Congressional seats are not won at the national level. I don't know why they base their predictions using national polls.

I bet I could any given district showing that most people like their own Representative - and yet hate Congress.

Trump is only a man.
Unfortunately, he IS the only one who can do what needs to be done.
I feel bad if anyone calling themselve a republican do not totally get behind Trump.
And as a consequence allow the lying cheating stealing left get control of our economy again.
I guess doubling our debt was not enough.
I guess I miss high unemployment and 1% gdp.
I guess they want our country invaded by who knows who?
Because Trump ALLEGEDLY shithole?
WOW

What is Axion?

Several of the lamestream media outlets including NBC got together and formed an even more liberal propaganda arm.

I feel a sober assessment isn't a bad thing, especially given the historical record of bad news for the incumbent party. I think, as others have said, the GOPe would rather lose seats than help Trump.

That said, along the lines of sober assessments, let us do a simple back-test of the forecasts:

The GOP is perfectly fine with losing the House and even the Senate if it will shorten Trump’s days in office. They want him gone!

Instead vote for a right side third party - just not Libertarian.

In the vote counting it will add to the total right side votes and the GOPe will see the votes they’re missing and not be able to blame the loss on turnout.

Axios = New Fake News Site! Do we really need another Trump Hating Fake News Site!

Axios won’t be scrambling in quite the same way. However, that doesn’t mean it doesn’t have any use for a major broadcaster. The site launched last week with a scroll-happy and highly readable presentation, not to mention a rather pivotal media partner in NBC News. NBC Universal is an investor in Axios and NBC News Chairman Andy Lack sits on the site’s board. As reported by the Wall Street Journal, NBC News is among a few partners — Business Insider and the Information are others — with which Axios is launching events. NBC Universal has invested $400 million in BuzzFeed and $200 million in Vox Media.

I don’t disagree. It is astonishing that so many candidates run because they can, not because the public wants them. Dole, McCain and Romney come to mind. I believe you are also right that some of the “Republican” candidates hate Trump and say so.

I do like it, however, when the media makes stuff up about how well their anointed candidate is doing. It disengages the Democratic voters and engages the Republican voters. Quite the opposite of what the media wants. You’d think they’d stop with the phony polls. But they conflate high poll numbers with winning. It’s more of, “If I say so, it becomes so,” magical thinking.

Crypto-liberals syndicating this thread multiple times and betting on
unelectable fringe parties to effect change...a recipe for MAGA was success

This is BS. The Dems are not going to pick up 24 house seats.

They picked up 27 in 1982, during Reagan’s first term.

The good news about Montana is that hopefully the GOP can take out Testor; that would be terrific.
