--The president generally tends to lose the house in midterms (if he had it)
--We're in another seems-to-be forever war in Iran with no clear plan to get out, and no convincing explanation for why we got in.
--Despite having the House and the Senate, and everyone being well aware the Dems stuff ballots in every blue state and blue city, the GOP failed to pass desperately needed election reform.
--the stock market is good but the job market is bad. Most voters, and especially the sort of people who turned the election for Trump, depend more on the job market than the stock market
--Many Trump voters are Trump voters, not Republicans, and are unlikely to turn out for a midterm.

the main thing they have going for them is that the dems are very unlikeable and generally pretty incompetent. But it probably won't be enough.

Just say that each state's housem seats go to the party that won the state for the presidency. Then have a midterm--a chance to lose all those seats--2 years later. That would mean a president would at least start with control of the House. And no more redistricting bullshite.

Why is this a terrible idea?

Hopefully we'll get another photo op where social media grifters hold up big binders that say "lots of arrests" on them, and then nothing happens.

"Shut up and worship the golden calf, you stupid panicans."

If is so clear we needed to start a voluntary war in Iran, so obvious, so necessary, then why didn't Trump run and win the election on "let's invade Iran"?

Why did he instead run and win on "no more stupid and expensive foreign wars, let's focus on helping ordinary Americans?"

Why did this board support him for that reason? Why did the American people and most especially swing voters elect him for that reason?

You can say "but nukes," but a) that's different from saying we have obviously needed to go to war with Iran for decades, b) we were told, by the president, that we successfully had wiped out their nuclear facilities, and c) this current cluster of a "deal" doesn't seem either to take their enriched uranium or prevent them continuing their nuclear program. So we're going to be right back to "Iran could have a nuke at any moment" within months.

I literally thought this was a thread from 2 weeks ago that had been bumped to the top. But no, now we're triple-dog daring them.

Please check back in at the end of the day with a list of the arrests.

Yea.. it's like hiring an entire fire department and the fire department gets yelled at by the public for going to put out fires in buildings.

It's more like people are wondering why the fire department is going to put out fires for some other town in a different country for billions of dollars, when the fire was started by that other town preemptively and then got out of control. And after we've been told several times that the fire is already out and no fire could ever be more thoroughly out and that everything has gone according to plan fire-wise. And the town charter says that there has to be a formal declaration of fire before the fire department can be called out, but everyone just ignores that, even people who claim to be for strict enforcement of the town charter in other contexts.
