The party in power always loses the midterms. However the lefts hard turn far left will mitigate the damages.

What types of challenges and obstacles might those folks you mentioned there have to deal with now that they didn’t have to deal with then, at least certainly nowhere near the extent to which we see today? And would the aforementioned “new” challenges and obstacles prevalent today have ultimately resulted in different actions on their part and thus a different historical view of them??




Imagine coping this hard in order to protect Trump

Which is objectively accurate. It’s just not a great strategy for winning contested elections among a populace that really doesn’t understand economics, foreign policy, or law.

They wasted it on purpose. The core of the Republican leadership is against their voters interests.


Exactly this. The senate gop leadership thinks the rino way is the way to go. They believe they are smarter than the American populace that put Trump back in the presidency as well as they think conservatives will come around and see they are correct. All the while they lose races, lose support, piss off their base and do nothing that goes against their own agenda.

This is why they haven’t allowed recess appointments. They’ve been actively against what the conservatives wanted.

Now we get a choice, vote out leadership and try to keep the right in power, or let the insane asylum take over. There is only one choice and it’s not democrats. Yet the rinos are that bitter and petty about their own political power.

Ole Beefense. Ever afraid to address me directly, certainly not on anything of substance, thus the continual passive aggressive nonsense.

Imagine projecting your obsession and melodrama onto me. I’m not sure we’ve ever even had much discourse here. Certainly no history of ongoing friction. What’s with the seemingly random strong feelings towards me??

All the demorats will do is hold endless hearings. No legislation will get passed. So legislatively no difference regardless of which party holds the majority. Hearings really no difference either. Demorats will rail against republicans, republicans will praise their witnesses. Rinse and repeat.

Except in the Senate when they start blocking your appointments.

Also, about those hearings .

Go ask the Republicans from the 90's and 2000's what is was like when Dingell and Waxman held hearings. It got ugly.

The people running the country right now very clearly don’t understand any of these things, either.

People tend to respond to shite like that in elections.

There's an orange turd in our soup and our customers are no longer buying it

We need to do anything we can to distract them from the orange turd so they will buy our soup.

The only thing we can't do is get rid of the turd.
