PBS NEWSHOUR: Syndicated columnist Mark Shields and New York Times columnist David Brooks join Judy Woodruff to discuss the weeks news, .....
DAVID BROOKS: I think the Republicans are going to do very bad in the midterm, but not because of the tax bill...
So you can vote on a lot of things. In general, when you run up big deficits and give away back money to people, they like it. And people like me say, hey, you should worry about the deficits or you should worry about the distribution effects. .......
JUDY WOODRUFF: Well, you brought up the midterm elections. And thats what I want to ask you about.
But, David, your point is that this tax bill is not going to affect Republicans in the midterm that much, whatever
DAVID BROOKS: Who knows? The midterms are still a year away.
I think the reason people dont like the Republican Party is not because of the tax cut. Its because they dont like Donald Trump, they dont think theyre functional, for a zillion other reasons. .......
I think theyre in terrible shape..... Theres the thing called the generic ballot. Which party do you want to control, which party do you think usually, if one party is plus nine, theyre like due for a tidal wave of support. And the Democrats are plus 13 or 14. Thats just massive.
Now, were a year away, ....... it looks like a tidal wave election. If it was today, it would be a tidal wave election, and it looks the kind of elections where Democrats wouldnt only carry swing states, like maybe even Arizona, something like that, but states where you dont even imagine.

He writes like he might have Aids that has crossed over his blood brain barrier.
Both are in the minority opinion. They're both "conservative" enough to be liberal and democRAT.
But then I repeat myself.
Message for David Brooks, friends, neighbors and relatives are all more enthused to see Trump re-elected than they were when they first voted for him. David, you are delusional. Far too much MSM news has misled you. You have three years to research Uranium One and the Hillary, Obama, Mueller, and Comey connection to it. As for us (lots of us), Trump is truly making America Great Again. He’s already done extraordinary things for America and we, the people, are thankful for him.
David Brooks in the Twilight Zone.
David Brooks is taking the strongest acid in human history. His alternative reality drug trip has been going on for almost 13 months now.
Hey, they gotta get through the next 11 months believing in something.
No, Brooks, people LOVE Donald Trump, but you can’t see that because of your GOPe blinders.
David Brooks, you are a pathetic a**hole....you always were, and you will always be one.
“Yes, David Brooks has his finger on the pulse of...”

The only place David Brooks has his finger is up his a**.
This moralizing faux conservative abdicated his right to pontificate bigly when he dumped his wife of 28 years.
This is 56-year old David Brooks..she is NOT his daughter, that's his former research assistant/new 33-year old wife.
I believe that the democrats are ramping up there best tool for winning elections. Vote Fraud. They plan it out way ahead of time.
David Brooks, he’s a conservative and very smart. ;-)
Aye Aye Captain. Winning Steady as she goes.
When I was in junior high school, which was a LONG time ago, a kid would taunt another kid by saying, “You think you’re hot $hit, but you’re really cold diarrhea.”
This saying is fitting for Brooks.
Not this Trump voter. Hes doing exactly what I voted for him to do disrupt the system.
Who, or better yet, what voters does this guy sway?
Is it that they are so stupid? Do they believe a majority of Americans care what the media thinks?
President Trump is still president so hmmm ... he has an awesome week of triumph and they all announce things are dire.
The Russian Collusion Mueller fiasco of an investigation is collapsing and Brooks thinks impersonating Baghdad Bob makes him relevant, cutting edge, insightful?
These people who are the so called media are nothing more than deranged lunatics with president Donald Trump living in their heads rent free shouting into an echo chamber - its truly Amazing.
David Brooks: It Is Accepted “Fact” That Trump Will Lose; (Presidential Election)
David Brooks: People Will Be Sick Of Trump And Vote For Hillary, “She Will be Competent And Normal”
Well no one is disappointed in President Trump. However, we are very disappointed in Congress. The danger is people might fail to vote the those sad sack republicans and democrats might get back in.
-
Well, those Congress creatures SOMEWHAT redeemed themselves by at least voting for the tax bill, and making what seemed to be sincere statements of praise for Trump after they did so.
Who I’M really disappointed in is Jeff Sessions, for seemingly doing NOTHING for an entire year to bring some unbelievably corrupt people to justice, and redeeming people’s lost faith in the justice system.
