No one is underestimating the Democrats, but lets not overestimate them either.
And OH. It could have been a lot worse. That’s always the case with midterms, barring rare elections such as those in 1934 and 2002.
RE: The midterm lose of the House was due to a combination of it being a midterm election and Democrat fraud. Trump added two Senators and we held the Governorships in FL. and GA.
1. RE: FRAUD: If the fraud was rampant in 2018 and the Dems got away with it, HOW MUCH MORE FOR 2020? WE SHOULD EXPECT MORE OF IT !!
2. RE: Mid term elections: Not sure what this has to do with anything. If there was overwhelming support for Trump’s policies, I would expect a huge Republican turnout to MAINTAIN Trump’s momentum in 2016 in the 2018 elections. That did not happen. At least we would not have seen a huge Congressional takeover of over 30 seats.
I’d understand a few seats, but this huge turnover? It shows energy on the Democrats’ side and lethargy on the Republican side.
3. RE: Governorships in FL. and GA.
Yes, squeakers both. Two red states should have been an easy win, which they were not. And Ted Cruz won by a squeaker in red Texas against the substance-less, extreme liberal, gun grabbing pipsqueak Beto O’Rourke. We are hanging by a thread in this country.
