Which means the GOP needs to pick up another Senate seat because she is going to make damn sure that Trump's agenda is DOA.

And people still ask how and why Republicans aren’t simply sailing things right through Congress at will. Lolol

Not quite she will do her best to make sure the DNC is in control of the Senate this time. The rural GOP vote better turn out otherwise its going to get very ugly for Americans.

If, this is a big if, the independent voters have flipped on Trump and vote for the dems there won't be much of anything we can do no matter how strong our turnout is. That's the worst case scenario.

What could POTUS Trump offer the State of Alaska that the citizens would fall over backwards for but she would hate? She is a horrible human being.

I don’t think it’s that big of an “if”.


This place can be a bit of an echo chamber. The economy sucks for the average American right now and right or wrong Trump is the face of it. I think apathy has set in among many many people.


Hopefully people show up to vote, but I’m not optimistic.

The Republicans have done a poor job of saying “It’s going to take longer than two years to dig us out of fours years of the mess that was the Biden Administration.”

Its not just flipping on Trump but doing that and voting for the dem. They could always just sit it out because the dems are insane. That's still a really bad scenario for us though.

Has Alaska quietly turned into a blueish state?

It's very likely that they will have a Dem Governor and Senator next month and possibly another Dem Senator next round.

She should be banished from every committee, caucus, everything. If Thune had balls, she'd be mothballed. She can vote, collect a check, etc. But have zero influence.

But Thune probably loves her so it is what it is.

This is your Republican Party, folks. OOOOOOH YOU BETTER VOTE FOR THEM. OOOOOOH YOU BETTER VOTE FOR ALL OF EM.

From a voting perspective you're not wrong, but her number in the R column is critical to ensuring That Republicans hold control of the chamber.

You don't want a Democrat majority leader and majority democrat committees.

She has never been some hardcore, far right person. I don't know why everyone is shocked by this.
