@jimmipadge There are people who are genuinely interested in world affairs and love interacting with informed people, not imposters with a political agenda.
When you have to read something that's not relevant, intelligent, and obviously a cliché. You're going to want to let the poster know that they are uninformed.
It's my public service to advise you that you are lost. If it helps, get GPS, a map, and a mirror, but don't pretend to be Henry Kissinger, Noam Chomsky, or an intellectual. You're entitled to an opinion on international affairs, so I'm giving you the feedback and a grade of D+.

The final results are still unknown, but most consider midterm elections as a referendum on the White House incumbent and majority in Congress.
Since the balance of power is virtually unchanged, it's seen as 1) justification to maintain the status quo; or 2) a mandate for the president to continue his agenda.
The Democrats do appear to be celebrating, but it's mostly due to the many of Trump-backed candidates and election deniers that lost their campaigns. This will make the GOP leadership more competitive.
In the end, there will likely be a slight GOP majority in the House and the Senate remaining unchanged.
The GOP invested billions of dollars during this campaign season and expected Red Wave, and a solid majority to stop the president's agenda.
With the inflation rates, crime, Biden's low approval, and border situation being problematic, they expected to be awarded with a landslide of seats and have the power to pass veto-proof legislation.
We're two days out from the vote, and we still don't know the final results, which means that it was much closer to being evenly split than expected.
With the forecasted number of winning seats, the GOP won't be in a strong enough of a position to block the president's agenda. They will have the ability to pick the Speaker and committee assignments, not much else.

Previously, I had little or no interest in appeasing the fascist cult members, but there could be a reasonable power-sharing agreement and coalition arrangement that could help. It doesn't even require changing any laws or amending the constitution. Each of the two major political parties and their nominees can implement this.
Rather than the election for president and vice president continue being a "zero-sum game," we could return to the previous method of selecting the vice president: The candidate who gets the most electors will still become president, but the change is that the person receiving the second-most electors should become vice president. Currently, the running mate of the winner becomes vice president.
Since the vice president is mostly a ceremonial role, we could possibly have a Biden-Trump Administration, without it triggering a constitutional crisis. Also, since the DOJ Memo and legal opinion that prohibits the DOJ from indicting a sitting president does NOT apply to the vice president, Jack Smith can continue doing God's work in prosecuting Trump; i.e., if Biden wins and Trump is the GOP nominee.

The US and some EU sanctions against Russia are slightly different since they apply to, and must be followed by, every country that does business in US dollars.
As with all DC politics, American business interest has intervened since the Magnitski Act and later Crimean, Donbass, Malaysian Air bombing, and chemical-weapons related sanctions were apply to Russian oligarchs and business contracts.
During the Trump Administration, the US LNG and energy sector had more influence in the drafting of US sanctions. Under Biden, although he's administration is openly more hostile to Putin, they are more open to negotiating sanctions relief because he has authority to relax sanctions than Trump could on Russia. It politically, and by law, nearly impossible for Trump to remove any sanctions on Russia.
