A 100-seat gain? In my dreams, but in my thoughts, we’ll be lucky to hold the majority because so many people vote Democrat NO MATTER WHAT.
We would be lucky to pick up one more seat.
The seats are mostly gerrymandered.
We may be up 5 in Texas. But then we'll lose 5 in California.
So we'll pick up a seat somewhere else.
But there's a possible that we will lose our majority in the House because we know that the Democrats are angry so they'll show up and vote no matter what.
The midterm elections in a president's second term historically are the biggest losses for his party. If we can buck that trend and just hold the House and Senate, I'd be thrilled.
And if that is what a Republican opposition was doing, you'd say they're all talk, no action, and not accomplishing anything. All of which can be said about Congressional Democrats.
Republicans have a small margin in the Senate and an even smaller proportionate margin in the house. I honestly think Trump has done very well to get the things he's gotten. He has much smaller margins than he did at the beginning of his first term, and has managed to get things like border security that simply went nowhere before.
100 seats? No.
When its very close, they have to run on issues, plus money.
Democrats are losing on both fronts.
Stop mail in ballots and they will win.
Paul Ryan refused to work with him.
Considering Trump won ninety per cent of the counties, an electoral landslide and the popular vote and the House ONLY picked came out with a five seat majority, I’d say a 10 seat majority would be good.
All politics is local.
And namby-pambys seem to be the only candidates the Republican wing of the uniparty can get to put their hat in the ring.
Trump is just doing his thing and jerking their chain by saying that. I would be ecstatic with 218-217, anything to keep Hakeem Skyhook from getting the gavel.
Doesn’t matter as long as the Republicans don’t field quality candidates that reflect the wishes of the base.
It’s hard to convince people on our side to step into the arena.
It really would be. I definitely don’t want the democrats to have day in day out investigations on everything. We must keep majority!
All politics is still local.
And it seems our side isn’t motivated to vote unless Trump is on the ballot.
100 seats? Unlikely, but I’ll settle for 50.
“All politics is still local.”
Like very high serious crime/murder rates in Democrats run cities and President Trump bringing serious crime/murders come crushing down in DC when he took over tackling crime in DC?
The real need is the Senate.
Misleading because land cannot vote.
And the results are known that evening.
The California map was made by the Legislature. That is illegal as the commission alone has the power. They put the cart before the horse. Don’t think it will happen....but we’ll see.
