    I think you underestimate the damage Congress can cause if they want to.

    But they really can’t though. The GOP can pass whatever they want in the house. It would be DOA in the senate and would never make it past Biden’s desk.

    And yes, there’s the what-if if Trump wins the election, but they’d still have to gain control of the WH and both chambers of Congress for that to happen. And if the GOP sweeps in November, we have much bigger problems to worry about.

    There’s really no reason why these colleges should be folding to pressure from the GOP.
