With all saw what happened in the 2018 mid term elections with Donald Trump campaigning 24-7!

Quote:
With the Senate unlikely to remove President Trump from office, the impact of the impeachment trial is most frequently viewed by whether it will help or hurt his reelection chances in November.
But it’s not just the electoral prospects of the president that are under the microscope as the Senate trial kicks into gear. The fate of a handful of incumbent senators facing tough races — and ultimately whether Democrats or Republicans control the Senate after 2020 — may be on the line.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell currently oversees a 53-47 Republican majority. Democrats would have to flip four seats to gain control of the chamber if Trump wins reelection and only three if a Democrat unseats him, thanks to the vice president’s role as the tiebreaking vote in the Senate.

Ditto!

The entire three years of resist, the non-stop witch hunt, all the divisive and expensive BS has cost the Dem's.

The impeachment is the last straw for independents. I know because I am one.

Again, for the umpteenth time, I did not vote for Trump. I voted for the Libertarian. I am a Paul Libertarian.


I will be voting for Trump this time around, and I will sleep like a baby knowing I voted for the right person. So will millions more.






I hope the left will blame Shiff, Pelosi, Waters, Nadler, Schumer, AOC and the 4 horse manures. The Dem's have been pulled off the cliff.

Yeah, that's the endgame here for the Dems. I don't think they're actually trying to make Mike Pence president, which is what removing Trump from office would do, and is why I'm lukewarm on the idea of actually doing that.

The other day, one of the double-digit IQs on my Facebook feed shared something about how they were going to "vote Nancy Pelosi out of office." I asked them if they were moving to San Francisco first, where her district is.

They don't really understand how it works.

I'm not really a Pelosi fan and would vote for somebody else if I could. But I can't, and I understand why not.

Could impeachment cost the GOP its Senate majority?
It could do that if they continue to show contempt for the law and the constitution. They can get through this with honor, while getting what they want (acquit Trump), but the mockery is not working well.

Oh please! Tell me one current candidate that could beat Trump.




I'm prepared to see HRC or Michelle Obama jump in on the brokered convention that is coming.


Mike Bloomberg is the only other logical choice and he is an old white billionaire! GREAT OPTICS for the party of identity politics. Maybe if he had Buttigieg (how great of a name is that BUTT-E-GIG) as his running mate (his running mate! I crack me up) he might get 45%.


Everyone else will be grounded in a logical choice.


Everything abut the US is running on high octane. Best EVERYTHING in decades.


Good luck to anyone still deluding themselves into believing they stand a chance against a guy who will chew them up and spit them out in a debate. It would be hilarious!!!


I am so looking forward to this. It'll be Jeb Bush (Deer in headlights) 2.0!


I can't wait!!!

Trumpism is just identity politics for white people afraid of their impending future as a minority, and Baby Boomers who were hippies in 1969 rolling around in mud and raw sewage, cultivating new strains of venereal disease, getting high on drugs, talking for decades about how it was the pinnacle of American culture in the latter half of the 20th century, and about how they changed the world. And now they're scared ****less that another group of young people has that power now.

I think sanders has the best chance to beat trump. will the democrats nominate him? the establishment democrats don't want him nor the DNC. do I want him to be nominated....no. I want biden to be the nominee. I want trump to win a second term.

I think trump will beat biden easily. but Bernie? not so sure.

The outcome won't be good either way. The Democrats have announced that they will view the President's reelection fixed, and won't abide by the tally if Trump wins.

Sounds like Venezuela.
