From the article:
Quote:
Peter DeFazio will retire from Congress in latest blow to Democrats
His move also comes as Democrats are widely expected to lose the majority in the House in 2022, which is likely to have factored into his decision.

The Republican strategy should be: "Make sure Joe is in office until the mid-terms are done."
1. If Joe leaves for any reason, we get Kamala.
2. If Kamal slips in the shower, we get the Speaker of the House
2A. If before mid-terms, that would be Nancy.
2B. If after mid-terms, that would be some Republican.
If I have this wrong, please correct me.
