The Republicans favored taking both houses by a landslide before Conservative/partisan SC gutted Roe. Now Brandon has another two years to stack the courts with liberals.

House is gone and Senate in play. The rest is wishful thinking. To keep lying to the people and the base to get money is shameful.
What the media doesn't say is that Pelosi and the Democrats lost 14 seats in 2020 and the GOP only needs now 6 seats for a majority.
Funny how they give Pelosi a pass. After losing Congress in 2010 by losing 63 seats and control, they kept her the leader of the Democrats in the house and she lost 4 house elections in a row. They kept her in 2018 and she will lose control again. That would be 5 elections that Pelosi has lost as a leader.
More facts. Democrats finished with
235 seats in 2018 and they called it a great blue wave. GOP in 2022 has
212 seats and only needs 23 seats to match the Democrat lead in 2018. The GOP will win a lot more than 23 seats but Democrats like with always will change the standards of a good election to downplay the Republican win.
GOP will match the record of house election from 1994 which they ended with
230 seats and 2012 of
242 seats and both years were great years for the GOP.
3 scenarios:
1) GOP in 2022 only needs to win 23 seats to match the Democrats in 2018 which they say it was a great blue wave.
2) They need 18 seats to get the same majority of seats of 1994 GOP total majority which was a great year for Republicans.
3) They need 30 seats to match the GOP majority of seats in 2010 which was another great year for Republicans.
Either scenario is a good win for the GOP. My bet is that they will pass #1 and #2 options and a good chance for #3. The fact is the GOP started the takeover in 2020 by winning 14 seats so they making it to 230, 235 or 242 seat majority from 212 seats they have now it an easier task.
By the GOP winning 14 seats in 2020, the GOP doesn't need much to get to with 230 seats or 235 or even 242. Democrats will spin it.
