OOC: okay, but what’s supposed to have happened is some sort of compromise bill where some Dems agree to support tariffs in return for an increased spending package on the part of the GOP
OOC: Look, getting the 1924 election thrown into the House with Coolidge as president and Davis as the Democratic candidate is extremely difficult but not
quite impossible (though without faithless electors it requires Coolidge to lose at least one state that he carried by 19.32 points or more!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1924_United_States_presidential_election) But even if it happens it is most unlikely to involve Coolidge even appearing to take an anti-tariff stand in 1924!
BTW, in OTL the (very unlikely) possibility that the race cold go into the House probably helped Coolidge. As I noted in another post:
One of Coolidge's themes was "Coolidge or chaos." The idea was that if Coolidge didn't get a majority in the Electoral College, the race would go into the House where it might be deadlocked. If that happened, the vice-president chosen by the Senate would become president. According to horrified Republicans, that might be Davis's running mate Charles Bryan (portrayed as a half-witted radical) thanks to a Senate alliance of Democrats and "farm bloc" Republicans! Hence the GOP slogan (one of the most bizarre in US political history): "A vote for Davis is a vote for Bryan, a vote for La Follette is a vote for Bryan. A vote for Coolidge is a vote for Coolidge."
