The danger of Trump & the right-wing is real – but we'll never be able to stop the far-right if we follow the lead of the Democrats.

tl, dr = Congress is elected every two years.
well, 2/3 of it anyway.
I guess it was too long a read.
One third of the Senate and all of the House of Representatives are elected every two years.
I guess it was too long a read.
I guess fractions are hard?
= 1/2 + 1/2 * 1/3
= 1/2 + 1/6
= 3/6 + 1/6
= 4/6
= 2/3
435 members of the House of Representatives.
100 Members of the Senate.
535 total.
435 + 34 = 469.
469 x 2/3 = 312.
Also, in US politics, the President and the Legislature [combined House and Senate] and the Supreme Court are each considered one third of the total government.
So, you're wrong twice.
