Even Leftists admit forty-fifth President Donald Trump’s handling of the Republican Party has been impressive.
Host and founder of progressive news outlet “The Young Turks” and open opponent of forty-fifth President Donald Trump, Cenk Uygur, admitted in a video on Sunday that Trump’s Republican Party will “almost definitely” crush Democrats in the upcoming 2020 midterm election after reacting to a recent poll from the New York Times.
49 percent of likely voters said they plan to vote for a Republican in the upcoming Nov. 8 election, while 45 percent said they plan to vote for a Democrat, according to the New York Times/Siena poll.
This comes after a September poll had the Democrats beating Republicans by one-point.
“What really gets the voters out to the polls is the economy. What’s going on with their pocket books? What’s going on with their bank accounts? What’s going on with gas prices and inflation? And I don’t think the Democrats have done a good enough job disproving that Republicans would be better for the economy,” far-left co-host Ana Kasparian said.
“Yeah. It’s almost all over now,” Uygur admitted.
“So I was interviewed by Fox News five days ago… it hasn’t come out yet. And when they asked me, ‘Who do you think is going to win the House,’ I said, ‘I don’t know. You need more data.’ Well more data has come in. Now the elections are only two weeks out,” he added.
“Democrats used to have a one point lead. Now they have a four-point deficit. So a five point swing at the national level is devastating,” he continued.
“Because we’re not talking about a local race or even a state race where you could have more wild swings. At a national level, those swings get ironed out because there’s a lot more people,” he said.
“And so the numbers become a little bit more reliable. The districts are deeply gerrymandered, but still a five-point swing near the election will make a giant difference in anything that’s close to a swing district,” he added.
“The Democrats are almost definitely going to lose the House now,” he said.
“What could rescue the Democrats?” he asked.
“Well what could rescue them is an all out assault in the last two weeks on the Republicans on the issue of the economy. Will the Democrats do that? No. There’s no chance that they’ll do that. So that’s why we’re pretty much doomed. They’ve barely mentioned the economy at all. Why? Two reasons… One, they’re not very bright,” he said.
“I say they’re not bright in this context because if forty-four percent of the voters say that the economy is the number one issue and that issue wins by a landslide, abortion coming in at seven percent, you would think that you would want to talk about the economy in your ads. And they’re running almost no ads on the economy,” he continued.
Has anything been done about the voter fraud?? If not, why do we expect different results this time?
I remember the confidence about a Trump win in 2020.
Biden speaking now. His administration is cutting out all unbidden fees by private companies. He feels your pain now. And when you leave that resort you won’t be charged a hidden fee. And he mumbles out all he has done to help the peoples.
“Well what could rescue them is an all out assault in the last two weeks on the Republicans on the issue of the economy. Will the Democrats do that? .... They’ve barely mentioned the economy at all.”
Cenk is not a smart man. His “strategy” won’t work because the Democrats bringing up the economy will only remind voters that it was the Democrats who destroyed the economy, not the Republicans.
He's lying. He knows they never had that lead to begin with.
It was a fake lead manufactured by polling companies to depress Republicans and keep them home on Election Day. That is one thing that never changes. Rush used to hammer that point all the time and, this season, even Victor Davis Hanson is saying it.
It always happens that, as we near election day, the races "tighten" so the pollsters don't get caught saying "Dems are ahead by five points" on election eve. If they did that and got clobbered, they would love future polling jobs.
You can set your calendar by the races "tightening."
Dems won’t discuss the economy, but not because they are stupid.
Their entire policy framework assumes that they can continue to leech off of a prosperous economy. When the economy stumbles, they can’t offer free stuff, nor can they make their usual promises of soaking the rich and slamming corporations.
They are left as speechless as Josh Fetterman.
My first thought 🤣🤣🤣
Chunk Yogurt!
There’s an election night party out my way. I’d rather go home and enjoy the “news. . .”
The compilations that come out over the next few days are my favorites.
the hill is an ANTI=TRump, anti-conservative RINO establishment rag!
True the Vote and the Election Integrity Project have made massive efforts. Several court cases have been won, as well. Where you bin?
Please sign up with a group above and be a poll watcher, election observer, poll worker, or drop box watcher.
Can’t run ads on the economy because everyone knows you wrecked it…
Last thing Dems want is voters more focused on the economy than they already are.
“in the upcoming 2020 midterm election.” I was not aware that the upcoming midterm election was in the year 2020. I must have missed something.
ReEEeeE Ree ReeEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
When Chunk is unhappy, I am happy. He is one miserable SOB.
I’m not all that fond of Republicans. Most are crooked. But I utterly detest ALL DemocRATS because ALL are crooked.
Two factoids.
1) Every few months I watch the 2016 video of TYT. Warms my heart every time. They actually quote something stating Billary has 90% chance to win.
2) A few years ago TYT were actually begging for donations. So few advertisers and donors were still interested that they had to beg for their salary. Just like most democRATS, real work is not in their skill set.
Chunky Yogurt, mister 5% is calling other people “not very bright”.
Obviously he never watches the show that he is on.
The only person(s) that comes as close to him in being oblivious is Krystal Ball and her giggling sidekick Sagar.
I’m reading where some States are ignoring court cases, and thousands of ballots are still being mailed out that are unverifiable.
Where are our Republican leaders on this? Not a few lone voices, but the whole?
I’ve been a poll worker for almost three years.
Awesome re being a poll worker. That’s what we need. Millions of them!!
In re the Pennsylvania case, I understand the headlines are not accurate. I am reading that the Pennsylvania Supreme Court is taking it up. Pennsylvania was not ordered by our Supreme Court, nor did they announce they would not abide by a Supreme Court decision.
It is NOT a permanent meltdown.
Just like Marxism, the evil RATs will appear elsewhere. Evil never dies.
