Is this why the GOP still won 15 seats and came close to taking back the house? That they just shut the Dems out in an Austin special election? That Trump still came close in the swing states despite Covid lockdowns decimating the economy? Looking forward to Don Lemons reaction after the 2022 midterms

That's funny!

Remember in 2016 when Hilary Clinton "still came close in the swing states", but Donald Trump crowed about his landslide victory?

In midterms you are going to see a major wave of GOP wins. I'm a Biden voter and lifelong Dem, but I've had enough of the administrations "woke" rhetoric, with the final straw being after the Columbus fully justified police shooting Psaki referring to "police violence" and "systemic racism". I'm done.

If the GOP nut base that worships Trump would stop supporting crack pots, I'd be even more on board.

I think you proved their point.

A loss is a loss regardless of how close or how lopsided the results were.

No, I don't. I do remember the part about Hillary coming close, however.

Yeah, I remember some saying that.

If you look up my posting history, I stated that Donald Trump had a chance if he motivated the white working class male vote. And the statistics from the 2016 show that he did exactly that.

Remember when Hillary won the popular vote? See how that works?

That is a fault within both parties. The extreme wings of both parties have become more numerous and more vocal to the point where Republicans think Democrats are in favor of a dystopian welfare state, and Democrats think Republicans want a evangelical, fascist nation.

Of course, this particular forum notwithstanding, nothing could be further from the truth.
