The RAID just RE-ELECTED Trump, and lost the House BIGLY for Dems.

Now (R's) just need to go recapture the Senate baws.

What good would it do. The Republicans are like trying to get 20 different tribes to agree.
They all think they're the next great political genius and act independent. They aren't heel to toe like the Dems.
Its unfortunate but its part of our collective value system as Republicans. They don't go along to get along for just anything.

Are you still so naive that you think real, actual votes matter??

FIFY
They are dragging their arse on this. Another “let us see it play out” moment.
The republicans are like a football team that’s down 4 with 1:00 to go and the defense gets an int at the 50. Then the coach proceeds to call draw plays 4 straight times.
Every single time they can have the Dems on their heels due to a miscalculation.. they play it safe and just hope the public sympathizes.
Meanwhile.. when the Dems get that same int at the 50, they have Brady at QB, Jerry rice, Randy Moss, and Terrell owens at WR, Walter Peyton at RB, and Jason Whitten at TE. And they freaking bomb it out.

There's still a lot of time between now and Election Day, not to mention 2024.
I think the House is as much a given as anything can be in politics this far out. Inflation will continue to be well over 5% by then and while gas prices are dropping I don't see fuel prices for energy dropping (which are primarily gas and coal). If energy bills are still sky-high, that not only continues to give Democrats an uphill battle in November, it gives them a bit of a double whammy by making their push of increased EV ownership that much more expensive.
The Senate is a toss-up because so few vulnerable Democrat-held seats are up for grabs. It's possible the Senate might flip, but it would be only by a vote or two (no large majority) and then you still have to worry about RINOs.
Time will tell of how this raid and whatever else the J6 committee dreams up, but even looking at the network news it seems their actions are blindly committing self-inflicted wounds on their party. This is where the old Napoleon axiom comes into play:

If the raid finds evidence of any document destruction, tampering or other federal crime, then trump could be disqualified from ever holding national office again.

Nahhh. No reasonable prosecutor………
And you have awesome programming retention. You just typed it out exactly like the leftist programming has said it over and over.
Oh you forgot to add “The experts said it’s not a raid.” You may need to edit.

You misspelled "have Jefferson run the option".
Yeah, it still hurts.

If the republicans cleverly market the totalitarian state of mind in democrats, yes it could re-elect DJT.

Trump had the house a senate two years during his first term...
They fricked him the entire time.
On my voter card my party affiliate says AMERICAN.
They are not our friends. They are a ruling class.
I was leaning DeSantis this next term but after this bullshjt raid for files he turned over in January and he met these people in June over this and they still raid him.
I want him to burn it all the way to th ground.
Close the IRS.
Close the dept of non education.
Close the FBI
Audit the fed
Wall the border.

Omg.
You just described the coaching philosophy of the second highest paid coach in the Big 10. James Franklin of Penn State, who is one win over 0.500 since coming from Vanderbilt.
Vanderbilt, please take him back.
Now back to politics, McConnell doesn’t want the majority. He likes Biden and China. He loves being minority leader.

Yup
Republicans are made up of a lot more independent and self made types. They don’t go with the group just because everyone else is doing it.
