It’s one of the most controversial things to say on Capitol Hill, sparking looks of shock and disbelief: The House majority is in play this fall.

The Republican congress lost their own seats by betraying the people. They’re just looking for someone else to blame as usual.

Whatever happens in the presidential election, the House will remain GOP.

Senate is a toss up

Won’t bother the GOPe if it happens.

They’ve learned to eke out a comfortable living as the JV team of the Uniparty.

Ryan and Turtle Face are to blame. Incompetent RINO schmucks, IMO.
