What’s the historical midterm trends?

So glad you asked:

The Democratic Party’s gain of 41 seats (the final certified number) in the 2018 midterm elections was a significant shift, representing their largest gain in the House of Representatives since the post-Watergate election of 1974.

On average, the President's party loses about 25 to 30 seats in the House in a midterm election. The 41-seat loss for the Republican party was significantly higher than the historical average, categorizing it as a "wave election."

The most striking historical deviation in 2018 was the turnout. Midterms usually see a massive drop-off in participation compared to Presidential years. However, 2018 saw a turnout of approximately 49.4%, the highest for a midterm election in over a century. For comparison, the average midterm turnout in the preceding decades usually hovered around 40%.

This dude always talking about the stock market, while most Americans cant afford gas and groceries. So out of touch. We dont understand Trump. We want what you promised us. Affordability.

If you cant afford gas and groceries, it’s no one's fault but your own. America is the land of opportunity and if you have a work ethic, there are no limits to what you can achieve. We are lazy and the excessive indulgent items that Americans have available to them is embarrassing.

Broham, some folks do think in terms beyond just their own life. They’ll think of things (and people) other than themselves, believe it or not. They sometimes tend to think of, for example, the safety and wellbeing of their children and grandchildren, and so on. I’m just sayin…

Like raising the debt 8 Trillion Dollars and passing it on to the following generations?

You don't have to be a panican

Well at least he finally admitted it.

Iran was days away from a nuke even though we allegedly destroyed their nuclear capability in 2025

If you’re thinking about it in the most simplistic way possible, then yes, that makes sense just as you have it there.

The most important thing by far — including whether our stock market, which, by the way, is at an all-time high — but including whether our stock market goes up or down a little bit, the most important thing by far is Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon,” he said, adding, “Every American understands.”

How’s this a bad thing?

The overriding point is that it's true.

So no one actually had any grounds to complain about the price of gas in 2022 either, right?

I mean, since it's no one's fault but your own if you can't afford gas.
