There was clear fraud in 2020 and it will happen again. It needs to be beaten and all the alphabet soup agencies FBI, CIA need to be completely dismantled.

Which brings me to Trump and looking ahead to '24. I'll beat the gong again for - Do NOT primary-in Trump! Do you want to win, Republicans? If so then get the F over Trump. He's just about the only way you can throw away another four years to the democrat termites.
i agree. desantis 2024.

Also agree. Trump is too much of a lightning rod. We can't take that chance for the sake of this country.

Um... I guess the 1934 Republicans and 1980 Democrats would be vindicated then? It's exceptionally rare for a reigning party to gain in the midterms. It's only happened a few times in the past century. But for it to happen while they were presiding over a downward spiralling economy and mismanaged foreign policy? You're talking about an unprecedented outcome that I don't even think has ever happened before in the history of this country when two separate parties have existed.

Not a guarantee, but people are not happy, most likely will be a pretty big upset for the Dems, we'll see I suppose.

Trump exceeded expectation even in the 2020 election, won a bunch of house seats back lost in 2018 and defended the competitive seats the Dems hoped to flip. This has never happened to a candidate who lost... its almost like it was stolen.

GOP won back seats lost in a flip in a closer year, is not unheard of.

FWIW, the GOP won seats in the House in 1996 despite losing the Presidency, the Democrats won seats in 2000 despite losing the Presidency. The GOP won seats in 1992 despite winning the Presidency.

3, Even Herschel Walker is in a close race and he is popular in Georgia.

4, Many individual races are neck and neck.

5, Look at Michigan, Democrats blocked Michigan's best Republican Candidate from getting on the ballot, probably because he is a black conservative and Biden is hostile to them openly telling them that they aren't black.

6, 5 months is a long time in politics.

7, wedge issues like abortion and guns will rile up the liberal base.

8, 2000 mules.

9, Early voting.

10, Republicans have a poor message.

11, Trump has his supporters, but he has millions who despise him and his connection to the party still hurts.
" Red Wave is No Guarantee"

I've noticed how many and I have MANY, dem friends no longer talk about politics but, when Trump was president could NOT STOP talking about it.

Says a LOT to me!


When your DISapproval 53.9, is HIGHER then your approval, 40.5, you have problems!
