if they're subpoenaed by the 1/6 Committee. If they refuse to comply and aren't compelled by the courts to testify, then Democrats might ignore subpoenas as well. Refusing to testify is not a good look, though. I think Democrats should do all they can to get members of Congress to testify and should testify themselves if told to do so. It's bullshit that some people can ignore subpoenas about it while others go to jail for it.

6. Our side

Doesn't do anything wrong. They can dig all they want to but there is nothing to find and it is only theater. The public knows this.

8. It will be much worse than that if they also put Trump back into the White House.

There will be revenge. People will be imprisoned. People will disappear.

I don't think we can imagine how bad it might get.

No, the Rs will be much more selective and focused than that. They will use Pelosiroo's tactics without Schifftyroo's disregard for due process rights, and they will target crimes actually committed.

I wish they would go scorched earth like that because it is the only way to make the communist democrat party not continue this type of tripe.... but sadly the republicants won't do a damn thing to the liars, cheats, and liars of the donkeycommies.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Republican politicians have gone so long without a damned spine their immune systems would instantly reject one if it were surgically transplanted in them.

I hope an R House impeaches Biden many times. The Democrats have shown us that even if the president doesn't do anything wrong that he can be impeached purely on political grounds. Of course Biden would probably never get convicted in The Senate but I think hanging three impeachments around Biden's neck would be great payback for what they did to Trump.

It would be amusing to watch. 

I suspect the left will accuse the republican lead house of elder abuse is they did.
