2022 Midterms: Will a red wave overcome a blue wall?
Fox news ^ | 01/01/2022 | Paul Steinhauser

Posted on 01/01/2022 12:19:59 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

The chairs of the two GOP congressional reelection committees sound very confident that Republicans will win back majorities in the House of Representatives and Senate in the 2022 midterms.

"We’re going to take back the Senate, absolutely," Sen. Rick Scott of Florida, the chair of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, vowed in an interview with Fox News two months ago.

And National Republican Congressional Committee chair Rep. Tom Emmer of Minnesota told Fox News a couple months ago, "Mark my words: Republicans will enter the 118th Congress with a majority and a record-breaking class of diverse members."

All this talk of a red wave seems like so much nonsense, when we all know that 10 months time is sufficient for the GOP to blow it by trying to out-charm the party of slavery.

Time and time again, the Stupid Party has snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.

We still have the option to go in person. Butt, Vegas and a large part of Reno will mail it in. Remember, 70+% of the state population is in vegas. Despite reed being dead, his minions still have a lot of power.

"So why Republicans did nothing to fix the steal while they had majorities and White House?"

Because COVID hadn't happened yet. They had no point of reference to work from. Not so now....

I believe every time someone says this Chuck Schumer laughs and kisses his S1 bill and the John Lewis voter bill and gets ready to abolish the filibuster paving the way for the next 50 years of a single party government aka dictatorship.

The GOP should win back the House fairly easily; the Senate’s a different story. The Repubs have flip opportunities there, but so do the dems.

If people haven’t learned that the election process is defunct and the judges either blackmailed or bought, IMO they are wasting hope on future election dog and pony shows.

The establishment Republican party has a remarkable ability to snatch defeat from the very jaws of victory, as in their willingness to compromise and concede to really aggressive liberal power grabs in terms of ballot chain of custody integrity and enrollment of only Constitutionally legitimate qualified voters. Names of dead people in the rolls, and non-citizens being accepted without question, are but two of the well-used strategies employed, and now with this mail-in vote, with only a cursory review of how that vote is managed, have compounded the problem endlessly.

The 2022 elections are the line in the sand.

Following my own experiences and observations, and bolstered by that amazing article in Time magazine about the left “fortifying” the 2020 election, I’m looking at the 2022 election as the moment when it becomes clear that the fraud we all witnessed in the fall of 2020 has become institutionalized.

I highly recommend everyone to find and read that Time magazine article. It’s an artful description of the way the left manipulated and pressed the system so they would win.

The example of Venezuela is also informative. Hugo Chavez understood that all he had to get was 50.1 percent of the vote, and then rule like a totalitarian. Our system’s safeguards against tyranny are more entrenched than South American countries, but the lesson that you don’t necessarily need to completely crush the opposition before starting to rule as a tyrant has been embraced by the left.

If I wake up the night after the 2022 elections and hear the happy cackling of NPR talking about the surprise wins for Democrats everywhere and slightly more members of the House and Senate, I’ll know the republic is dead. By good fortune, my wife was born and raised in a authoritarian country, and her tips about survival will be appreciated. As for myself, I’ll be thinking seriously about fifth generation warfare and how to protect God-given individual rights against intrusion from an out-of-control government.

On the other hand, if the Republicans sweep everything, then I’m just a cynical old man. I’ll go back to tending the garden.

What matters is what happens with the red states with RINO-controlled legislatures.

The RINOs are the ones who caved on the cheat-by-mail-in ballots, which gave it to the Vegetable in PA, GA, AZ, and MI.

Thankfully red states are making it more difficult to vote by mail and other ways to take away early voting. Hopefully it will be a wash. I definitely think the republicans will take the house. The senate? I’m not as confident.

All I want from the house is to stop all legislation and maybe a few impeachment votes. Other then that I only expect the failures to slow down. To me that’s worth getting the house at least.

They won't win if they do nothing about election fraud.

It will be a Democrat landslide again and the dems will dare the repubs to do anything about it.

And they (pubs Rinos) will stand there DUH-MBfounded and let them get away with it again.

I’m stunned that republicans are banned from mailing in ballots. It appears like only democrats have the ability too.

That means it's all over so don't vote.

"Red wave vs BLUE steal"

The way the Republicans fight to win an election, it's more like a Red Drip.
