- GOP members of the House of Representatives will rediscover suddenly that deficits are bad
- Beltway pundits will warn House Democrats not to "overplay their hand" in holding hearings and investigations, or otherwise providing what used to be considered Constitutional check and balances and oversight of arguably the most corrupt Administration in American history
- Addendum to above: media will focus on optics and who is being helped or hurt by Democratic oversight and largely ignore the scandals or issues that are the subject of the oversight; Hint: they will always opine it's hurting the Democrats; bonus points if they can use the word "disarray"; I'd turn this into a drinking game but it would put people into a coma
- The media will begin focusing largely on 2020 politics and ignore issues
- The sorry state of American democracy - gerrymandering, voter suppression, long lines in largely minority areas, malfunctioning machines, machines vulnerable to manipulation and hacking, will be ignored by the media, or will only be viewed within the framework of tactics, not of what it means to a functioning democracy, or I know, a "representative republic"
- Paul Ryan will make more Sunday morning news show appearances than Nancy Pelosi
- Mitt Romney and Bernie Sanders will be regulars on said Sunday morning shows, bashing of Democrats encouraged
- Whenever Hillary Clinton speaks out on an issue, people, especially pundits, will wonder why she doesn't just go away
- People we will seldom, if ever, see on Sunday morning news shows: Kamala Harris, Corey Booker, Sherrod Brown, Jeff Merkley, Elizabeth Warren, Amy Klobuchar, Maxine Waters
- Nancy Pelosi will be lectured and chastised for not doing more to "reach across the aisle" and work with Mitch McConnell and Donald Trump to "get something done"; this criticism will be unidirectional
- The Beltway media will not take Trump to task for threatening to investigate House Dems for, you know, doing their jobs
- There will be several more caravans of desperate asylum seekers from Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador who will make their way towards the United States; we will not hear about them, or even the current one, ever again until the final months of the 2020 election; at that time the media will use the word "crisis" to describe the situation
- Water will continue to invade Florida's coast and streets; in response Marco Rubio will tweet Bible verses and Rick Scott will ask "What climate change? We've always had high tides and water"
- Indictments will be handed down against even more people from Trump's campaign and administration; in response crowds at his rallies will chant "lock her up" at the mention of the following names: Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, Elizabeth Warren, Maxine Waters, because you know, something or other; all while holding signs that read "Drain the Swamp"
- Crimes against synagogues, mosques, Muslims and Jews will increase; the media will suggest House Dems cool it with the rhetoric and return to civility
- Nobody, except the media and Fox News, will pretend Donald Trump even has a day job
