The blame can be placed on the high number of GOP House retirements.
Unheard of for 45 GOP members of congress to retire.
Incumbents have a 98% chance of winning re-election.
45 retirements created 45 additional opportunities.
It is not because of a Blue Wave.
Very true .
The House Gop internsl rules set this up.
Nothing else .
That dickless chickenshit Paul Ryan owns this disaster.
This was intentional from the GOPe. The retiring House Republicans have been assured of cushy, high-paying jobs. They wanted to ensure President Trump gets neutered and things crash so they can step up and tell us how right they were and also tell us to come crawling back to them so they can resume their rule over the citizens of our country.
I think the biggest thing was the huge spending advantage the Democrats had in most of those races. I don’t know if it’s going to be any different in 2020.
