And he wins re-election in 2012?

Can we be sure the midterms are always a reflection of the president.

94 and 96 Clinton also

A huge midterms doesn't guarantee the Presidential cycle.

Voters are extremely fickle, as tonight proves.

100% these midterms are a reflection of people tired of Trump acting like Trump.

fricking tariffs were asinine.

I don’t have a problem with what he’s done since he’s been in Iran, the problem is that he WENT to Iran.

He’s doesn’t do these two things and Republicans keep the House and Senate in a landslide.

Obama was never as unpopular and hated as Trump. He also wasnt a lame duck

Democrats never attempted to break away from O like Republicans did in 2016. 2020 (and now 2028)

This doesn’t happen 99% of the time using historical standards.

I think people are including many of their own biases and emotions this.

BECAUSE it was damn time a president DID!

You want those radicals to keep supporting terror cells and having a nuclear weapon? What is up with some of these posters?

While he was in office, a historic amount of seats were flipped to the GOP. His approval rating was in the 40’s. They thought there was no way someone performing so poorly could win in 2012…until he did….

The economy is the one thing Trump has not done a good job with this term, and those tariffs and Iran are exactly what has kept it stagnant.

That’s not emotion, but I will say the coping a lot of you are doing is emotional, and that’s problematic. If you can’t own what the Republicans and Trump fricked up these last two years, you won’t have a clear eye on ‘28.

Republicans had better soul search and start to put Trump in the background.

Bush Sr was the last candidate to win the presidency from the incumbent party who wasn't the sitting President.

Democrats will steamroll in 2028. I guess the electorate in this country really does want socialism and Marxism.

And you think this has stopped that?

Hezbollah has been gutted thanks to Israel, but now Trump is going to pull the $4 billion annually from them.

I must have missed where the Houthis have stopped bombing the Middle East for Iran.

So unless you’re occupying the Strait and keeping troops there forever, zero has changed.

I’m just having a hard time understanding how you’re so sure Trump could keep both chambers of congress so easily when the sitting president doesn’t retain them 70% of the time in the last 50 years.

It seems more like ignorance and bias.

Unfortunately, history also suggests that it will be very hard for any Republican to keep the presidency in 2028.

We bombed the living shite out of their nuclear weapon development, and are continuing to keep their economic faucets turned off, we've definitely dealt damage.

We're definitely not sending them pallets of cash on airplanes as a token of appreciation.

And it sounds like you have your head stuck in stats and not what is actually happening right now. Stop trying to make yourself feel better by saying this was bound to happen no matter what. Especially not like this. This is a bloodbath, and it’s not just because.
