Democrats Looking At Midterm Troubles

[Moderate Right]

First, we've got Kamala Harris's book coming out blasting every democrat she can and now we've got the Clinton News Network's very own Harry Enten showing the facts in the link below. The minority party historically gains many seats in the midterms and yet not even most democrats are predicting any waves happening. The Cook Political Report also isn't predicting any waves and favors Republicans. Add to this, most experts understand that Republicans are able to gerrymander more seats than the democrats can, mostly because democrats have already gerrymandered about as much as they could. For icing on the cake, the Charlie Kirk movement is getting bigger after his political assassination.

The dems only need to pick up like 5 seats to switch control of the House. They can do that even if there is no wave of support for them in 2026

Excellent trolling post.

You are either lost or have no clue what trolling is. Or both

Yes they can and no they can't. Right now the Cook Political Report and CNN show that it is more likely than not that Republicans will retain control of the House. I wouldn't make any large bets on it either way but that is the point of this thread. While democrats should, historically, score big in the midterms, not even they think that is going to happen this time around, which is not good for the democrat party. They are suffering from a very huge identity crisis.

Are you admitting you are a fact denier?

Here's a little hope for them.

Pessimism about the direction of the country is growing among Republicans - AP-NORC

Forty-nine percent of Republicans say things in the United States are heading the right direction down from 75% in June.

Why does every MAGA consider CNN Fake News until one analyst has some negative news about dems?

I need to ask ex-President Hillary Clinton about polls and shit.

Is the election in 1 month or in 13 months? So much can happen. 13 months is a lifetime in politics.

Not worried.

LOL. That is actually a great question. Why does everyone on the left say that Trump lies about everything but then when Trump says something the left think they can use against Trump, all of a sudden they think Trump spoke the truth and wasn't lying?

We'll see what happens, Trump is really driving down his favorability and with the economy starting to sour and prices shooting up, MAGA might find that they're the ones with troubles.

But Democrats do often **** up easy wins, so there's that.

 

[Gatsby]

Dems only need to pick up 3 House seats for a majority. The last time the out-party failed to gain at least 3 seats in a midterm election was 2002.

I like the Dems' chances of winning back the House.

 

[Moderate Right]

I need to ask ex-President Hillary Clinton about polls and shit.

LOL. While you're at it you could also ask Kamala Harris. The answer to your question though is that Trump underpolls, he doesn't overpoll. That's what you guys don't understand and I love that about you.

Not worried.

I'll take that as an admission that right now you admit I'm right.

Because facts and lies can be verified?

Actually, he's not driving down his favorablity at all. That is fake news propanda from the left. Every week for I don't know how long we get a new headline about how Trump's favorability has sunk to a new low. If those headlines were actually accurate, Trump would have a 0% popularlity by now. The truth is, he is about where he always has been, in other words, no new lows. Just more lies from the left.

What the heck are you talking about? This isn't even up for debate anymore. Trump lies more than any politician in our history. Not even close.

Abstract​

“Truth” aims to explain why Donald Trump lies more than any other public official in the United States today, and why his supporters, nonetheless, put up with his lies. The chapter combs the biographical record to highlight some of the most egregious examples of Trump’s untruths and then considers reasons behind Trump’s remarkable penchant for lying. For Trump, truth is effectively whatever it takes to win the moment, moment by moment, battle by battle—as the episodic man, shorn of any long-term story to make sense of his life, struggles to win the moment. Among the many reasons that Trump’s supporters excuse his lying is that they, like Trump himself, do not really hold him to the standards that human persons are held to. And that is because many of his supporters, like Trump himself, do not consider him to be a person—he is more like a primal force or superhero, more than a person, but less than a person, too.

That's a good one

Democrats really should win big in the midterms. People are dissatisfied with the economy, and typically the party who hold the presidency loses seats.

On the other hand, they're in a leadership crisis. They don't have smart people doing smart things. They've forgotton what it is that wins elections. No amount of bashing Trump is going to help them when the electorate doesn't view them as a viable alternative.

The solution really is to ditch the far left progressive bs and focus on what people actually care about (i.e. move to the center and focus on kitchen table issues) but all indications thus far are that they want to double down on stupid.

 

[CaughtInThe]

You just punked yourself.
