What districts are these Trump loyalists going to win? Do you really think a MTG clone is going to win a purple district? Sure the Trump loyalists will do good in deep red counties and probably unseat some establishment Republicans, but that isn't a winning strategy across the country.

Someone didn't even read the original post.


So, seriously, why even bother responding?

This is true....wokeism largely fueled by democrats peaked during the year or two run up to the 2020 election. The Democratic Party hitched their wagon to a cause that will eat them alive the moment they don’t show undying loyalty. Now they will pay the political price for it as people continue processing what it’s about and return toward normalcy.

And that is, the New Populist Right are actually ascendant, and the Republican Party is well ahead of where they need to be.

No doubt the Lefties on this board will write this off in one fashion or another, and that's just fine by me. They do so at their own electoral peril.

Commies: Enjoy getting nothing accomplished til November 2022 because you lost 15 House seats and don't have a mandate to do jack. With the redistricting we're gonna exercise, you guys won't know what just happened.


It's going to be glorious.
The Republican voters have learned nothing, just like the party has learned nothing.

Another cycle of RINOs.

Blank faced "hurray".

I'm not happy with the political atmosphere these days. I feel like I can't vote for the sock puppet party of Trump, because lunacy. But I have issues with the questionable policies of the progressives. I'll try to vote centrist and avoid Trumpies like the black death, but may not have any good options. My biggest hope is for a split Congress with the Dems in charge of the Senate as a bulkward against a Mar Lardo come back. *shudders* I'll say the odds of the former are fairly decent. Five Republican senators are retiring from the crazy train party.

https://www.theguardian.com/commenti...er-suppression

Weak republicans have no choice but to resort to their disgraceful voter suppression laws and future gerrymandering.

They're simply too weak to compete on truly level playing fields.

Just look at what happened to weak republicans in last year's election:

Presidency
Joe: 81,282,916
Weak don: 74,223,369

(Note: The weak republican candidate has now lost the national popular vote in seven out of the last eight presidential elections. Sad.)

House
Dem votes: 77,545,850
Weak repub votes: 72,837,502

Senate
The 50 weak republican senators represent just 43% of the U.S. population. Clearly a joke of an institution.

A good (albeit long) read about how weak republicans are able to compete...

https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/advantage-gop/

If this was the Olympics instead of politics, weak republicans would need a 40-meter head start to compete in the 100-meter dash.

Such weaklings ... very sad...
