That is the excuse the Dems will use when they lose bigly in 2022.

In political terms the next election is a century away.

Economic Discontent, Criticisms of Biden Lift the GOP to a Record Early Advantage
ABC News/Washington Compost ^ | 11/14/2021 | LangerResearch
Posted on 11/14/2021, 1:07:35 PM by TexasGurl24

Republican congressional candidates hold their largest lead in midterm election vote preferences in ABC News/Washington Post polls dating back 40 years, underscoring profound challenges for Democrats hoping to retain their slim majorities in Congress next year.

While a year is a lifetime in politics, the Democratic Party’s difficulties are deep; they include soaring economic discontent, a president who’s fallen 12 percentage points under water in job approval and a broad sense that the party is out of touch with the concerns of most Americans; 62 percent say so.

Thanks for taking the time to type out the ad hominem. 10 years ago I might have refuted your points. Unfortunately I just find the ad hominem tactic, well, terribly boring. So for the sake of furthering the discussion, let’s assume that you, who have never met me, are correct about my character.

So let’s get back to the issue at hand.

We already know how the GOP has led in the past when it has had power. So what gives us any logical reason to think that this time will be any different? What if anything should lead us to expect anything other than a repeat of Trent Lott or John Boehner?

The difference between now and years past is DonaldTrump. Not just endorsements, though they will be a net gain for those who get them. But the fact that Donald Trump showed the people that they could speak up, gave voice to their concerns, and supported the boldness that, eg, led to the Virginia school board rebellion and Dounkin victory. What the Tea Party promised, Donald Trump delivered— he put power in the hands of the people.

The only thing left to the democrats is violent repression. Wait for it after the Rittenhouse verdict.

The key will be replacing Democrat and RINO governors in Wisconsin, Michigan, Georgia, Arizona and Pennsylvania.

Then getting real election integrity laws with teeth passed in those states quickly.

"70-seat pickup"

My first impression was "that's a big truck". Then I read the article and was disappointed.

Bingo! Many of these people are ShareBlue trolls. Their only purpose is to depress conservative turnout.

They were throwing tantrums over the Virginia results and they see their buddies grip on power slipping.

Daddy Soros isn’t going to be happy with them.

Need to elect enough new conservative real republicans to not capture a paper GOP majority, but to replace all the GOP House/Senate leadership with real conservatives. There is already significant support for making Jim Jordan Speaker so that they could coalesce around him with enough votes. Much less clear who could do the same on the right. There may well be too many RINOs not up in ‘22 for a truly good Senate to be possible. But we need get enough for giant coat tails to drag them over the top in ‘24. Assuming we can manage an honest election then. And our new Speaker, ideally Jordan, needs to think long and hard about how to accomplish as much as possible while potentially having solid control of just the House. And how to sell that because the left will try to blame everything on him.

Let’s make the guy who wants President Trump personally sued for 1/6 Senate Majority Leader again. That will MAGA. No doubt.

Speaking of Democrats. Did you happen to see Romney at Biden’s Marxist infrastructure bill signing ceremony? I voted for Romney. Does that make me a Democrat? LOL.

HB- You make a very good point. I do think Donald Trump was a game-changer. I was an early fan of his from pretty much the escalator. I also think that the swamp flanked him and thoroughly sandbagged him. Is he even all that interested in the 2022 election?

Your posting history exposes the truth. There is nothing even remotely Conservative or Republican about you.

You are a standard issue leftist Democrat die hard Biden bot. I cannot imagine why you are still here crying about everything like this. The US Federal Government is now run by your dream team.

So take a bow. Take credit for the current Democrat Marxist Party Government you worked so hard all these years to elect

Well, I must admit that I voted for Rubio. He voted to confirm the stolen election and disenfranchised us all in 2020. I guess I’m outed as a Democrat there, too.

A lot of battles will be fought in the next year. Stop playing to hold onto a lead. Fight it out.
