Before the end of November, Trump needs to get all the Republicans (including incoming) together and hammer home that they have essentially 14-15 months to prove to the American people they can get shite done and that they can't get bogged down in a bunch of bullshite investigations. He should tell them they can save that shite for 2022, but it's time to get to work.

I'm pretty much on the side with libertarians these days and I've only voted red in my entire life but I'll be honest, I would rather have the White House and Senate and let the D's have a small minority in the House. The last time we (Red) held all three during Bush they spent like drunken sailors so I don't mind a little partisan politics to hold up spending bills. The Senate majority allows for bigger picture voting like SCOTUS and obviously I want a red president (or orange) for policy.

So...at least 2 more years of more investigations and impeachment bullshite then?

2 more years of Pelosi, Schiff, and Nadler?

Really?

He has a point about gridlock being the only thing that stays the hand of improvident politicians.

Dems keeping the House will only lead to more spending by Trump as he tries to make deals. Wouldn't it preferable that he make deals with a more conservative House?

Would love GOP to take the House back with 218+ MAGA representatives, but I don't think it's gonna happen. Too many Karens in suburban districts.

Trump will win
GOP keeps Senate, maybe gain a seat or 2


No way they take the House. They may gain a few seats but the way the districts are drawn make it near impossible to take the house outright.

What would be most excellent is if the Republicans could get 2/3 majority in the House, then they could expel Pelosi, Schiff, and Nadler.

That is as possible as the antithesis. Huge stakes this go around.

As am I.
But Dems now represent such an existential threat to libertarianism and our republic that, without a huge unexpected setback, we are headed down a road of no return. I will be voting for that setback.

The filibuster will maintain that. As we saw with the impeachment hoax, a Democrat House will not.

Won't happen, they'll probably lose a spot or two

Won't happen, too much ground to make up in one cycle.

I don’t mind this because we all know the D’s are hunting with an empty gun - and while they are doing all of these BS investigations they aren’t working on massive spending bills.

I mean I won’t complain if reds take the house obviously but I just don’t trust either party with an open checkbook and no one to stop it.

Gotta disagree here. You have to defeat them now. This is a war we’re in and we cannot cede any ground. Take control and implement Trump’s agenda. Simple as that. The left will kick and scream no matter what we do so screw them.
