God told me that the GOP will keep control of both Houses.


PS - Sorry. I should've said "Spoiler Alert" before I posted this.

Then tell me why planes are full, restaurants and bars are full, try to go to a tourist area and they are overrun. People are buying new cars and paying 7% interest on mortgages.

You’re lying.


Amen brother. You have to wait an hour to get in the local Outback on most weekend nights. NOBODY drives a clunker anymore except the meth heads. Cattle ranchers are getting 3000 bucks for a weaned steer.

I'm still trying to figure out exactly what numbers that one dude wants.
Does he want someone to list the exact number of seats that will be lost?
. It's going to be a blue wave in state capitals and the house. The senate will pick up a few.
It all depends. If Jamie beats Letlow things could go really crazy.

Lol. Wtf. Goto any industrial plant, law office or bank and it’s a majority of young(er) white guys.

One thing I never see are young white dudes working at fast food spots or convenient stores

When you get out of this mindset you’ll be a lot happier in life.

They only need 218 for a majority in the house

I'll go ahead and make a prediction. I think they'll get 225 plus or minus 2 so in between 223 and 227

Would that be considered "crushing" the republicans? Considering that the republicans currently have the majority flipping it at all is a defeat for republicans.

If the dems take a simple majority in the senate with 51 seats and get 225 in the house, I would say that's a pretty substantial change of power.

You'll start hearing excuses like "this always happens in a second term" which misses the point that it could have been avoidable. If Trump had even modestly decent approval ratings and had the good sense to not start another conflict in the middle east the republicans would quite easily retain power and even had an opportunity to grow their majority. He fricked it up. Plain and simple.

So you have the majority of blue collar (plant workers) and white collar (law office; bank) hemmed up by “young(er) white guys,” ostensibly across the entire nation??

They probably make up a good portion of the higher paying jobs in those markets in both regions.

Obviously if you're in New Mexico or Texas you're going to have different demographics that will move those numbers.

The point is that it was just a bit of an overemphasized statement. In my view, anyway. That’s all.
