Wow, President Trump had amazing coat tails...and no coat.

It sure makes sense...NOT.

Factoids: No President in history has lost reelection and his party gain seats in the House of Representatives.

I was wondering if that had ever happened before. Are you SURE that is the case?

If they had got “beat badly” they would have lost the House.

GOP only needed 19 flips.

"It's been almost two weeks since Election Day, and Democrats still haven't won a *single one* of the 27 House races in @CookPolitical's Toss Up column."

That's an incredible stat -- especially when you consider that the Democratic presidential nominee [allegedly] won 306 electoral votes ...


Even more incredible, is the fact that this is being reported by CNN.

I just read that Bill Clinton beat George H.W. Bush in 1992, but the Republicans picked up nine House seats. The wildcard in 1992, of course, was that Clinton won with just 43% of the vote due to Ross Perot being in the race as an independent candidate. The sum of “conservative” votes for both Bush and Perot was 57%, so, in essence, the “conservative candidate” won and the House pickup was consistent.

There was no third party candidate in 2012 taking any appreciable number of votes, so it is almost 100% true that no President has lost while his party gained House seats.

The outright fraud in this election is just so damned obvious.

1892 and 1992: Harrison lost re-election to Cleveland and the GOP picked up seats in the House. Bush lost re-election to Clinton and the GOP picked up seats in the House.

That would be awesome news. The Rats can’t afford any illness or retirements.

One Louisiana Dem is going to be on Biden’s staff so that is one more gone.

"Democrats still haven't won a *single one* of the 27 House races in @CookPolitical's Toss Up column."

In a sane world, that would be Evidence #1 that they stole the White House. All the statistical analysis of vote timing, rural vs. urban, "found" votes, snap machine changes, "injected" votes, multiple "injections" of the exact same number of votes, down-ballot races vs. POTUS race, on and on and on. It all adds up to them stealing the WH. How can there be ANY doubt?

“Thank God you’re not involved with the fight for the White House”

And you, you’re here, exhorting people to “fight”. Keeping those positive vibes. That’s so amazing, how do you do it? Must be exhausting?

Makes the presidential results even more suspicious.

And by the way the media inserts their editorializing in every sentence it makes me even more suspicious that they need to rush this.

210 looks like the minimum...could be as high as 213 for Rs as well.

If its 222-213 (which is my guess) and Rs win both the GA seats, nearly doesn’t even matter if Trump wins to a large degree. If Trump does somehow win, Ds will likely pick up a large majority in congress in 2022 and the senate and not much good will happen. If Biden hangs on with the above scenario, the Rs likely take a large majority in the house, expand in the Senate and set themselves up well in 2024 (possibly for Trump again). Biden won’t get anything passed his entire term and with 6-3 Supreme court, nothing too crazy on E/Os either. Just hope Thomas stays thru 2024...

Indeed. All of these “non-partisan” groups - Cook, 538, etc are all Dem propogandists.

You're presuming the following:

1) Biden and his handlers don't rule by Executive Order. They will, regardless of what Congress does and the courts won't stop them.
2) We have free and fair elections in 2022, 2024 and beyond. Not gonna happen. We will not be able to vote out people who just executed a coup by election fraud.

I appreciate your optimism, but I don't share it.
