And ... This is why the "red wave" never happened.

Exhibit #2 on why the GOP's "red wave" didn't materialize.

Bingo. People are tired of all the whining and crying and blaming and finger pointing. It was entertaining at first, but now it's just tiresome.

Bah hahahahahahaha! So wait a minute ... I thought the GOP line is that people get more conservative as they age. "[T]hose 1960s hippies" are in their 60s and 70s now. Make up your mind.

The GOP establishement flat hated Trump's guts and were thrilled to see him gone. Why would they lift a finger to help prove the 2020 steal and let Trump have another 4 years?
Always someone else's fault in Trump World, isn't it?

Every state has different procedures for mail voting. Mine does not mail ballots to every voter; ballots must be requested via mail or online.

Wait a minute ... "racist white liberal Elite's" are living in "squalor & fear"? How do you figure that?

Mail in ballots have been around for 200 years. Thankfully, those are the rules and will stay the rules. Just because someone doesn't like the results doesn't mean they're illegitimate.

Pubs also control most state legislative seats.

Pubs took near total control of FLA, so I see that as another huge win. I'm so glad I don't have to live in a Blue State, & I feel bad for any Pubs that do.

Now, the Libs do control nearly all of America's trashed out major cities where Tens of Millions live in squalor & fear, but I'm happy to concede those killing fields to the racist white liberal Elite's.

From my perspective, the Pubs are doing just fine, & I hope they'll do even better in 2024.
A president with popularity in the 40% range coupled with 8% inflation and they lost the senate and quite possible the house. That is a massive failure on any scale by the republicans, they should have easily taken back congress but I guess there is always some place to find dome good news.

Keep on doing the same thing for 2 more years supporting conspiracy theories and a failed ex-president and there is no hope for 2024.

Um, if your argument is that a company would pass a tax burden on to you, then you indeed are made at the company. time and time again, we are shown that most companies would never pass on tax burdens to their customers, they would rather cut costs.

Republicans took the House and are up some 6,000,000 votes over Democrats this year with DeSantes in the on-deck circle.


Still haven't heard who might be running on the Dem side...giggles maybe?

This Red Wave was right there for the taking. But no, the candidates had to go down the "stolen election" road and it cost them the Senate. And if they don't lose the House they sure didn't obtain the seats expected.

This was a colossal failure for the GOP and they have Trump to blame. Voters have shown that they have rejected The Big Lie and those who promote it. So as a liberal I hope they continue down this road to defeat.

Supposedly 40 percent of our population is openly socialist. The youth are socialists by a large margin. In the near future we will see one of two possibilities, either we become a full socialist state like Venezuela or the nation breaks up or socialism is prevented by a revolution.

Either way democracy is done for.

We don't protest. Dems are mean, vicious, constantly lie and cheat. They are the biggest hypocrites, spin their narrative. They have tech, FBI, justice dept, msm, etc on their side. After the way this country is in horrible shape and they still win there is absolutely no way the repubs will ever win again..We are too nice and we just don't have that evil in us that the Dems have.

So repubs, buckle up and enjoy no more freedom and nothing but dictatorship. Why care or even think about Trump or Desantis because neither can win on 2024. The left have taken over and I agree that we're going to have to accept it. No more make America great again hopes. From here on out it's all about taking our freedoms away and destroying America and the worst has yet to come. Evil has prevailed.
If January 6th wasn't a protest what was it?

What freedoms were you denied this week?

Just give me one?

AGAIN. FALSE.

The government created the tax burden in the first place. In ALL scenarios, CONSUMERS PAY. You get a lesser product for the same price - that's a price hike. You pay more for the same product - that's a price hike. You get a lesser raise because your raise is going to the government. That's a price hike. End of Story.

ALL TAXES, ON WHICHEVER PARTIES IMPOSED, REDUCE CONSUMERS' PURCHASING POWER. END OF STORY.
