Biden’s unexpectedly good night
The Hill ^ | 11/09/2022 | AMIE PARNES AND ALEX GANGITANO

f there was one message that summed up how President Biden was feeling on the heels of Tuesday’s midterms, it came in the form of a tweet.

“I ain’t dead and I’m not gonna die,” Biden said in an old video from 2020 shared again on Wednesday afternoon by White House digital director Rob Flaherty.

It was an attitude reflected among Democrats, who were feeling hopeful with the results that had come in: President Biden had a good night. In fact, it was much better than expected.

“I honestly thought we’d all be writing the obituary today on President Biden and our party,” one top party strategist acknowledged. “And while we’re still a long way from the finish line, I think we’re all feeling good about Biden and where things stand.”

Good.

Now the democrats can’t dump Biden.

They’re stuck with him for 2024.

Because the Democrats should have been crushed. But, they weren’t.

Perhaps the silver lining in the phony “Dementia Joe overperformed” narrative is that it makes it substantially more likely that the Dems will be saddled with the old coot in ‘24, as it gives him and “Dr Jill” ammo in refusing to be pushed aside.

"How is losing the house no matter the number and maybe the senate a good night old pudding pants??"

Ha ha ha! How quickly we forget. Even when Republicans have a slim majority in the House and Senate, they choose to "share power" with the Democrats. That's how Biden will have more than an unexpectedly good night.

Maybe Scalise will stop sharing.

I would hope that should Scalise become Speaker, that the power sharing concept would strongly be rejected.

If the republicans win the house and lose the senate it could be a very bad night for the Biden Crime Family. The house won't be able to pass any significant legislation that Shumer won't declare dead on arrival. The only thing the house can do is investigate, oversite, and impeach.

Catturd: Everyone chins up! We’re going to win the House and still have a chance in the Senate. That’s all we needed to stop the madness, Let the Democrat investigations begin. Blue states want to live broke, in filth, and crime. Let them have it. They’ll get what they voted for.
