I agree with you, its silly to even hope BUT: Somehow the ultra far right republicans at least claim to be against it, since its a tool of the deep state that the FBI really likes and they want to piss off the FBI. So I've been clinging to that even tho realistically it's never going to happen, and its funny in a sort of horseshoe theory way to think about the nutjobs accidentally being the only people in congress on my side
