WASHINGTON -- Democrats are going to hold onto the House after November's midterm elections. They will pick up as many as four seats in the Senate, expanding their majority and overcoming internal dissent that has helped stifle their agenda.
As the challenges confronting President Joe Biden intensify, his predictions of a rosy political future for the Democratic Party are growing bolder. The assessments, delivered in speeches, fundraisers and conversations with friends and allies, seem at odds with a country that he acknowledged this week was “really, really down,” burdened by a pandemic, surging gas prices and spiking inflation.
Biden's hopeful outlook tracks with a sense of optimism that has coursed through his nearly five-decade career and was at the center of his 2020 presidential campaign, which he said was built around restoring the “soul of America.” In a lengthy Oval Office interview with The Associated Press on Thursday, Biden said part of his job as president is to “be confident.”
“Because I am confident," he said. “We are better positioned than any country in the world to own the second quarter of the 21st century. That’s not hyperbole. That’s a fact.”
While presidents often try to emphasize the positive, there is a risk in this moment that Biden contributes to a dissonance between Washington and people across the country who are confronting genuine and growing economic pain.

“Now it’s going to look like the Republicans won near midnight at the close of Election Day, but we call this the “Red Mirage” as ballots come in afterwards to be counted for as long as necessary to ensure that the democrat wins.”
Optimism? They spelt delusion wrong.
What else are they going to say? They are going to claim this no matter how bad the actual numbers are. Don’t give in so easily.
Doesn't even make sense.
aBS!!!!!
Cheating is the only way democrats win an election
ALL of which are his own doing. Why should he be "burdened with a pandemic"? Remember, he promised us he would use his magical powers to "shut down the virus."
“The fix is in.”
He just telegraphed it, or mailed it in. Whatever. Obama did it in 2012. Hillary did it in 2016, but it didn’t work out so well for her and the DNC did it in 2020.
Yep just like with the primary for LA Mayor..Caruso was leading by 4 points on election night..but a week later a crap load of mail in ballots poured in and guess what..now Bass is leading surprise surprise
Optimism by Biden is exactly the same as false reality. What he is doing is lying to the American people about what he has done, and has to pretend that he is optimistic, while in reality, he knows that he has destroyed what used to be a perfectly recovering economy.
And he knows the truth, which is that, he created the mess and the democrat-controlled media is helping him with the many lies and the many blame games.
Wasn’t there a song some 50-60 years ago called ‘the blame game’ (yeah, I know is was ‘the name game’)? Somebody should take that song and rework it to create the Biden blame game song.
Senile Joe told us that Obama had built the most extensive and inclusive vote fraud organization in American political history.
We saw it in action in November 2020.
What Biden optimism?
Is he hoping to have a twelve year old delivered to his basement hidey-hole?
Zuckerberg’s new project; https://www.electionexcellence.org/
$80 million over 5 years instead of the $350 million in 2020 but still, we know it will lean left in it’s efforts. Equipment upgrades, form design, website design etc for accepted jurisdictions. You apply and they decide if you’re a good fit.
Gonna teach every left leaning area to do the steal like Philly, Detroit etc.

They can probably get 2/3rds of both houses if they crank up the DOJ and intelligence community.
RNC = Russian National Committee, right?
... dissonance between Washington and people across the country who are confronting genuine and growing economic pain.This reporter did.not.get.the.memo.
There is no "growing economic pain." The country is experiencing unprecedented prosperity. Everybody who wants to work is working, job market is up, crime is down. Happy days are here again!

Funny, how the media doesn’t use the catch phrase, “without evidence”.
optimism=delusion
Reagan was an optimist and Biden and ABC attacked everything he did.
Now they drool over this decrepit old communist. Morons, hacks, and ideologues all.
