Vulnerable House Democrats Pondering Looming Potential Exits Threatens Nancy Pelosi’s Majority in Midterms

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s hopes of maintaining her slim majority are dwindling as droves of vulnerable far-left Democrats look to exit the House.

A growing list of vulnerable House Democrats who face major redistricting or tough reelections look to exit the House, potentially costing Pelosi her already very slim majority.

Rep. Charlie Crist (D-FL) is the latest Democrat to explore a House exit. Over the weekend, he announced he would have a “major announcement” in his hometown on Tuesday. Crist is rumored to be announcing another run for governor, thus leaving his House seat open. The Washington Post reported Crist making an attempt at the governorship will be his “sixth statewide bid for office in Florida, his second attempt as a Democrat for governor.”

Another blow to Pelosi’s hopes was the retirement of Rep. Cheri Bustos, who was a former Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee chairwoman and one of Pelosi’s top lieutenants. She announced last week she would not be seeking reelection.Illinois also lost a congressional seat after the Census, though the Democrat’s supermajority controls redistricting for the 2022 election.

Pennsylvania Democrats Conor Lamb and Chrissy Houlahan are both considering Senate bids in the open seat after Sen. Pat Toomey retires in 2022. This leaves Pelosi stuck trying to find suitable candidates to run in the shrinking amount of time.

The NRCC April battleground survey finds Pelosi the most unpopular politician in the country, with 56 percent unfavorable.

I’ll believe it when it happens. The cheating machine is still in place and most GOP’ers don’t seem to have the belly to fight it.

The only thing better than seeing that face always covered by a designer mask is not having to see that face ever again.

They don't scare me as much as the ones who refuse to acknowledge it exists!

What goes around comes around. Nancy will not be “leader” after the 2022 elections. She will be forced to retire. Look at who is vying to replace her as the jockeying will start soon.

Help.......

Every time I somehow make a double post that seems to be automatic.

What control produces that result?

This should be the opportunity to attack bold and strong and go full force in 2022 but I have zero faith in the GOP as constituted. Sure, we very well turn the slim majority to GOP in the House and simply lose ground in the Senate.

*** Crist is rumored to be announcing another run for governor, thus leaving his House seat open.***

God help Florida if Crist is elected to any position. He is the type of politician that I detest the most. He has messed most things up that he has touched, but it’s never enough for him.

Go away Charlie Crist.

Great day in the morning, what weird makeup around the eyes! Trying to offset the sunken orbs, I guess.

How can she be so unpopular? She’s the key person in trying to pass the Joe Biden agenda, and we are told that Joe’s extremely popular. A CNN poll showed that 85% of people approved of Joe’s recent speech. We are told the Democrat agenda is what the people want. Considering all of that how can Nancy be so uniquely unpopular??

DeSantis isn’t going to lose a gubernatorial election to anyone. His only exit would be a move to the White House.
