Don’t worry about it Joe. We have it covered. No pressure for you guys to be correct (although it would be novel.) Supermajority GOP Senate in 2018.

Indeed. We do not have to go right at all.
It is the left which has gone full blown cuckoo with open borders, bringing in refugees not checked, abortion up until the birth of the child,cutting the military, more global warming crap, and regulations, higher taxes.

Then with all that the left keeps losing, but they keep on the same message. Well don’t let me stop them. obama lost them the House, the Senate, and the White House, not forgetting Gov’s of states hundreds of state seats.

Who cares if we go too far right!

If the TRUMP economy is doing GREAT, everything will be OK!

Exception of coarse was the reelection of that Bozo in the white house.

I still think the 2012 election was rigged. Especially now that we know more details about what happened in 2016 (Detroit ballot mismatches, etc.).

his point may be that governing right when so many Americans are very very far left can lead to major problems. They will just shut down.

You answered your own question. If we had heeded their advice, Hillary Clinton would be the one being sworn in January 20. Jeb Bush is who they bestowed the honor of losing to her in the general election. In a past World, they would all have been hanged for the traitors that they are.

REPUBLICANS ARE GOING TO GET 60 SENATE SEATS IN 2018, if they do half of what Trump wants to achieve - which by the way is going what would be perceived as way right given how left this nation has become.

If Trump delivers and what he promises there is no way they will lose.

“There, I said it. Mark it Down. Write it.” That was Joe Scarborough on today’s Morning Joe predicting that Republicans will be “wiped out” in the 2018 elections if they govern as far right as the Trump cabinet selections suggest.

I think that the Trump cabinet selections suggest that he's hiring people that will run government departments according to their stated missions -- a Department of Energy that favors the production of energy, not stymie it, a NASA whose mission is aeronautics and space exploration, not Muslim outreach, a VA whose mission is to care for veterans, not kill them, etc. etc.

Advice from the one who was absolutely wrong the entire election. If Trump does the opposite of what Fake CNNews says he will be successful.

Merry Christmas

The reason the Left is wiped out today is because they went too far to the left over the last 8 years.

It’s just the pendulum of American Politics.

Look for increases in Republican majorities in both houses in 2018.

You got that right. Democrats are disappearing as we type.

2016 map exhibits the Republican Party expansion.
2014 map is Congressional results (when the Democrats got slaughtered).

2016 map was better than we could have ever imagined.

Down ticket was even better-----thirty-eight Repub governors.....
numerous legislators totally controlled by Republicans.

Is there any way to contact Morning Joe? If so, I would ask him to please elaborate about the dead woman in his office. If, in fact, one was found. I don’t know if that is true or not. However, I do recall reading bits and pieces of a dead woman being found in his office when he was a Congressman. Would you be able to enlighten me on that?
Thank you.

Democrats ponder the unthinkable: 60 GOP senate seats in 2018
Hot Air.com ^ | December 20, 2016 | JAZZ SHAW / FR Posted by Kaslin

So the Democrats are largely down in the dumps after yesterday’s Electoral College results. Not only did Trump get certified as the next POTUS, but Hillary Clinton actually lost ground in the total EC vote spread. But on the bright side, the worst is over, right? The bandage has been ripped off and the healing can begin. I mean… it can’t actually get any worse than this, can it?

Perhaps our liberal friends shouldn’t pick this week to quit sniffing glue because it’s just possible that it might. The battle for the midterms will be gearing up in earnest as soon as we sober up from the New Years parties and the writing on the wall looks pretty ugly.

It may seem unthinkable, but there is a possible path in front of us which could see the Dems winding up with so few seats in the Senate that they couldn’t even muster a filibuster. (Assuming we don’t nuke it next month.)

Stuart Rothenberg at the Washington Post describes just such a doomsday scenario for the regional party currently lurking in a handful of coastal cities. The GOP’s strong 2016 election showing raises a crucial question: Do Republicans have any chance of netting eight Senate seats – and a filibuster-proof majority – in 2018?

SNIP---rest on FR

Yeah, Joe, don’t keep the promises you made that got you elected. Do it the traditional GOPe way and act like you lost even though you won.

Yeah, I’m getting a big charge out of tweaking the counterculture because we have become it. My leftard friends are going absolutely bonkers and I’m providing therapy where I can.

Joke’s gonna be on them.

How do they get to keep their jobs after being so blatantly out of touch and wrong this year? Consequences? Not only that, but that are STILL making predictions? Go away!
