What really happened in the midterms, and Why: This midterm election was intended to turn out pretty much the way it did...and not just by Democrats

By every account, this was a strange election. Having had some time to think about it, I have determined the best explanation for November 8 is that this midterm election was intended to turn out pretty much the way it did.

Who intended it? The Republican establishment. Why? To get rid of Trump.

How did they do this, and where’s the proof? It wasn't too hard, and the proof is all around us.

This was a midterm election, so there are no real consequences beyond the control of Congress. This means that if you can control one house, even by a slim margin, you can stall the agenda of the other side. How large a majority you have is secondary and, in the long view, not that meaningful.

The establishment Republicans were willing to settle for less than expected numbers in the House to eradicate what they see as by far their biggest problem. This was their chance to bury Trump and avoid a great deal of damaging unpleasantness at very low to no real cost.

It makes sense. The Democrats funded the Trump senatorial candidates in the primaries because they thought they could make them lose. The Republicans seemed to think that might be a good idea. If necessary, they could help those candidates lose, which could seriously weaken Trump but still leave them with sufficient winners.

The Dem-supported Trump candidates lost, as per their plan. I have heard some pundits say that this was a clever move on the part of the Democrats. Maybe so, but they had a lot of help. Those candidates lost because if they had won, Trump would be almost assured of the presidency in 2024. Look at the contortions Mitch McConnell went through to keep Murkowski and deny the Trump candidate in Alaska.

“Result of Mid-Term: “The Vote” and the GOP are still dead”

I just had a unique idea. Trump should announce that he is changing his party to democrat. He has discovered that the dims have destroyed any hint of fair elections, and Trump is the only person who can clean up the mess. He could declare his change to the dems as a way to get politicks in America renewed. Either that or form a MAGA Party.
