And guess what: in the 2014 midterms, the Republicans gained seats in the House, Senate, and Governorships.

In the 2022 midterms, it was much more even, with Dems getting a net gain of one Senate seat and two Governorships, while the GOP gained 9 net seats in the House.

As a rebuttal, your point LITERALLY does not matter.

There is a definitive cause to the high gas prices that can be laid directly at Trump's feet: his decision to launch unilateral strikes on Iran (at Israel's advice and against the advice of his own counsel), thus resulting in the Strait of Hormuz (one of the biggest shipping lanes in the world, and one of the most important for energy transit) locking down tight for months on end.

Nobody cares that Biden and Obama may have had higher gas prices when accounting for inflation; they care that gas prices are higher now than they were at the beginning of the year. And everyone can point the finger at Trump, and justifiably so.

It's as simple as that.

That seat’s gone for more than 6 years. With a 6 year jump on ‘34 do you think Talifreako’s gonna screw up? Our candidates look old, fat, and tired. The younger generation is coming down with Stockholm Syndrome. Reagan said we’re only one generation away from losing our freedoms. It’s sad because none of Trump’s lieutenants will be acceptable in 2 years. Think HHH following up LBJ.

We just might have to turn to Rand Paul.
