20 Republicans are up for reelection in the senate. If all of them lost, Trump could be removed. If 13 of them lost, the senate could change the rules and he could be removed. If just 6 or 7 of them lost, then the senate could change the rules for fillibuster and potentially remove him or at least heavily restrict his actions, while passing more progressive reforms than any time in the past 13 years. To be clear about that, the US Senate has had 48 or less DNC for over 13 years, things could change drastically for the better in this midterm election.
I can really only imagine about 4 of those being competitive. Most of those states are deep red, and Republicans aren’t known for stepping out of line to make a moral stand.

While I agree that nothing will change if we just languish in defeatism, look at the list!
