Perhaps the data nerds will note that only 12% of registered Republicans turned out to vote.
Self-inflicted.

Self Inflicted BY THE GOP-E though. We have people like Graham, Flake etc attacking POTUS and others working within the party to protect the establishment and Clinton with this Russian collusion dossier, and to work against the POTUS on policy.
Why WOULD we vote for these jackasses?
Yeah but look at Alabama. Moore wasn’t a GOPe jackass. He was a solid pro-Trump conservative. Granted he was tarnished by the last minute smears but I have a feeling that even those who were squeamish about him would have come out and voted for him if they thought the risk of the Democrat getting elected were real. I think there is a grave lack of awareness of risk on our side right now, at least in the normally safely red areas. I almost wonder if the less overwhelmingly red areas might not be safer because they’re more on guard.
