Yes they did horrible polling in 2016, but they have been spot on in 2017-2018 with proof of the 40 seats we have lost thus far. Big ones included. When you lose a Senate and House seat, you know something is wrong. Republicans better wake up and start taking this serious or we will lose the 1,000 seats we gained from 2008-2016.
Exactly. I keep pointing it out that we have lost 40 seats. Now, I don’t count the Governor’s race in Virginia because Trump lost Virginia. I also don’t count Alabama because of the unique situation with Roy Moore. Strange would have won Alabama, and Trump was right to endorse him. However, we just lost a deep red seat. We have lost some seats that are deep red in those 40 seats. You look at the vote shift on the NY Times map from this election, nearly every area vote shifted to blue. Granted, this was a unique candidate, but we still should have won. To keep rationalizing these away is stupid. Yeah, it’s NBC, but we have proof from the special elections that this can be so. We have to find out what is going on. Are they mad at Trump? Mad at the Congress? Switching? Not motivated? The RNC needs to send out surveys.
Ryan and McConnell need to go. I don’t understand why they are the leaders. No Obamacare repeal, government is growing, and there is wall or immigration reform.
